On Monday, L and I rearranged some of the stuff we’d been storing in the garage. We’re kind of making room for some of the storage option changes that I mentioned earlier…  Anyway, one of the things was to put one of the rolls of carpet that we have had since our great carpet caper (see April 2001) behind this big box of polystyrene packing and bubble wrap that we’ve saved over the last few years – since before we moved!

Long story short: I was bitten by a spider (a brown one) and got a very serious looking red patch on the inside of my elbow which was very concerning. Doctor visit ensues.
