Allergies...........
Allergies....(sigh).... I hate them. I'm not talking about any other kind of allergy either. I have these great allergies that just happen to make me break out in a rash and make me spike a fever. Sounds great doesn't it?
Well, it all begins on I think it was Sunday night. I started to break out then and I was miserable all week so far. This is the first day I'm back this week and I already want to be at home sleeping. I feel a little overwhelmed, but that's okay. On Monday, my brother walks upstairs and my mom and I already had a feeling I was staying home the next day. He looked in the pantry at all of the cereal my mom just got. I don't now how it happened but right in the front of the box in bold letters it says,"Crunchy gold flakes with WHOLE ROLLED OATS WITH GRANOLA CLUSTERS!" Only if you could have seen the look on my face. I have a few allergies to consider when I'm eating, and I'll list them out and remember this only the food allergies.
(they're listed from most severe down)

Only if you could have seen the look on my face. I have a few allergies to consider when I'm eating, and I'll list them out and remember this only the food allergies.
(they're listed from most severe down)
- Oats, whole rolled oats or the flour made with it (so oatmeal is out)
- I would have to say it would be malted barley flour (in bread so yeah I can't eat bread everyday)
- This one would be maltodextrin (if you don't know what this is, it keeps stuff from bunching together, so coated potato chips and cookies are out)
- This is the newest one; red dye 40 (shampoo, fruit drinks and different sodas)
Now, since I am going to be 17 and I'm used to having all of these allergies, I had to bend my diet and what I eat. If you think vitamins may work, nope. I've tried; vitamins have maltodextrin in them. I don't know why I have the allergies either, they're just I guess a part of me. My skin is also very sensitive, so I can't wear fake jewelry. One allergy I forgot to mention was my allergy to white chocolate. Don't even ask how I'm allergic to that.... Because I have no idea.

Wow, LeAnne. That's a lot of alergy stuff ya got there. O_O;;
Maybe it will go away one day.
Ya know, don't feel too bad because it could be worse. You could be a cripple, or a burn victum, or dying of cancer, or reincarnated into a toilet. That would really suck...
Poor you... all those allergies! But I have heard that our bodies go through changes every seven years and that includes our responses to allergens. Maybe you will grow out of some of them. ***Fingers crossed***
Hi, LeAnn,
I don't know if you'll get this, but I just read your comment about signing onto the old Blogger. The problem is that you will only be allowed to sign on for a few times before they block you and insist that you change to the new Google account. I was able to sign in a few times under the old Blogger, too, but then they cut me off.
Just to be safe, you should change to the new Blogger so that you can get to it no matter what.
Thanks for being so prompt in checking out your blog! :-)
