Every spring, I get nailed with an allergy. It is ferocious. I hate to take meds as they knock my socks off and I still have to work. As a result, I am sneezing, coughing, aching, sinus headaches, using any available paper goods to blow my nose.... Waiting for it to end. This usually lasts 3 weeks.

I know the culprit and I know I just have to live with it. Around here they are call "hedge bushes". At a distance, they are pretty. They are all over and my head tells me when they start to bloom. Too many to eradicate although I don't have any growing around the house. Also, they serve a purpose. The bees love them!

Can anyone give my enemy a name?
