Ahhh, Benadryl!



Apparently, Benadryl has the same effect on Hayden that it does me. We were at the park playing tennis and Hayden touched some grassy plant. It was "tall and fuzzy", I guess he couldn't resist. (his allergies have been bad lately anyway) Well, his eyes got puffy,red and very itchy, he got hives, he looked miserable and he wanted to go home. I took him home and gave him Benadryl, he was OUT within about 30 minutes.
We did get a few fun minutes of tennis in today. I discovered I don't have a backhand anymore...just two forehands. I'm not sure where it went, but...maybe with some practice it will reappear.
Scott was in Vegas for a few days this week. He is on his way home as we speak. But anyway, he got me all excited last night when he called and said he was walking by some slots and he noticed one had a balance. So, he walked over and pushed the button. Jackpot!!! Really??? I said. Yeah, but it was only the penny slot, so he won $1! Wow!!

Darn! I was hoping he won some dough. You are right, benadryl is the best.

Hope the symptoms go away. It will be important for them to know what poison ivy, poison sumac, poison oak all look like. You have wilderness real close. Hunter will need to give me a little class before we go on any hikes. Like that will happen, right?

He's angelic when he sleeps, and pretty nice when he's awake too. Tell the boy I'm sorry he's note feeling well and I miss him.

Mark's been heavy on the Benadryl this week -- so he's pretty comatose too. Love that stuff.
