Poison Ivy!

Well I tidied up my mint patch this week and forgot there was Poison Ivy mixed in there! Low & behold my forearms have been covered in that horrible blistery itchy rash for the last 5 days ! I am not a happy camper! The pollen is very high so my allergies have started too! Actually it is a little chilly & rather windy so I'm reluctantly taking a day off from the garden. Lunch out with friends and now I'm knitting darling booties for my 8th grand baby due in August ~ oh happy days to come! The beautiful dogwood blossoms are now out but mine have no flowers I have no idea why? I planted petunias this week too. The sun is shining & my morning glory & cornflower seedlings are beginning to appear, very exciting
