I have heard the same thing. DH used to be allergic (low grade allergy) to cats, but after slowly being around them his allergies seem to have disappeared.

The girl I mentioned in my story did end up having a bunch of small allergies. She discovered them at about 5 YO. Nothing life threatening. More along the lines of stuffy nose, rash, etc. Her mom came complaining to me about her Dr and looking for a new one because he told her that the allergies probably developed from being under-exposed to them. That was funny because I warned her about that when her DD was 2, but she told me I was crazy.

Good Morning CDMWR!

TGIF - how is everyone?
MM - I hope DD is feeling better this morning?

Coop - chin up.

Fin - I had heard that too about having pets, depending on severity as you said. I had read a study that referred to stimulating the immune system, I'll see if I can find it. DS can be fine with pets, and then out of the blue can have a near anaphylaxis with certain cats. It's weird and scary.

A local 15 year-old boy died yesterday from peanut allergy, he ate a cookie that his mom had bought. He had a known peanut allergy, and although they were at home, they had no epipen handy. A very sad story .

Okay, enough of that, it's Friday, bring your favorite feel-good music.

I have an interview with walmart today.
What do I wear to an interview at walmart?

Usually I go based off how nice the employees dress but everyone I see looks so sloppy and just seem to wear whatever resembles navy and khaki.

I have a pair of grey pants from american eagle, they look like khaki's but are a dark stone grey.
I don't know what kind of top to pair it with.
And I have black underarmor running shoes, flip flops and uggs still. No new shoe additions.

Any ideas on what in the world I could possibly wear? Use the pants as a starting block because my dress pants and tennis shoes look ridiculous.

Go back and look at the responses we gave you to the exact same question when you asked it 3 months ago, and 3 months before that, and then 3 months before that, ad infinitim.

That's scarey! I can't even imagine how that mother feels. So, so sad.

Anyone have exciting plans for the weekend? I think we are going to try and get more pictures of DS tomorrow. We have the head shot needed for yearbook, but want to get some others out and about.

Then we are going to ride our bikes to a little festival the next town over. Not sure what it's about - our friends in the neighborhood asked if we wanted to go and we said sure. We're easy!

Yes, txt - I think we are all done in the advice department. You should be old enough to figure it out for yourself.

I don't have time.
It's 8:46 and my interview is at 11.

It's just walmart....are jeans fine for an interview? Jeans, tennis shoes and a vneck tshirt or a button up tshirt.

Or should I go the route of the grey pants and vneck or button up and my tennis shoes?

Seriously pressed for time here and i have no idea what to wear to a walmart interview because in my mind its walmart who gives a damn but then again I really need a job and with walmart I dont know whats too dressed up or whats too dressed down....
