Itching is awful and I can't wait for you to get a house with SCREENS on the windows.  I trust your new home will have SCREENS!

Oh my goodness!!!!!!! Make sure you put plenty of that anti-itch stuff on or a nice soothing aloe vera lotion. Definitely make sure you have screens put on your new place to prevent this from happening again!!!! Is any one else scratching from fleas?

I actualleh do not think it is Fleas but the F was a good FIT  !!!!!!
John sprayed the bedroom well before we went to bed last night and the door was not open very wide overnight and NO bites !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Phew ! John was also bitten that same night as me !!!
 
I used a concoction of my oils... Cedar Wood and Rosemary on my arms and legs last night  and YES I WILL have screens on the next place in Waverley! 

And that is another new story!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You can get an automatic mosquito repellent that you can pug into an electric outlet, that might work in the interim.

I will wait and see if you have elaborated on the very cryptic comment!!!!!

I don't think I'd have liked the smell either but I really HATE itching so I'd probably just have suffered through the smell.

The awful humidity seems to have gone for now and we are finally in for a few days of sun before we get more rain. I am going to wash everything I can before it rains again I slept a bit better last night as it wasn't so hot.

I love my new mattress and I don't wake up with a sore back anymore either

Wonderful that your new mattress is good for your back Darien and that is what I said about our good one !! MY back has not been any bother for ages..... ! Not sleep wise anyway ! 

Today I stripped the bed and sprayed Eucalyptus spray all over everything just in case and I aired the bed :) I will sleep well tonight :0

No humidity here now either and it was cooler today but we do need some rain ! NOT a lot but I am fed up watering !!!!!

I love the new mattress and even Robert does too, even if he does say so very reluctantly, he didn't want to buy one as he knew it would be expensive!! He really doesn't like to part with money if it isn't his idea He will spend money on holidays or me, but if it comes to practical things he grumbles.

I'm glad Robert likes it too, that's great.  Larry grumbles about small amounts of money being spent foolishly but he doesn't think a thing of buying a new car, big tickets items he's fine with.  He fusses over the price of a movie ticket, and they are ridiculous, but he will buy a big item and not worry about it.
