A quick catch up.

I think no bedbugs. This based on finding nothing in my steam clean frenzy AND nothing in the traps that have been in place for 2 nights.

Based on reading/research, info from friends/neighbors/countrymen … my current thinking is that there is something in the woods that bit me. And then, a reaction (hives) to those bites.

There are definitely bites and also welts that do not seem to be bites.

I’m taking antihistamines late afternoon and overnight … schedule because I have only Benadryl which knocks me for a loop and the Jeep was at service so I could not get an alternative.

BUT, I have the Jeep back and and now a hopefully non-drowsy alternative.

Even so, the afternoon/night time antihistamine dose has helped. Also, I am walking in the woods in tall boots, long pants, long sleeved shirt.

Onward!

Bergamot … or as I call it, the court jester flower.

A beautiful bake and windowsill herbs.

Lovely stuff.

Happy Wednesday!!
