Curveballs

Hi guys,


You know that saying, "When life throws you a curveball, grab a bat and swing it."
Well, life threw me a curveball back in January when I caught pink eye from who knows where. Little did I know, it threw another curveball and it took til now for it to smack me upside the head.  Clearly this time, I swung and I missed. 


You all may be a little confused right now.  All these baseball metaphors and what not.  And you are waiting for me to get to the point.  Which I will do now. 
What I thought was an allergic reaction to some medicine the dentist gave me for a tooth is actually chicken pox. 


Yep. That's right.  I have chicken pox.  I never got it when I was little (well, little-er)
But I got it now.  And let me tell you,  I am miserable. Very itchy and I am covered in pimples. 
I am glad I got it now, because of the risks of getting when you are older but I cannot wait until I am finished and done with this. 


This has been kind of a rant of the horribleishness of chicken pox. Has anybody else here had chicken pox. Comment if you have or haven't.

  1. Nope! Never had it and I pray I never do. I'm sorry this happened to you, though. Is there medicine that helps it go away quicker?
    I'll pray for you to feel better soon.
    God bless you!

    1. Thanks Ivie!!!! I have some medicine that I am taking and it is helping. Chicken pox lasts for about two weeks and then it goes away.

      God bless you too!

    2. At least there's medicine. Hopefully it helps it all clear up faster for you.

    3. Yeah, the medicine is working very well. My family says I look a whole lot better than I did when I first got it

  2. Aw, I'm so sorry! I've never had chicken pox, but it doesn't look or sound fun. :'(
    I hope you get better soon!

  3. Good heavens, Lia!!! I got the shot when I was little - my mom had chicken pox and she made sure that all of us were vaccinated. Can't imagine how you must be feeling right now...

    1. Yeah, we get the shot here, too. Not all vaccines are good, but the ones that are tried and true are definitely worth it.
