Not knowing WHAT TO MAKE OF this allergy season

Trees are in full bloom everywhere, but where are my allergies? Just wondering. 

I'm completely AT A LOSS trying to figure out and explain what happened to my allergies this year. My hay fever never really KICKED IN, and I don't quite know WHAT TO MAKE OF IT. Don't get me wrong; I'm definitely not complaining. In fact, I'm grateful. Winter HUNG AROUND longer than we expected in the Northeastern U.S., so that may have kept the pollen AT BAY. I'm allergic to tree pollen. However, trees are now either in full bloom or sprouting their BUDS, and tree pollen is ON ITS WAY DOWN. Basically, my allergy season is pretty much over, and I only POPPED one single allergy medication back in early March. I'm definitely curious as to what will happen next year.

Have any of you LUCKED OUT this year, as well, and somehow EVADED seasonal allergies?
