monday the 13th

I am seriously considering going back to bed and starting over. I've had an earache for 2 days now which I think is swimmers ear from my lap swimming last weekend. I got some medication yesterday, and it's starting to feel a bit better. I pad into the kitchen barefoot this morning to make my tea with 2 teabags to make it nice and strong. I get just the right amount of 1/2 and 1/2 in there to make it yummy. I take a step over to the sink to remove the teabags and ouch! It feels like I stepped on broken glass or a sharp pin. My toe is killing me and something sharp is in there. I look down as I'm hopping around and there is the nasty culprit. A yellow jacket is hiding under the toe kick of the bottom cupboards laughing at me. I'm telling you my toe swelled up to twice the normal size, pain all up my foot, pure agony. There just are not enough curse words for that kind of pain. I've still got it on ice 4 hours later. It's ok if you want to laugh, I won't hear you. I'm going back to bed.

Tami, that sounds sooo painful. Hope it's a little better by now. Glad you had the good sense to go back to bed; that's what I would've done!

I would not laugh at that! OMG! A bee sting in the foot. That is horrible Tami. You deserve much chocolate, a backrub, more tea with extra cream and a long nap. Hope the discomfort eases soon and your ear clears up quickly. {{{hugs}}}

I must say I did kind of giggle a little, only because I've had days like that. Your poor toe! I hope you feel better soon.
