A Germaphobe Confession

Linda Hammell

THE GREEN GERMAPHOBE·SATURDAY, JUNE 13, 2020·

I am a GERMAPHOBE!

Yup, it is true. I use a tissue to open bathroom doors. I will never let you have a sip of my drink. I try to not let you see what I am avoiding in your house. Awful right?

I have no shame though. My DNA has bestowed me with some life-threatening issues that push me to take better care of myself or face the consequences.

I eat a whole food plant-based diet, stay away from toxic chemicals, and try not to be too preachy about giving up cigarettes.

So, in the midst of the COVID 19 Pandemic, while freaking out over germs, I stumbled upon a seriously germ-free, use no toxic chemicals, and save the planet company. Then I kit-napped a Norwex Cleaning kit, to be sure I could be safe from 99% of germs.

If only my compulsive self could stop there. OH NO, I have to make sure everyone else knows how to protect themselves from germs too! Maybe one day I will adopt more of my not so preachy non-smoker persona?

How much of a GERMAPHOBE are you?
