I'm not sure. I just hear about Texan Allergy over and over again on the radio. They test you for what allergies you have and then design a drop formula that you take daily to alleviate the allergy symptoms, to the point where you no longer feel the effects of seasonal allergies. MH has terrible allergies. His dr offered up drops that go on the tongue instead of his weekly shots (he gets 1 in each arm). But it isn’t covered by insurance or isn’t covered much.,.i can’t remember. But it was going to cost $300 a month. I told him he needed to embrace being a pin cushion because we were not paying that. Lol. Now if it was S, I might pay it. But he’s a big boy, he can get the shot.

Check out www.asensadrops.com and tell me if you think it's similar. I've had that webpage saved in my phone since I heard about it on the radio. Looks interesting! Yeah, that looks pretty similar. Same concept. I figure if I can get Cadence on them now then she won't have to deal with them when she is older.....if it actually works.

I'm sure both of mine would benefit from it.

I get underground lines!!! I'm so excited! I have a lot of work to do but I'm about to lay down for a few minutes. I spent the morning in the bathroom again and just feel drained. nam2013 I finished all 4 seasons on Netflix of The Great British Baking Show. Now I'm watching Mary and Paul's show to teach you how to bake lol. I made focaccia with fresh herbs, plum tomatoes and parmesan last night. From scratch. Took me hours but it was soooo good. My dad asked "how long did that take you? You should do it more often!" Lol.

Mh has apologized and says he'll step it up. I told him I feel like he's making everything harder for me rather than helping. So hopefully, he'll listen and get back on track.

If you try it out, let me know. I'm sure both of mine would benefit from it. I'm looking at Greater Austin Allergy (they take both mine and Cadence's insurance). I can schedule the appointment online. Since it is both me and her, I should do 2 separate appts, right? He has 2 blocks one right after the other, I could do that. Maybe I should call them...

Those that buy the slip on Toms, do your kids have wide feet? I bought some slip on shoes for Evie Friday, kind of like vans, but they were from Payless because cheap. She could not shove her fat feet in them...I took them back and she could get the next size up on, but they were way too long. I don't think she can wear slip ons because chub feet, but I want her to be able to for ease.

mwhip I don't think M's are that wide. I have a friend that can't wear Toms because of that reason though.

Hi hi - thanks for the well wishes - I think every is a bit relieved she's at peace now. Def a rough week with Barbara Bush too.
So my mom and my MIL are going to watch the kids, so this will be an adventure. Especially since at 12:30am all of us were up with j with a tummy ache and N screaming bc she doesn't sleep lately. I have a feeling a kid will sleep with each grandma every night. Whatever it takes. I'm a bit panicked about leaving them, but the doctor said j should be okay since no fever, blood, or dehydration.. hoping it continues that way.

mwhip the arch of my foot is high and that definitely makes toms a little difficult to get on, but once they’re worn in they fit my wide high arched feet like a glove.

Hi! It’s been a busy morning here. Work is finally starting to pick up again which is great, but I will be gone half of next week so i just feel a little flustered.
I’m also in charge of running a babysitting class tomorrow. There are 55 fifth graders signed up. Luckily, I don’t have to do much durning the class, but prepping for it has been time consuming.
Plus we’re still working on cleaning out our basement so they can spray insulation when we’re gone next week, and dh just hired another full time employee so he’s a little nervous and we’re trying to come up with new ways to organize his office. Plus a bunch of other things going on this week. Oof.

Morning. FX you get answers at the appointment. lfigSorry about Yh's lack of help. klong11 Glad he apologized. tallb I would be a little anxious about leaving the kids too, but you deserve a break. Hopefully the kids will be better over the long weekend so you can enjoy the kid-free time.

Nothing but work today. I would like to try to get to the gym after work, but not sure if that can happen yet. It's been a few days since I didn't go on my day off. Thanks for the sleep help websites vino and tgrimes. I looked at them briefly and it's good information. I'll do a bit more reading and plan to start with M2 in the next week or so.

So I booked the appointments. When I changed the reasoning to "allergy consult for new patient" the appointment length went from 15 minutes to an hour....I booked 2 appointments, one for me, one for Cadence. Maybe they'll be able to do us at the same time and it won't actually take 2 hours. yeesh.

Morning ladies. Allergies suck klong11. Luckily Maddie's are mild and Cass doesn't show too many signs of them yet. I had horrible allergies until I was about 25. Those Toms are so cute. I need to use restraint though. The kids have enough shoes and they are such a PITA to buy online because the sizing varies so much from brand to brand. I've been ready for the weekend since the week started.

Toms aren’t true slip ons in that size, they gave a Velcro strap over the top.

It is a cold, wet, slushy mess outside. H tested positive for strep. He decided not to test S after he discovered an EI, since the antibiotics will treat both. He also told me that her remaining tube is starting to come out. We are all stocked up on ibuprofen and antibiotics.
