Tide = Evil
So...
This weekend Mack and I bought detergent (Tide) and did lots of laundry. Clothes, sheets, towels, etc. Tuesday at work, my arms started turning red. So did my face, back... etc. So about 2:45 I headed out. First to Walgreens to get benadryl, then the my house to get all of the Tide-tainted laundry, then to Mack's mom's. Started doing laundry and spent some time on the couch. After some laundry happened, Rebecca and I got dinner and then at almost 8pm I headed home. So I figured out it was Tide because I know I'm not allergic to the cat, I haven't changed any other factors like bodywash, lotion, shampoo, deodorant... I was working at the same place, driving the same car and living in the same home. So the morning of, I noticed a small rash on my upper left arm. I slept on that side in bed... (sheets washed with Tide). Then I was in jeans and a t-shirt that were both washed in Tide... So yeah... I figured it out. Around 1 at work I was feeling itchy, kinda hot and then a little dizzy. So Gerald let me go home/to wash clothes/get out of the one's I was in. My knees were red from my jeans rubbing against them. But after I changed, took benadryl, and lotioned up I felt much better and my skin looked better.
It was nice to get off early, even if I had a rash/skin reaction...
We have inventory at work this week and it sucks. I'm going to NOLA Saturday night after work. My mom's days off are Sunday and Monday so I'll get to see her and the rest of the family. Not sure of the exact day that I'll be back... We'll see how it goes. I'm excited about going. I don't have to work from Sunday until next Monday. I'm hoping to work on getting a new job. I might try US Support, where I can have 2 or 3 days off... but it's one of those calling centers... So I hear that sucks... But I'd like to try something and I think I would make more money there like $10/hour and maybe even get benefits... So I'm gonna try it.
Later.
