Luxuriant spring growth brought on by good winter rains means more pollen in the air. Consequently I peer at this screen through bleary eyes while breathing through an itchy and runny proboscis. The old “ring of pineapple” on the morning muesli trick, with its natural anti histamines, is obviously overwhelmed today.

This is going to sound crazy, and definitely not intended for anyone else to try, but, when my eyes are tearing to the tune of “Cry Me a River”, I put a dab of Vick’s Vapo Rub on the lids before I go to bed. My eyes actually tear even more for a while, but, it seems to help when I awake in the morning. 🙂
