CRAP

Those of you who know me well or who have gotten to know me lately know that I seriously have the worst luck with health related issues. This past month I have had half of my face go numb (no I didn't go to the doc I figured it was nerve related cause my arms do it too), vertigo for TWO weeks which is a virus that makes you dizzy and I MEAN dizzy (if I moved my head or eyes the whole room spun), and last week I enjoyed an allergic reaction to I don't know what and my ENTIRE body broke out in an itchy, blotchy rash (picture a bazillion mosquito bites). So now what? Last night riding around my bike around the lake a HORNET flew into my helmet and stung my scalp. I quickly jumped off, ripped off the helmet, and tried to pull the stinger our of my scalp but it was a bit difficult with my hair in the way. It hurt like HELL (still hurts a little even now). I seriously wanted to cry but couldn't look like a wimp so I slowly pedaled home feeling way sorry for myself. The only thing I can be grateful for is that even though each week I am blessed with a bizarre illness or pain, they are never serious just frustrating.

So sorry, Val. You make me laugh though. I got stung by a bee inside my mouth in high school once, my lip swelled up so badly I refused to go to school the next day. Grey looks so cute walking now & yeah for Lucy with no training wheels.
