It's official: I'm allergic to rainy days and Mondays.
Yesterday (Monday) I was sneezing so bad that I had to take some Benadryl.
Today, it's rainy and I'm sneezing again. More Benadryl.
Yup, yup. I'm allergic all right.
Rainy days and Mondays.
Mornings, too, probably.

It could be worse, though. It could be like the planet in that story by Ray Bradbury where it rains all day, every day... Summer in a Day I think it's called.

It was made into a film some years ago, so try youtube.

Rainy days mean mold. Mold means a nasty headache, and the end of all activity. Mondays for me means I get to spend time with my sweetheart-it's his day off. We've had rain but that was last week; this week it's dry and there's pollen out-argh! Sneezing and allergy pills are in demand!

No, he gets two (Sunday & Monday), but he works overnights and needs to recover. He works at Wally World, aka Walmart.

He only gets one day off a week? What does he work at?

That was a hit by the Carpenters, Rainy Days and Mondays, and now I have that track going on in my head! Here it's more like April Showers, we had a wonderful warm day yesterday, and today's it's rain and thunder, crazy weather for sure!

It looked like rain yesterday here but it turned off pretty. It's not rained since a week ago. The pollen is flying like crazy. You can see yellow drifts of it flying in the wind.

Nope! The Benadryl has done its job and I'm no longer sneezing my head off.

No, because it's wet out. I'm doing laundry instead.

Yup. Some days seem like just one big allergen. This morning I awoke with an itchy redness on my throat right about where the thyroid is.

So, rainy days and Mondays get you down?
Yeah, I have that song stuck in my head now...
It's good that the Benadryl helped make you feel better.

Do you gargle for your sore throat or take cough syrup/drops?
