So, I was feeling alone in my battle of the allergies. People can only take so much allergy talk before their eyes glaze over and they think how can I get away with out hurting her feelings? My husband admitted to me he goes numb when the allergy chatter starts. I so wanted to be one of those women whose husband would say "I never heard her complain once!" and he would be so proud of me he would cry. Oh well. I felt I wasn't getting enough sympathy in my trials so now I complan sometimes to remind Jed that it is hard for me. A hug works, I don't expect anyone to come up with any answers for me.
I could journal- in a journal, but a blog can get people together. I could help someone. They could help me. How many people have blogged for thereapy? Hmmm.
I kept a food log for six weeks. It was good but it was private and I certainly listed all the pies I ate on Thanksgiving for dinner! All allergy laden.
I am thankful that it is myself with allergies and not my kids. I think that would be harder. I do think if it was my kids I would take it more seriously and take care of them better than I take care of myself. Interesting thoughts. So, if you're interested for any reason or have allergies yourself- I plan on blogging my journey. Hopefully this journey will be one back to better health and good food choices!
