roups.com): Cottonwoods are really crummy trees. I don't know why people even plant them. They drive allergy sufferers crazy, they drop fuzzy seed all over the cars. They don't live all that long, and blow over easily. At least you'd think people would plant the cottonless variety! I don't know those trees. The one that I have plenty of, and which makes a mess in the spring is oaks. They shed those long seed pod gold-colored fuzzy thingies, and I get literally mounds of them in the driveway, and then the pollen gets drug in the house, they leave my truck yellow and the windshield gets caked with them. Man, my eyes are watering already just thinking about them. Purrs for your allergies, Pam. I use Claritin D, but with the recent limitations to how much you can buy at a time, sometimes I run out before I can get to the store for more. -- Cheryl |

I use Claritin D, but with the recent limitations to how much you can buy at a time, sometimes I run out before I can get to the store for more. Just to let you know: if you can get by with just the antihistamine, without requiring the decongestant, it is available over-the-counter without the quantity restrictions. I use the generic equivalent, Loratidine, on a daily basis, having bought a pack of two 100-tablet bottles at my local "Sam's Club" warehouse store. I am under doctor's orders not to use any decongestants, since I am on blood-pressure-lowering medications and most decongestants raise your blood pressure. -- John F.

I'm very allergic to cottonwooe trees, and this year, for whatever reason they are seriously affecting my eyesight. I even enlarged my type to 24 font and it was still blurry. So if I make typing, spelling and other errors, please forgive me, or bear with me for the next couple of weeks or so. pam S. feeling sorry for her sehl -- http://www.mousertails.blogspot.com Mouser Tails: The voyages of the Mouser I'm not bad...I'm just written that way |
