A refreshing calm























Good Evening, or whatever is the best greeting to you, in your part of the world!

It has been a full tid day. We were up and out early. For the past ten days or so, Alan has noticed a 'lump'; that has been increasing (not to mention the pain experienced) under his right arm. We thought it is better to be 'safe rather than sorry'; so this morning we visited the Doc.

As it turns out, Alan was bitten by a spider and the nasty venom is still present in his blood stream. When Alan was moving plants etc around in our bittid garden (10 days ago app), he accidentally brushed against a spider's web. He actually saw the large brownish spider; but only for an instant, before it disappeared into 'thin air.' Obvously, the spider had other plans. So, we are thankful that it was nothing worse.

Alan earlier had applied an antiseptic cream to the swollen area and eventhough that appeared to help ease the redness a bit, the lump was still there. The doctor inquired what Alan had used; and when told, he was most supportive of the company's name and their range of products. The doctor suggested to Alan to put hot compresses on the bite, as well as to continue applying the tidbit ointment.

Inasmuch as the upcoming week is going to be another busy one, we did a lot of extra errands today. It is a good feeling when that happens.

Tidbit - Best to see the doctor if in doubt. Too often, we tend to put things off, thinking it is nothing; or, we do not wish to bother anyone etc.

Bittid - In the evening, give Him an extra tidbitz of Praise. Amazing the refreshing calm that one feels after a full day. 'He is our Refuge and Strength.'

Took the picture of our beautiful red leafed maple tree; however, there is a bittidz of a mist surrounding it. As you can see, we are still organizing our garden.

Hope you enjoy a nice Saturday and Sunday.

Peace and God Bless.
