I think something bit me last night. A shooting, burning pain in my upper arm woke me around 3 am. I sat straight up, tossed the covers off and whimpered. Loudly. For long moments.
I had no idea what had happened until I managed to get the light on. Two small red lines were all I could see on the inside of my arm, just a few inches north of my elbow. I watched a bruise spread into a circle, but there were no bite marks. No swelling. No sign that some nasty critter had stabbed me.
I shook the sheets, put some Benadryl cream on the growing bruise and went back to sleep.
With one eye open.
Today it hurts like hell, but there are no bumps or nasty bite marks. It actually looks like a hicky, if anyone out there remembers those.
I’m only sharing this in hopes that you can explain it to me. Have you ever had a weird bug bite? Has a spider tried to murder you in the middle of the night? Could it have been a wasp or a hornet or a bee?
Inquiring minds want to know.
Thank you.
is there any more pie? 
Ick. Something woke me in the middle of the night–last night–I think it was a spider crawling around under my back. I grabbed it and threw it, it never bit me but I was awake the rest of the night. There have been times I’ve found stink bug legs in the bed, one can only imagine what happened during the night.
It could have been a wasp that stung you…..Bob and I have noticed that they are very active already this year. It is because our winter was very mild, so watch out!!
