Close call

You can see all 3 elements in this photo: the tree, the damage to the shop, & my house on the left. That tree bent steel beams there at the top of the shop where it hit. It would have smashed my mobile home like tissue paper. I'm feeling really, REALLY grateful right now.

Size perspective on that tree

There's my dad in the middle, chopping up the tree so we can get to the hole & cover it. I'm hauling logs away--or was, until the activity made the bite wound flare up & cover my arm in red wheals. Nice. Anyway, this shows you the size of the tree, house & shop. Daddy is just shy of 6 feet tall. He's out there now & nurse Hillary is all antsy thinking he might fall or chainsaw his foot or something equally awful. So I'm stalking him from the window. :)

Oh, my family

It's RAINING, and they're doing this. If it thunders the slightest bit I'm going to go out there and pull Safety Nurse Hillary until they come down. Surely Paramedic Fire Chief Uncle A would do that anyway but with my family, YOU CAN NEVER TELL.

Spider bite progress photos

For my nursely tweeps & other interested parties! This red spot was a blue background with black petechiae before the therapy began. It will be much more blue before the night is over. It turns cherry red inside the sarcophagus (I decided to name my chamber for the rejuvenation machine of the Goa'uld from Stargate). Tomorrow I'll do before & after photos!
