Rash decision

Greetings to all you facing the bumps of life

Over the weekend you may know that Wendy and I did some landscaping. I think I am paying for it now. I guess even though it was over 90 degrees; I should have worn long sleeves and long pants. My arms and legs have been infected.

It looks like I have a case of poison ivy or something. It is more in the rash stage now. I have not seen the pus filled bumps yet. I thought I was more careful, but I guess not. When we finished working we washed the clothes we were wearing in cold water and then with detergent. Wendy had read that if you took a cold shower that would help wash away the spread. I hope it helped a little.

I know that my knowledge of experience is weak, but this may be the most widespread case I have had. It seems that I have gotten poison ivy a lot recently. I do not know if I am becoming more allergic to it or just outside more. My brother is very allergic to it. I think if he gets a bad case he has to get a shot. I am going to just cream myself and put the lotion in motion. Of course, dance around like a fool when it itches.

I have it on both the inside of my wrists, splotches on my legs, and on my chest. It is almost like a vest. I am not sure if I have some on my face or if it is just sun. My nose is red like that famous reindeer or a clown. Sometimes I notice the itch more than others. Last night was one of those times.

I will try to be a good pool player and not scratch.
