This year has been the worst for my allergies. I never even had allergies up until about 4 years ago
I have been miserable all summer--headaches, sinus infections, stuffed up, sore throat, sneezing, congestion, all that good stuff--the best the doctor could do was give me an antibiotic for it all. It worked for that week, but then came back. The week I spent at the beach this summer was the best--just breathing in the sea air
I have never, ever looked forward to winter in my life, but this year I am, just to get all of the pollens out of the air.

I also am allergic to cats, unfortunately. It seems that short haired cats bother me much more than long haired cats too.
