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.

Pool Time!

We spent the weekend at our friends' pool. We took the dogs with us Sunday so they could have a play date. M and B have to pit bulls that are so sweet. Nahla, the youngest one, loves to play! They were also puppy sitting the cutest beagle ever!  They absolutely love going places! They were waiting in the car while I was loading our things.  I've never been able to get Hatfield in the pool, but Lilly loves it. She started off just sitting on the steps and one day she just jumped in. So, now she jumps in every now and then to cool off. Kev mixed up refreshing peach mojitos (I guess I've had major peach craving lately) this weekend. I'd share the recipe but that's his job. I never really know what all goes into what I'm drinking. I just know it's delicious! 

And a Roof

They finished the roof up today! Back of the house. Front of the house. They use these to hold the plywood together.

The Crud

I feel like crud! I've blown my nose so much this weekend that my face is raw and red. I can't imagine how I have this much snot in me. Anyways. I didn't get my Thursday 3 miler in or my 9 mile long run this weekend. How can I run when I can't freaking breathe?!? I've been taking medicine and using my Nettie Pot, so here's hoping I feel like running towards the end of this week. So glad this is a short work week and a field trip on Wednesday. I NEED a break!!
