When I laid down to rest yesterday I fell asleep for longer than I expected and at night I had a neck pain that I associate with the tick bite. This morning I was worried that the meat allergy was beginning, it’s been almost two weeks and three weeks is how long it took last time. There’s been no reaction so far today, so I’m probably just dealing with another cold. On Monday when I picked up the baby from daycare I noticed some green snot from her nose. I’ll take a cold everyday of the week over alpha gal, still it will be a couple more weeks before I can sleep comfortably. The reason I got bit in the first place was complacency, I took the dog for a walk around the property in slippers instead of my tall boots. That mistake will not happen again and I’m regularly spraying those boots with bug spray. That’s left me mostly resting these two days, we’ve been doing a lot of smaller unpacking tasks, there’s still several boxes of stuff laying around the house. The boxes don’t have things we use regularly so it’s been fine to let them sit, they still take up space and keep us from fully appreciating our house. With having guests coming in the Summer we’d like to get the house as far along as possible, plus having a clean and unpacked house feels good, we can enjoy our stuff better. We have an A frame jungle gym that I put together yesterday that was taking up a lot of space, now it’s outside. There was also a lot of rain the last couple days and I’ve been able to get some good photos of mushrooms growing.
