    Dear trees:
    Ah. It's been nice, so you're taking it as license to do whatever foul, depraved things that you trees do. I really don't care what you do, but I must draw the line when it ends up in my nostrils, eyes, and so forth. So now I have to go on the loopy pills until May. Loopy pills are expensive. I don't want to be poor and loopy! You could have at least provided some warning.
    Yours,

    At least I don't leave slime trails.

    Every year at about this time I feel like I am bleeding to death through my eyes. I have to manually unseal my eyelids when I get out of bed and after rinsing them out with warm water, they drip and water all day long to the point to where I look like I am crying all of the time. At this point not even allergy pills help. Soooo glad we are expecting some rain later in the week.
    Other than the eyes, the allergy pills take care of everything else except the blahs from having my eyes burning all of the time so I guess I shouldn't complain.

    allergy seasons are miserable.

    Patanol. Seriously, if your insurance will cover it, Patanol. For all my allergies I never really had conjunctivitis until last year when it looked like I was draining a sinus infection out of my left eye. It was so bad I thought it was infected, but my doctor took one look and told me it was allergic.

    +1 I need them for about 4 days a year, but I really need them for those days.

    My eye doc suggested Alaway as a less expensive alternative, if insurance wouldn't cover Patanol. Per her - not quite as good, but works sort of the same way.

    Of course, check with your doc.

    Thanks, all.

    We're down to 2 in the selection process. None of the ones we've talked to (and we've talked to a lot) would actually hire someone (or, perhaps more accurately, coordinate someone) to do the repairs. I'm working from their contacts. I think we're just in a really busy real estate season here. Houses are going under contract in a week or less fairly often.

    Thanks We hope someone else will think so!

    We are staying in town for now - downsizing in a big way. Our plan is to rent a small apartment for a while. We need less house to maintain for right now. I'm planning to go back to school and my DH has a soft money job, so flexibility is good!
