Those darned allergies #MFRWauthor

This is going to be one short post. I don’t suffer from allergies. At one time I indicated an allergy to mold, cats, and dogs, but that’s been 50 years ago. I Allergiestook shots for it. Once hubby and I started driving truck and roaming all over the U.S., I lost my allergies. Hubby, on the other hand, is allergic to the world of the American South-Southeast.

When we moved home to Virginia after living in San Francisco, he was horribly sick for weeks. He lost his voice, his eyes leaked, his nose ran, and his throat was raw. Even after all of that cleared up, he was miserable. Now mind you, we lived right in the civic center area of San Francisco, on a major thoroughfare with heavy traffic and buses, etc. Soot and cinders found there way into any open window. There, he was fine. But put himVirginia spring anywhere near Virginia pollen, plants and trees, and he about dies. This is the reason we retired in the Northwest and not in the home of my heart, the Southeast.

So how does hubby deal with his allergies? Well, he takes OTC medications once a day and for his nose and sinuses he uses one of those saltwater pot thingys. When the pollen hits here or grass is being cut, he stays inside as much as possible. And he gives in to my pampering. Well, as much pampering as I do. Other than that (or taking allergy shots) is there any other way to deal with the seasonal Mother Nature?
