For a future heroine perhaps, who shall someday grace a page within a novel:
1. White vinegar helps the itchies of poison ivy.
2. When the rash appears along the length of both arms, you have most likely hugged an infected person.
3. No matter how retro 60s it may be, nor how deeply set a habit, when afflicted,
wear a nightgown to bed, or better still, jammies with long sleeves and feet.
4. Remember that although the rash appears on your right hand, it is the left one that performs the scratchies and therefore responsible for the spreading.
5. Do not hug your mate unless you are currently at odds with him
🙂 my itch is gone! What a relief.
I may end up being the heroine of my own novel with this scenario…the yard is covered with the stuff! Good tips…
Add this to the list:
-Never go to the bathroom directly after gardening without washing your hands like a surgeon (ya don’t wanna know…)
