Poison Ivy makes you itch!

I know that goes without saying, but I have always been highly allergic to the green leafy stuff! Poison ivy, oak it doesn't matter-basically if I see it-I'm going to get it.

As a child I remember having to go to the Dr every Saturday morning for a month to get ready for summer. The dreaded poison ivy shot!
As much as I hated the needle-I hated the itcy, oozy rash that would develop if I didn't build my resistance up, (Or walking around looking like a pink spotted mess.)

Cutting down our Bradford pear trees and depositing the waste behind our neighbors house in the woods was enough to reintroduce me to my childhood nemesis. As I type, I have the pink calomine lotion spots up and down my legs.

Poison Ivy makes you itch!

Let me write that down: Reason # 6,456,324 why Heaven is going to rock........No Poison Ivy!
