Beth22 Awesome about your allergies Beth! Now that you say that I just realized that I too am feeling so much less allergic this spring. I'm usually miserable as soon as the trees start to bud out and Ive been waiting and waiting for the sneezing and congestion - and I'm not getting it! Even after working in my yard AND turning my compost heap last weekend. You must be right about the connection between smoking and the allergies. We are really close together in our quits. I am 61 days smoke free. Let's both keep it up - it's sooo great! So from Wisconsin to Oklahoma - have a great day.
