I Can’t Breathe

The main reason I was so late in posting anything yesterday was because I couldn’t breathe.

Now it is true, I do have asthma and there are many times that I truly have a little difficulty breathing, but I’m not referring to this.

I’m talking about allergies. Really bad allergies. The kind that make your nose so stuffy that you can’t get even a smidgeon of air through either nostril.

I’m allergic to house dust and that is how it affects me.

Yesterday I decided to do a little light dusting around the house. I even put on my cute little yellow masks that I wear solely for this purpose.

It didn’t help.

First my nose started running horribly and I ended up using like a half box of tissues.

My eyes started itching uncontrollably.

. . .and I couldn’t breathe!

Then my Christopher did the most amazing thing.

He called and scheduled someone to come and clean my house.

Not just once.

But every week.

My hubby is: “da bomb diggity bomb”!!

  • Mainly a midwife

    Your hubby gets big points for that!!!

  • Reluctant Housewife

    I’m allergic to cats and that’s exactly the type of reaction I have when they’re around. It’s a horrible feeling. I’m so glad you’re not going to have to deal with the dust anymore. Yay!

  • Jonny’s Mommy

    OK. I need your husband to call my husband and give him some tips! Like today! :-) Actually, my husband cleans most of the time so I an’t really say anything.

  • Jennie

    that is so great… your husband obviously rocks.,… my allergies and sinuses always act up, .like this mornign when I woke up and could only breath out of one side of my nose and my throat was so hoarse that I sounded like a boy ….

  • Live.Love.Eat

    Wow, I’m gonna try that whole not breathing, itchy eye thing thing and maybe I’ll get a housekeeper :) SO just kidding!!!!!! I heard that’s an awful feeling, being allergic to dust and the like. But I am glad for you to have someone come in weekly. What a load off!!!!!!!!!

  • Mommy2Twinkies-Deb

    That’s terrible about the dust. I don’t know what I’d do without my cleaner! Huge kudos to your hubby.

  • Kameron

    I have allergies too so i feel you on the cleaning. I can’t even sweep the floor without having issues. Dang, I wish we had the money for a housekeeper. I would love it!!

  • foreverfoldinglaundry

    Ooh, that’s fantastic!!! Major points for him on that one!

  • Vic

    I was brought to your blog by the CF Husband blog and I was intrigued by the fact you have a daughter my age. I am 17 and I have been sick since 2005 with Lyme disease and I am always looking around for other families going through life in other areas. Your blog is interesting I too have started to sleep in a little later on Christmas! :)
