    Relief for BUG BITES???

     

      My mind works in strange ways...lol

     

       Night before last, I finished planting my flowers down by our lakeshore.  Last night I awoke to find out just how many nasty mosquito bites I had on my legs and arms. 

     

       I knew I wouldn't get to sleep unless I had some relief, and to my horror I discovered we were out of calamine lotion.

     

       Digging through the bath drawers I came upon a new tube of PREPARATION H, (not mine of course...lol...when my hemorrhoids bother me I send one to work and the other to school.)

     

       I figured...hemorrhoids itch...prepH relieves the itching and swelling...WHAT THE HELL?

     

       I gave it a try and couldn't believe it!  I had INSTANT RELIEF!!!  Not only did the itching stop and I was able to go back to sleep, but by morning there were no more bite bumps!

     

       WHO'DA THUNK IT???

     

     

    NECESSITY IS THE MOTHER OF INVENTION!!!
