And It Happened...

My stomach, arms, neck and face are covered in Poison Ivy! Monday night I noticed a couple of spots on my arms and they were itching like crazy. I did everything in my will power not to scratch them. Tuesday morning I lathered on the steroid cream and went to work. As the day went on, it spread to my face. I mean right by my nose and in the corner of my eye. I have a few bumps on my forehead and down my neck too. By the end of the night, my stomach was covered and itching like crazy too. So. I decided to take off today and get a steroid shot. I am hoping that it will act quickly and clear this shit up! As of right now, I am NOT looking forward to running 13.1 miles Sunday morning with Poison Ivy. In case you don't know or have never experienced it, Poison Ivy and sweat do not go together!




It got on my gloves and arms from picking up logs and brush. The other places are where I touched a lot. My stomach, pulling up my pants. My nose, wiping snot.

Ballyseede Castle

   Tralle was a good stopping point from Dingle to Doolin. When looking for places to stay I came across the Ballyseede Castle Hotel. It was a little pricey, but since we had such great deals on all of the other B&Bs, I splurged. It's one of the best known Castle Hotels in Ireland, has a history dating back to the 1590’s and sits on 30 acres of native woodlands. The castle has 23 en-suite bedrooms and 3 beautiful private rooms complimented by enchanting formal gardens. To read about the history of the castle click here. We stayed in the Coghill room.   We had a nice view of the gardens. Here are other pictures from inside the castle. We had to have our picture made with the knights.   We Googled and found a restaurant in town that was supposed to be delicious. It was nestled on the shore overlooking the bay. We arrived about 5:30 and watched the sunset. The food was fabulous, however the service was not. ...

Can't Wait to Finally Have a Garage!

This morning it was 28 degrees outside! I warmed my car up for 20 minutes and all the frost still wasn't off the windows. I can't wait til next winter when I will have a garage to park in. Not only for winter months but all months truly. In the fall I always get acorns and leaves stuck in my window. In the summer my car is always covered in bird poop and hot and in spring it's covered in pollen. Just one of the reasons I'm so excited about building a house. Having garage to park in!

A Sunday Swim

Sunday afternoon we decided to take a drive. When it was time for the dogs to get in their pen, Hatfield refused. He just stood at the car door. He wanted to go to. So we loaded them up and headed out. Our drive took us to a small lake about 20 minutes always. I didn't even know it existed. Anyways, we let the dogs swim. They loved it! Watch Lilly leap like a dolphin. Hilarious! Or at least it is to us.
