A bunch of red ants bit my ankle yesterday and I've never experienced such intense itchiness in my life. And it burns very painfully, especially if I scratch. Kept me up last night. Aloe with lidocaine helps a bit, but still quite uncomfortable.

My dad once got bitten pretty badly by mosquitoes and ice helped a lot of that, might be worth a try if you have access to it.

Fire ants? Benadryl might help. I had a run in with some fire ants once and it was quite unpleasant, but it was okay after about a day if I recall.

My mother has a new cat, a stray she sometimes fed. One day she left her back door propped open since she was gardening. He went inside and found himself a comfy spot on a bed in the sunlight. He’s since refused to leave, doesn’t even want to go outside.
He’s a big (not fat, big like a Maine coon) and handsome red tabby. She calls him “Mooch.” |

I’m really looking forward to teaching it in the spring in the Great Plagues course because some of it is so on the mark for today and because it’s so obvious now with covid that some of his examples, like not burying the dead quickly or not having the usual funerals, have nothing to do with human nature and everything to do with typical procedures being overwhelmed. I will be over here in the corner geeking out. Carry on. |

I don't have any ice, unfortunately. Maybe I'll go get a bag. Just takes up so much space in my freezer.

Lol I do have popsicles, of course. I guess I could also freeze some water in my popsicle molds.

I'm stopping here and seeing my cousin for a few days and flying back home. I feel like I'm trying to get away from my situation with H temporarily and take precautions the same way I do at home going to the stores and seeing my family there. Wear a mask at the gas station, wash my hands, etc. Last edited by SheHulk07; Jul 18, 2020 at 11:47 PM.. |

Hey couchies. I slept until 10:30. I'm never this indulgent, it feels weird.
I hope everyone is well and take care of yourselves. |

Indulgence is good for you every so often.

Sorry for the slow reply -

Regarding your T's email - I'm hard press to respond to it because I've often thought your T's communication and therapy style would not work for me. He comes across to me as too demanding or authoritarian or something that is a reenactment of my childhood. I'd freeze in response to some of what he's said being afraid I'd be hit if I moved or responded. Of course this has a lot more to do with me than him, I do think there's some part of something there with him; especially if he couldn't adjust to my needs. Basically he would not be flexible enough to work with me. It seems like most the time he works for you, at times he seems to be too rigid for your needs. So, maybe he really isn't a very flexible T . |
