Ready or Not....... Shouldvknwnbetter- Fall

[Baymule]

Oh no! Hives! I am highly allergic to Virginia Creeper, what most folks around here call poison oak. It breaks me out in big patches, with blisters and intense itching. I have taped socks on my hands at night so I wouldn't claw the patches in my sleep. I hope what they gave you at the hospital is working. That sounds miserable.

For itchy places I use Aloe Vera gel with lidocaine, found in the sunburn section. Another good one is Arnicare, it is a pain reliever and works good on itchy spots too.

Sorry to here about your allergic reaction. I have to deal with poison ivy/oak here and deal with rash and itches most of the warm season. Basically any time I have to do yard work...

I will have to look into those 2 items-we do have an Aloe Vera gel for after sunburn but sometimes that doesn't feel good when I put it on....

DD and her brothers are very good helpers, we couldn't ask for better kids!!

So we got some more things done today-all the rabbit cages were cleaned and drum roll....our garden is almost planted!! DD and DS(13) grabbed the seeds while I was working on the rabbits and got it done!! We just need to pick up some tomato plants.

It looks like the kids knew you were needing help and jumped right in. Good for them (and you for teaching them).

Now that is a "Family Affair" that is certainly worth the while.....
