I'm searching for someone who can shed some light on my poison ivy issue. I have recurring poison ivy. This time it has reoccurred on my wrist (underneath my watch) and 3 dots on my eyelid. I know for a fact my eyelid and my watch have not been re-exposed. lol. Those 3 dots on my eye are in the same exact spot as 3 weeks ago. I threw my old watch away and didn't wear my new one until I was sure the poison ivy had been gone for almost a week. Both spots are on the same side of my body so I didn't transfer it by touching it.
My husband has his own tree removal business. I'm not sure about other times I've had it, but when I got it this time it was because the poison ivy vine around the tree was about 2" in diameter. He does his own laundry, but all he has to do is look at me and I get it. :).
I know this may come across as being harsh, but if you're going to comment and tell me I must have come in contact with it again, please save yourself the time. I have searched the internet and there are hundreds of sites with the same advice. (please don't take that personal). Out of all the searching I've done I only found one site, with a discussion board, of people just like me. They know for a fact they have not come in contact with it again (its been weeks, months, etc) but yet it has come back in the same exact spot.
This is a picture of my wrist. I only took it to show that my new watch is much bigger and the spot of poison ivy is the same size as my previous watch. If it was caused by this watch the diameter would be much wider.
I live 1/2 hour from the closest craft store, grocery store, warehouse club, etc. Because of the price of gas, I've been trying to consolidate trips into town. Hubby only gets paid every other week, so yesterday and today were shopping days for me (with all 5 girls in the car, I can't do it all in one trip). Yesterday we went to Target and A.C.Moore. Today we were venturing out to finish our shopping for the next two weeks. This is the conversation I had with my girls on the way to the store this morning.
Princess Giggles (5): "Where are we going?" (she already knew, she just likes to ask questions)
Me: "BJ's and Joann's."
Princess Cuddlebug (7): "We just went to A.C.Moore yesterday. What are you getting at Joann's?"
Princess Joy (2): "YARN!"
Needless to say, the entire car busted out laughing. It's pretty sad when my 2 year old knows what we're getting at the craft store.
