Ahhh--Chuuu

Dear Jen and Tom,
I have severe indoor allergies but hate taking medication. I do take medication when I need it, but I keep my home pretty tidy so it’s not that much of a hassle when I’m at home. My husband calls me a neat freak, but it’s more cleanliness I prefer. He would probably just die if he knew I was complaining about this, but this is truly a disaster story. On our honeymoon we went to the Swiss Alps. We stayed in a cozy little private cottage and we even went skiing on some smaller mountains most of the days of our trip. However, cottage is a word we typically associate with sweet, this however was not. It was so dusty and dirty I had a sneezing attack. The first night in my husband had to run out and get me some medication. It knocked me right out and he was left alone to watch the fire for hours until he could sleep! So much for romance! I had to request a cleaning crew to come in and totally de-allergen the entire place! It was horrible and I felt a little ridiculous but there was no way I could have survived that!

Love Always,
Cynthia, CO
