"Love does not expose faults; it covers them." --Joyce Meyer

Okay, so I did not have to work on Monday, right, so when I woke up I went into the bathroom and noticed that my eyes were swollen. Hmmm... I thought, I must have been tired.

So, Tuesday I woke up and knew they were swollen because I could feel it. It sucks but what do you do.

When I got in the shower Wednesday morning I noticed bumps all over my face and neck. . . I thought it was strange to have goosebumps on my face, but oh well.

Throughout the day I noticed that they had not gone away and realized I had hives. Hives? you say, Yes, I get hives about this time every year due to my severe allergies... :(  I had almost forgotten about them because it had been so long!

So, I have been dosed with Benadryl since then. I am tired, as you could imagine, and I still have the hives... grrr... I called the dr and they told me they would give me a cortisone shot, but I have to save my leave right now so I did not go in.

I really should have just done it because today they are spreading to my arms, chest, and upper thigh areas!! Ahh... the pleasures of the cedar tree...

Cedar tree, I hate you!
