We knew about the latex issues - which is why I was being extra careful. The Allegra that I take must have helped. Latex is banned from my lab and most other labs at work, because of me. Mr. Fish isn't allergic to anything except for epoxy resin....until now. Mosquitos don't even bother him or poison ivy or anything that bothers most people. Crazy stuff!

We had our best intensions to get rid of the tree over winter, but they were just good intentions. He was using the chainsaw to cut it down to a stump. I think that had something to do with his reacting so badly. Whether it heated up the sap or just vaporized it, I don't know. He's over the jitters now and is super sleepy. Good thing the kids are taking a nap right now. I'm heading home early to help out.
