Anyone who knows me in real life knows that I suffer from absolutely horrific allergies. I'm allergic to dust, pollens, pets, and pretty much every other airborne allergen known to man. On a bad allergy day, I am basically a Zombie. I get itchy, watery eyes, a nose that runs like a hot water faucet, stuffy brain syndrome, zillions of sneezes, and don't get me started on sinus pain and pressure. Ugh. If my allergies are flaring up enough, I am pretty much down for the count the entire day. It really does get in the way of enjoying life.
We are a multiple pet household, and also happen to live in one of the 35 Sneeziest and Wheeziest Cities in the United States. (This is calculated by pollen counts, etc.) So obviously, I have to be very proactive when it comes to keeping my allergies at bay. Aside from vacuuming and dusting often to help cut down on allergens, we also clean the air. An air purifier is a wonderful way to control the allergens and odors in your home. In fact, the Honeywell QuietClean® Air Purifier takes up to 99% of the funk out of your living space. Pretty nifty, right? It's literally a God-send for allergy sufferers like me.

During the colder months, I am a hermit. No, really. I am. After 20 years in the south, I definitely lost my ability to handle cold. Here in the Cleveland, Ohio suburbs, it gets downright frigid. The last 2 winters have been especially brutal, with temps often dipping well into the negatives. My son didn't get out of school for Snow Days. He had "Cold Days". Here, they close schools if temps are below -15 degrees. We had a few weeks of closed days.
Now that spring is finally here and I can venture outdoors without freezing to death, I am trying to be as active as possible. Whether it's bike riding, hiking at one of our gorgeous parks, or swimming, I just love getting outdoors with my family. Where winters are brutal, Ohio summers are amazing. Did you know that those with super-active lifestyles have unique needs when it comes to personal care? The rigorous and hectic conditions faced by athletes is sure to tighten up and strengthen the body’s core no doubt but those same conditions can wreak havoc on the skin. Most people do not take into consideration that when working out, playing a sport or just leading active lifestyles, their skin deals with the elements of salt, sweat, wind, heat, sun and chlorine. These elements throw off the natural and all important pH balance of the epidermis causing uneven, dry or excessively oily skin. Other individual products may address pH balance but DERMASPORT is the first full line of facial products that were specifically created to restore it. ***Disclosure: I received complimentary samples to facilitate my review.

Of course flowers, gadgets, and things that sparkle are always appreciated, but I definitely don't require them. This is more than likely because I am the "Queen of Cheap" when it comes to having any money spent on me. I'd much rather use it for something practical or to spoil the kiddos.
One thing I DO require on Mother's Day is delicious food. Hey, I am a foodie, and I always appreciate a good meal. If I don't have to cook it for once. even better. Tonight, my 15 year old, Kyle, wanted to make dinner for me as an early Mother's Day gift. He really enjoys cooking, and loves learning how to prepare easy, creative new dishes.

Are You A Sneezy Snotty Mess? Flonase® Allergy Relief Is Now Available Without A Prescription5/8/2015 ***Disclosure: I received complimentary samples to facilitate my review. No other compensation was provided, and all opinions are 100% honest and have not been influenced in any way. Please consult a trusted physician before starting any new medications.*** If you know me in real life, or even on Facebook, you probably are well aware of the fact that I suffer from severe allergies. Wait. Severe is an understatement. Some days, I truly feel like my head is about to explode. My sinuses feel like they're on fire, my eyes are itchy and watery, and my nose leaks like a hot water faucet that won't turn off all the way. I won't even get into the sneezing fits, sore throat, and red, raw skin from blowing my nose constantly. Just trust me when I say I have BAD allergies. Very, very bad.
My usual allergy medications have never really worked the way I needed them to. I would usually take a well-known OTC remedy that is famous for causing drowsiness. Did it actually make my symptoms better? Meh. I can't really be sure. I was often too sleepy to think about much other than a nap. Obviously, with kids that need to be attended to, Mommy can't be a constant zombie. That simply doesn't work. Recently, I learned that Flonase ® Allergy Relief is now available without a prescription. And, it's full prescription strength. I was excited to try it, since this is one of the few allergy medications I had not tried before. Plus, the fact that it's non-drowsy? MAJOR brownie points there. ***Disclosure: I received complimentary samples to facilitate my review. No other compensation has been provided, and all opinions are 100% honest and have not been influenced in any way.*** It's finally warm enough here in the Cleveland, Ohio suburbs that I can open up my windows and let some fresh air in. There's just something about this time of year that gives me the urge to freshen everything up, from my wardrobe to my home. After all, springtime is a time for renewal, right?
Since I have officially embarked on my spring cleaning mission, of course I wanted to enlist the help of my family. They help make the messes and the clutter, so they should help clean it up. At least I think so. Mom shouldn't be stuck doing it all. Plus, cleaning together as a family can actually be fun, and it helps teach children important life skills. One day, they will have to learn how to take care of a home themselves, without Mom's help. Or is that just wishful thinking? Since I do involve the littles in household chores, I am incredibly picky about what products I use. I am not about to hand fairly young children bottles full of potentially deadly chemicals. Basically, if it has incredibly frightening warnings or a laundry list of ingredients that I couldn't pronounce if I tried, my kids don't get to handle it. I am not willing to risk my kids' health or even their lives, so I play it safe by choosing natural, eco-friendly cleaning products like the ones offered by Swanson Healthy Home. These products contain nature's powerhouse ingredients, such as citrus and other essential oils, vinegar, and biodegradable, Earth-friendly plant based extracts. |
