The tale of the bug bite.

While at Ryan's earlier, I got bit by something and figured it was just a mosquito. It was already way past dark and I couldn't see what bit me. Buuuuut it has now swelled up about four times its normal size which generally means I have been bitten by a yellow fly. As soon as it started swelling I sprayed it with Benadryl because it was swelling and starting to hurt all the way around and into the wrist. I also took a benadryl when I got home, and I am going to keep an eye on it. If it gets any worse before morning or is worse in the morning, we will be going to the ER. I am severely allergic to wasps and certain kinds of bees- so I freak out anytime I have a reaction more than just a little bite. Anyway, that's the big excitement of today.

I hope you'll be okay. Being allergic like you are could be really dangerous.
