If your feeding the spiders they probably are as big as cobras, or at least scorpions.<br /><br />My guess is that you had a bit of an allergic reaction to the bites. Diphenhydramine (Dramamine) is awesome for that type of thing, and I have found to be somewhat helpful with poison ivy and mosquito bites. Topical Hydrocortisone can sometimes work as well.russell1200https://www.blogger.com/profile/16258915475311426433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3136150101440535605.post-6246823038993640122014-08-21T18:58:17.891-03:002014-08-21T18:58:17.891-03:00As much nakedness that happens down by the river, ...As much nakedness that happens down by the river, it is just lucky you got bitten on your foot instead of somewhere else!Edhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13214319366049620074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3136150101440535605.post-88557405731486489252014-08-21T09:19:52.158-03:002014-08-21T09:19:52.158-03:00Ouch!

Did you pack your ankle with ice? <br />Spider bites can be bad, we have all kinds of spiders down this way. We always spray to make sure they don't come in the house.<br /><br />Jambaloney is always finding great items people are getting rid of. Great idea for using those platforms. It will keep you off of the grass/ground............therefore, no possible spider bites while laying down capturing the sun.<br /><br />Yummy harvest from your garden, makes for great veggie meals. It's just awesome being able to eat food from your garden.....cooked or raw (right off the plant).<br />My favorite snack or meal is cabrese salad. Your salad with feta looks really good too. We've been trying to find unique salads so we don't get bored eating the same type of salad, I'll keep this one in mind. <br /><br />Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers for a speedy recovery with your foot. <br />Sending hugs and love to you both.<br />Your Friend,<br />Sandy<br />P.S. put some of your homemade salve on your foot!!!Sandy Livesayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06183449816586125720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3136150101440535605.post-6573836986963418342014-08-20T23:47:41.032-03:002014-08-20T23:47:41.032-03:00Ouch!

I am glad you have Benadryl and that you got some medical advice, because that certainly is a nasty bite, and a nasty reaction to it, as well.<br />It's unfortunate that there are so many crawlies in all the places I love so much on the planet. It always seems that the prettier the place, the more abundant the biting creepy crawlies are !<br /> Love to you and to Jam,<br /><br />JaneofVirginiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15320442534060401465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3136150101440535605.post-11000267305758425972014-08-20T16:11:31.682-03:002014-08-20T16:11:31.682-03:00I think that we all should pitch in and send Jam b...I think that we all should pitch in and send Jam bubble wrap to wrap you up in so you stay safe.

It must be an odd angle or the swelling must be really bad cause it looks more like someone is shooting a pic of a pig's back from above and cutting off the tail and head end. I am not trying to be cute or funny either it just doesn't look like a foot lol.<br /><br />Hooray for Kymber Tomatoes :)<br /><br />Things are looking good up there (except your foot) looks like we are in for a scorcher of a week this week though.<br />PioneerPreppyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09269878017447335944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3136150101440535605.post-58142482319774036932014-08-20T15:04:18.244-03:002014-08-20T15:04:18.244-03:00Ouch - that looks nasty - I'm glad you're ...Ouch - that looks nasty - I'm glad you're on the mend.
