Good day, y'all. Garden florals was the theme for July. I have those, but which one do I want to give up?

No, I haven't seen a doctor. If I were to start to get worse at this point, then I'd go to my doctor, but as long as I see improvements - even slight, I am not going. It looks like some of the swelling has gone down and I have no new open lesions. I had to get up in the night to take a chlorotrimton pill for the itching. I can't decide if that or benedyl is best or if either helps. Chlorotrimton seems to help. Hopefully, a trip to the chiropractor this afternoon will help with the joint pain. I wish I knew what bit me. This has been one heck of a reaction. I agree, Xylie, that it looks and sounds like a poison bush, but it was a mowed area. ?????

Jeanne, I'm so sorry that you are going through so much. When meds are off, we feel so terrible, both physicaly and mentally and are so tired. Please don't feel that you are complaining when you are letting us know what's going on your life. As we've all said before, our mental state and what is going on with us physically affects our weight, so it does belong here.

I have too many things to do today. I think I need to make a list. The housework always ends up on the bottom, which suits me fine, but leaves the house looking sad. I could call Council on Aging and get some help, but I feel I should clean the house first. Goofy, I know. It's too wet out to work in my flowers so that will save some time.

My feet are swollen. I need the shoes I had on Friday night, but I'm leary of putting them on even though I have sprayed them with insecticide.

I wish you all a clean eating day. I AM losing weight and getting healthier.
