A moment of realization...

After weeks of experiencing more bites, even worse than ever and now seeing the nasty critters in places such as my kitchen...I knew something more had to be done. I needed to plan my escape. I called the state health dept. and the local police dept, both of which advised that I abandon everything and get out of there. Apparently my apt building had been put on alert a year ago by the state health dept for having an infestation of bedbugs. This meant the local police and fire dept were instructed not to enter the premises unless it were a life or death emergency. Nice. No one told me and I'm living here!!! Apparently, the fire house had become infested and the only way they were able to eradicate the bugs were to strip the building and do a major renovation. They succeeded. I of course don't have that recourse as an option.
So I began the long painstaking process of systematically ridding my apartment of all my possessions.
