Allergic to Your Bathing Suit? Store Coupons. Grooming.


“Ever spent the weekend at the beach? After a few days in a bathing suit, chances are you experienced that not-so-fresh feeling. But despite what your mother told you, the discomfort may not be caused by a damp suit, but rather the fabric itself.

Say, what? Bear with us. Because of over-exposure, latex allergies are nearing epidemic levels: According to the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology, between one and six percent of the population is allergic to the stuff, which can cause skin irritations, rashes, and more.
So what does this have to do with your bikini? Most swimsuits are made out of potentially allergy-inducing latex--along with petrochemical-based nylon, the production of which creates nitrous oxide, a greenhouse gas 310 times more potent than carbon dioxide. But we digress.”

Today:

I groomed "Pancake".  He is a BIG black and white Schnauzer looking dog.  I used to do both their dogs, but their other big dog passed on.  I had to quit doing them, as they wanted both dogs done on the same day, and it was just too much for me.  But as Pancake is going to the doctor tomorrow for his shots and check up, I groomed him for them.

Jay put the vinyl siding and trim back on the patio door, so that is done.

Tomorrow, Misty, Mikey, and little Paco are all going for their surgeries.  Dental for for all three, and neutering for Mikey and Paco.  They have all been on antibiotics for the last four days getting ready for this.




I still have to bathe them today.
