Finally got my COVID test results back. Not in the way I should have I'm just glad I have the results. They were negative so I can go back to as normal as life can be during this pandemic. I have a lot of underlying health issues so I figured better safe than sorry and got myself tested. I'll be keeping an eye on any symptoms though and if anything gets worse back I go for another test but that one would be at my regular health center.

I know all too well the damage a spider bite can cause. Years ago a brown recluse bit me and I suffered from it for quite some time.

Oh wow...when we lived in MO we had brown recluse spiders all over the place. One time my dad just rolled back the covers on his bed and there was one! In the second house we lived in we actually had an infestation of them and had to hire an exterminator.

Pamela | 2209 comments In 2011, we had a "blizzard" here in eastern PA on October 29th. πŸŽƒπŸŒ¨β„We got 16 inches of very heavy, wet snow. High winds, too. 🌬Trees were still full of leavesπŸπŸƒ, and very heavy due to snow, so many blew down causing much damage and extensive power outages. Roads were totally closed. There was no power for over a week. Generators, kerosene heaters, snowblowers, shovels and even candles completely sold out in less than a day! It was awful. 😳Numerous PA residents died because of the storm. Then, in 2012, Hurricane Sandy hit our region days before Halloween. Terrible damage came with that storm. That's when I decided not to celebrate Halloween and haven't ever since. Now I celebrate All Saints' Day instead (Nov. 1st). πŸ˜‡
