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.

You can type in anything dealing with houses and get thousands and thousands of pictures to browse through. I look at EVERYTHING and pin the things I like on Pinterest. This makes it so easy to go back and review favorites. I have several boards dedicated to various rooms and the outside of the house. My focus these days is on the exterior. Hopefully in the next two weeks I will have a house pad and be ready to frame the house. I  know that I want a metal roof (not sure what color), cedar columns, stone, and cedar siding/shingles. not sure about color combination, how much siding or how much stone, and the front porch and walkway (the front yard will be pretty steep). I'm on Spring Break this week so I plan on visiting some lumber yards so I get a closer look at certain materia...
