SIL and neice coming in this weekend

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 
Any one know of a good way to anti-allergy proof the house? My SIL is very allergic to animals and we have 2 dogs and a cat. I have vacuumed the room she will be staying in and am keeping the animals out. I am going to Fabreeze, allergy kind every day until Friday. Is there anything else I can do?

Anyway, they come on Friday and will be here until Sunday. We are going to go to Amicola Falls, since SIL likes to take pictures. Amicola has beautiful hiking trails and waterfalls. I gotta look up on the web and see if I can find anything else to do. My niece wants to go to White Waters but last weekend was the last weekend. No big loss there, since it is so expensive anyway.

They haven't been up here in 4 years. DH has been bitc$ing at her, because we have been down so many times but she just says it is our fault for moving away. That kind of ticks me off, because we never would have accomplished what we have had we stayed in Florida, the pay rate up here is so much better, I mean I doubled my salary. We have a beautiful house on 3/4 acres, etc, which we never could have afforded down there. She says that's not true, but I get tired of arguing about it.

Drug her Seriously .. my nephew comes and stays with us and he is allergic to cats. SO he just buys some over the counter allergy medication and stays drugged up when he is with us .. works for him.

How about Stone Mountain!!! I HIGHLY recommend the laser show .. neat show and only $6 per car load. You can spend a ton of money at SM .. but if you pack a picnic and go to the lawn about 1 hour before the laser show, you get in the gate for like $6 and you can picnic and play frisbee and then watch the show!! Great time for not a bunch of money!!

Have a good visit and I am sure you are doing all you can to get rid of the hair and anything else. I agree with Roxanna, Benadryll or something like that.

Yeah she has her drugs .... but I still feel bad.

Roxanna, I know Stone Mountain is cool but DH and I have been there SOOO many times I just dread that. I can't walk the mountain. Someone suggested Helen, have you ever been there?

Helen is nice too .. a little expensive though and they were recently hit with tornado's and received some damage .. not much I don't think though!!! So it should be ok.

I have bad allergies and what I'd do is vacume and dust and wash all the bed linens. Then close the room up from the animals. Don't vacume too close to when she comes b/c then everything is all stirred up in the air. If possible--dust and vacume then close their room's door and open the windows for awhile. And I'd think twice about the Fabreeze. That stuff KILLS me. It makes everything worse for me. I might be in the minority though. I'd also do what Roxanna said and stock up on Benedryl! I live on it if I had to visit a house with cats!
