Stupid tree

So the problem tree at the front of our house is just a pest. Not only does it have long roots that threaten to ruin our driveway even though they have been removed already it also has yucky flowers. I use the word flowers loosely. They are funny hangy flowery things covered on pollen that then drops all over the road, path, cars, driveway - you name it!! During the day they are covered in bees and you can hear the constant hum of buzzy bees. In my old age I am now sensitive to this stupid all encompassing pollen and it makes me feel itchy and sneezey - grrrrrrr Stupid trees! I can't remember how long this yucky pollen stuff lasts - hopefully not long. As opposed to our beautiful gum tree which always looks lovely, doesn't make me sneeze and for a few months of the year brings the 'pretty birds to the yard' - that tree we love. Why didn't they plant those tress up and down the street?? So today I am grateful for gumtrees - but not stupid trees.
