I'm someone who enjoys peaceful spots to walk, read, & take photos. I enjoy #bloomscrolling to see the beauty in your part of our world. I've learned a lot here, especially, #kindness.

From my world, my little dog, forest trails, my nightly movies, snacks, & random silliness or somberness.

@Arapalla Ahh, I see. That wicked tail!

@Arapalla A year is good. Forgive my ignorance, but did it stupidly run into you (like our whitetail deer here that bolt in panic & just hit everythingin their way), or did it deliberately take a swipe at your car?

@Arapalla Well now that's beyond irritating!

@Moss Very true. I spent a half hour trying to see the awkward spot with a magnifying glass. The center of the slightly puffy blemish looks so tiny i'm thinking it was a spider.

Same day, my left hand was swarmed by little grass/cement ants while planting a tree. They left my wrist in pain until I thoroughly washed the area and then all the wrist redness dissipated.

I should have stayed inside Tuesday. Haha.

I must have been bitten by something on the neck two days ago. Near my jugular. Mwahh-hah-hah!

I developed a red blotch that I first noticed the following morning (yesterday). Now the blotch is more vivid tonight & there's mild swelling. Ugh. Even my collarbone feels "funny."

Am I going through what Peter Parker went through? Or should I panic about it being something more nefarious than a spider: tick?

Write a note to yourself about something good you've done recently.

@AncTreat5358 That's a great way to look at it. I'm glad you mentioned it. It gives me more to think about tomorrow.

@AncTreat5358 Thank you. I'm actually glad this is an informal job exploration (?).
