Allergies!!!

I have decided that the doctors really don't know what they are talking about when it comes to allergies.

They told me I could try the drops that go under your tongue, if I wanted. The problem, they aren't as affective and insurance doesn't cover them.  They also gave me a new nasal spray to help the swelling-it seems to be working, why didn't they give this to me years ago? And did you know that you can take double or more the amount of antihistamine? They never told me that one either, until I was on the shots. 

Also, now that I took the shots for 9 months and quit, my body has decided it doesn't like things that I wasn't allergic to before.  I went out and cut the ground cover way back in front of the house. I wore gloves because they drip this white, milky, sticky stuff. Sometimes I end up with a few itchy bumps. This was what I got this time. Yes, blisters and bumps-very itchy- benadryl is my friend.

Really? I can tell summer is going to be a challenge.

Twins

I went to the store to spent my gift certificate- I bought some new pants. And couldn't resist buying Hope and Baelie matching outfits that were on sale.

                                                                        Cute girls.

New paint

We have lived in this house for almost 8 years and I have decide that it needs a new look. So I bought some paint and got to it. I painted the living room light green and brown- Hope helped out of course.

 Hope also took a picture of me- not sure how she did it with the camera upside down-but she did.

I only went part way up with the brown on 2 of the walls. I am going to put a wood trim around it/when Loren gets it cut for me.


Then I repainted the entry way...

                                                            This is the before look

                                                                        The new look

Next is to finish Hopes room-doing a light blue with princess border. And I want to paint the stair wall in the family room-not sure what color yet.

All of the kids, now think I need to do their rooms.
