I only use Clorox Wipes right now, ABT. There are no fumes. I've had dry eye since I was a kid, and the eye allergies are the "price of living in South Jersey," said my eye doctor. That said, I agree, when I have cleaning supplies for cleaning the house (which will be hell, yet I really want the house clean), I should put on some safety glasses. I don't use too many chemicals because we have a bird, and chemical fumes can kill birds.

pachy, I appreciate your attempt to make me feel better, but you're right, it doesn't. For one thing, I'm not really that concerned about germs so much; I just can't stand feeling "dirty," and it isn't even just dirty in the way you understand. I can feel dirty by a table that's been used by other people, even if it were possible to clean that table so that it's 100% germ, dirt and contaminate-free. I can't explain "OCD dirty," because while it includes dirty in the sense you understand, it also includes a feeling I call dirty, even though that's not really the right word. I don't have a word for the feeling, and that's about as close as I can get. I'm not afraid I'm going to get sick or die; I just can't be dirty. I don't know how to explain it.

Thank you, freewill and MountainGirl. I appreciate your support. Life can really be hell sometimes.
