Bleach
Mold is vicious! I was cleaning the bathroom shower a few weeks ago (um, without rubber gloves)… and because the bathroom has poor ventilation, there was some “gnarly” mold. I proceeded to get the sneezures… the leaky nose and the asthma-ish symptoms… I’m just now getting back to more normal. So take it from me (and let this series be a lesson to you all), DON’T touch the mold…. but KILL it!
Ps. Thanks JC for the prompting.
Sneezures. Funny word, yet so true if you get some dust kicked up while digging around for something as I sometimes do. As for mold, I thought you’re not supposed to sniff it, and/or breathe it. Listen up kids, just say no to snorting mold.
Yeah, my youngest daughter gets sneezures… they are pretty painful for her… she just goes into rapid fire sneezing and can’t stop for a minute or two. She’s allergic to lots of stuff so allergy season is heck on her.
Ah yes…mold. Cold-like symptoms for a WEEK if i’m exposed. Lovely stuff.
Stick… Yah, I’m pretty sneezy when the dust lurks about, as well. I guess I just have a sensitive system. And I would NOT suggest the snorting.
PKitty… Wow… Her heart must LOVE that! I sympathize.
Meem…. yah, I’m still a little wheezy when I do any exercise-type activity. Sigh. I lived in an excessively moldy house in Capitola… I think it mighta been that nasty toxic mold. I was wondering why there was plywood covered in wallpaper in the dining room.
She’s doing the “Dracula sneeze” (so named because sneezing into the crook of your arm sort of resembles Dracula covering himself with his cape).
Hey, howcomes we’ve never seen Randie dressed as a vampire? Or Bridgett for that matter?
Dada… I’m not sure… well, there’s always NEXT Halloween. (by the way, your Elvira toon was a bit… naughty!)
Oh god…sneezures. Next time I’m sick I have to remember that word…
We need to collect all these marvelous words in a Bridgett Lexicon…a Brigicon!
Yeah–just be really careful around mold. I’m 57 and now have asthma because of mold in the last two houses we lived in. It’s particularly bad in the Pac NWest–especially black, slimy mold! YUCK!
Joe… thanks… my little brother (who is much taller than me) used to have “sneezures” and I believe it was either he or my sister who coined the phrase first.
EofO… “Squid-icon”…?
Ruth…. Gah! You’re scaring me!
Squidicon!
Squidicon sounds like a very specialized cartoon convention! sounds like fun, bunch of squiddies hangin out, having laughs….Sounds like First Friday!
Ha! Yah… Firstest Fridays are for letting your tentacles hang out… or hang down?
We have black mold in our house, and It’s a constant battle to get rid of it.
Sneezures is a good name for them, but I call them sneeze-attacks. They start without warning, and can take up to ten or fifteen minutes to get rid of. They usually don’t go away untill
my nose is bleeding and my eyes are all watery.
I hate them.
Squid… NO! I worry for your health! This is similar to what was happening in the Capitola house I was renting… (the new owners, who bought it after we moved out, completely gutted the place, interestingly enough). I had allergies something fierce! … and nosebleeds.
