I knew we had Benedryl in the house but it's the nighttime one and I figured I'd get drowsy and I had things I had to do.<br />I;m glad your arm is pretty well better.

They are usually ones I picked up from a thrift store, although I make loads of them to sell to other people. Good thing not everyone shops at thrift stores;-) I too harvested quite a pile of ripe tomatoes this morning. We had been away for a few days. The tomato plants are getting rather wild.<br />Also, last Sat evening while picking beets for Sunday's market, I got stung by something, didn't see it. On my inner lower arm. Hurt like h*ll and I finally had to go in and put a baking soda paste on it. The it got a bit swollen and red. Next morning it really swollen from my elbow to my wrist, red and very hot. Finally got some Benedryl after the market was over, but it didn't do a thing, maybe it was too late at that point? When my DD say it that evening she said if it got worse to go to the doctor's (she works in a drs office) She was worried about infection. Anyway, didn't get worse and finally by Thursday it was pretty well back to normal. Next time I will take the Benedryl right away, now that I have it on hand.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08938874724231860923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7580372117701042127.post-35325160199903900862015-08-14T18:24:39.984-07:002015-08-14T18:24:39.984-07:00Hi!

I love the half ones for looks but I need the bib part on mine!!! Your garden veggies are picture perfect!
