Slippery when pollen: Windows open! Windows shut!

I love the sunny days. Spring cleaning. White sheets drying on the line…whoops! Indoors, any flat surfaces coated yellow are as slippery underfoot–on tile and wood floors–as spilled baby powder or flour. The next rain may bring puddles outlined in yellow. In the meantime, what’s your dusting hack for pollen?

Hang in there to all who have allergies!

Pollen

Pollen, originally uploaded by captjoe06.

Got to work at 5:00AM and the water was covered in pollen. It was everywhere.
Last night on our porch at the homestead The Bean was walking around barefoot.
Her feet were covered in pollen and when I noted it to her she exclaimed- “I’ve been pollinated”!
