Mama will be having vodkaberry tonight....
i'm thinking, make some black beans, and a mango-avocado salsa and we can have wonderful lettuce fajitas with romaine leaves. low carb, high fiber, high protein, plus lots of nutrients, and lots of delish.
Horsefly? And no, you don't need horses around for those buggers. Hope you get some relief soon

DH said horsefly as well. I felt the pain when it happened and there was some blood. Is there anything I need to be concerned about, disease wise, if you happen to know. Thank you.
I thought to myself..self..if this is what is going to happen when taking care of the babies, well the babies are going to have to suffer, cause momma doesn't like pain...however all my babies are planted and looking good. Today DH and I went out on the porch and we admired our handy work...lol..snobby I know, but it was a feeling of accomplishment.
Does anyone know of a place for kids to eat free today (w/ adult entree purchase maybe?)?
Off the top of my head - Perkins. I also found this website that has each day listed. linky [coupondivas.com]
And on the un-friending thing... DH & I had to even un-friend some family members. What do people think of when they post certain photo's or conversations?? I just don't get it.
I keep meaning to ask if it could be a spider bite, a paper wasp bite, or a bee sting? I second the benadryl option - maybe even double up if you don't have to drive anywhere. If it gets worse and changes to purply/black or you get red lines up your arm then you should go to a doc immediately.
Also, I am supposed to tell you that Mavis likes blueberry cake a lot.
Just got done reading back a few pages...I am sorry to hear about your grand-dad. My prayers will be with him and your family...hugs.

Was not a bee..as I would have had an allergic reaction and have had to be taken to the hospital.
I surmise it could be a spider bite, but, I wasn't outside that long. I was planting and a storm was coming in and I was not standing still for a spider to come a creeping.
I will keep an eye on it for red lines and purply colors. No benadryl for me. I would pass out for the rest of the day. This is not an option until tonight.
Thanks for the support my favorite peeps. I will stop worrying as much as I have been.
Dreeme....I just heard about tornadoes in MO today since your last update, let us know you are OK. (somehow I managed to forget that you moved). How was your Birthday?

Speaking of FB, you know you have been on it way too much when you come to SD and keep wanting to click the invisible "like" button for everyone's posts

i just got a call back from physical therapy. have the PCP referral but now they are saying the orthopedist's prescription has expired!! she said, go get a new prescription. he's away.
right now the earliest appointment for an evaluation (let alone therapy) is not for another 3 weeks. 3 weeks? But since I don't have a valid prescription anymore she's not sure she can even book that.
when will I get to walk without pain and hobbling again.
i want to scream.
i have shrimp in the freezer, thanks to target and maple syrup, thanks to amazon.
you can't tease me like that.
put 1lb shrimp in a bowl of cold water and let it sit for a while till it defrosts but is still chilly.
(i use peeled, deveined shrimp, just tail on. if yours is not peeled, make sure you do that, cos the fun is in eating the shrimp with the caramelized maple syrup clinging to the meat).
in another bowl mix up:
2 tablespoons maple syrup,
3 cloves crushed garlic (paste),
1/2 tablespoon spicy spanish paprika,
1/2 tablespoon sweet spanish paprika,
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
We always taste this mixture to make sure it has the right balance of sweet, spicy, tangy etc. if not, we adjust and add some more maple syrup.
Once defrosted, drain the shrimp, squeeze out any excess water, then pat dry.
In a bowl combine the shrimp with 2 tablespoons oilive oil. toss to coat well.
Then put the shrimp in maple syrup mixture, tossing to coat. marinate for 10 minutes.
heat a heavy bottomed stainless steel pan on medium heat. put in the shrimp in the pan and saute until the shrimp are opaque, and the maple syrup mixture caramalized about 6-8 minutes. transfer to bowl. scrape any mixture that is stuck to pan bottom and put in serving bowl (this stuff is uber delicious - looks blackened, but is not charred, just dark).
will take just a few minutes.
you can have it with a fresh salsa and some salad greens for a light meal.
or with seasoned grilled veggies and some brown rice.
or as the filling for fajitas or soft tacos
theoretically also in a quesadilla or burrito, but we find that shrimp are so full of delicious flavor, it's best to eat them unmasked without layers of heavy cheese etc.
I am so sorry that you are still hurting. I wish there was something I could do. I am glad to see you posting online though - it is nice to "see" you.
chicken... try this recipe [foodnetwork.com] if you feel like it. super easy to make. i made it a few weeks ago - was very, very delicious. light, crunchy, baked, with yummy lemon sauce on the side. will pair very nicely with the asparagus. i love asparagus too.
Yesterday while tending to my babies (garden) something bit me on my arm. It is swollen, it is about 2 inches round, with a little mark in the middle (where I was stung/bitten/nibbled on)...any ideas? It itches, but hurts more then it itches.

blackfly
would be my 3 guesses.
do you have a homeopathic pharmacy or natural foods store anywhere near you? if so just get some calendula tincture (it's an extract of the calendula flower) - powerful disinfectant, wound healer, antibacterial. no side effects. should get it to subside in just a couple of days.
the "hurt" part - the pain, that is - is likely just from the swelling/stiffness. if you have any unscented aloe gel at home, that will help with the itching.
infection - try not to scratch it, no matter how itchy. and certainly not with dirty hands. where you have an opening cos of the bite, you are more likely to get it infected if you scratch.

I want that recipe too!!! I would love that entire meal
sending you uber big hugs for car damage and grandmum surgery.
someday you'll laugh at this car bike story. until then, there's vodkaberry.

one has to be pretty insecure, feeling pretty empty about things, to feel the need to a) attack people on the internet and b) walk around in a bunny costume when it isn't easter or halloween. (our bunnies doesn't count, cos well, she's really a bunny. that ain't no costume.
so i too would have unfriended her ASAP - she just lost any semblance of credibility/normalcy she had. and then knowing how I react, I would likely have just laughed it off and moved along. sad, really sad. but I can totally see how it gets under your skin.
i once had so many bluefly bites on my legs (mem day weekend 2004) my legs were completely swollen, and stiff and blue and purple from thigh to ankle. hideous. but eventually it dissipated.
this is prime black fly season for northern new england. AND plus, there's a reason they call no-see-um's: they get you before you see em.
I HATE EM.

I do have aloe, bunnies swears by aloe for minor burns. When I get a burn boo-boo, I put aloe on it every few minutes and by the morning, it's gone, or at least no longer painful at all. bunnies is mentally strong and will not scratch.
