Trees Revenge

Sunday, with my very sore leg, I had to have skirts that didn't rub on the wound, so wore this this most of the day, starting at Bunnings for a cat door (I've allowed a tenant to have a cat because I'm getting soft in my old age, and I enjoy my cat)


Before installing the cat door, I had to do a few other chores and before I know it, it was time for an early lunch. Coffee and a sandwich is enough for me today.

There was a time (decades) I donated blood to help others, now every time it's at the doctors request to find out what is wrong with me (I thought that would be a psychiatrist job). 
I was so upset at seeing the 50 minute queue (about 20 people waiting) at the Lab, that had it not been for a couple of kind gentlemen noticing me not scanning my appointment card and reminding me to scan, I might have been there a lot longer. It's gentlemen like these chaps, that really makes my day. However,  I was surprised when they also wanted a urine sample, I needed a coffee and time to plan that one


Trees Revenge

During my visit to the lab for the blood sample, I noticed the inside of my elbows are a bit red. Fast forward 2 days and both my arms are bright red, hot and blistering, along with my neck and a few patches on my face. It would appear that a bit of the tree sap may have reacted with my skin and given me a bad rash that needed $135 of medical attention for anti-biotics and anti-histamine. 

And there was the wife worrying about me being 6 meter up a tree with a chainsaw and it was an allergic reaction that got to me.

So this is my last dress up until my face returns to normal and all sores have heeled

  2. Sorry to hear that Sandra. I was expecting to wear a section of tree on my head also as I wasn't paying attention to the back cut (I was so impressed with the hinge cut, I thought nothing could go wrong).
