Well Shit....

I feel like I haven't been around in forever.... I guess it's only been a week.  It was hard to type with only one hand.  Friday I got a real cast that actually freed up my fingers and my elbow, so I'm better now...  Well, as good as you can get with no movement in your wrist on your dominant hand....

The appointment with the Ortho doctor went well and he doesn't think I'll have to have surgery because it was set so well in the ER.  I have to go in each week for the next four weeks for x-rays to make sure the bone doesn't move and then hopefully get into something not as restrictive as this stupid cast.  I figured if I had to spend the next 4 weeks looking at it, I might as well get something flashy,  so I got hot pink :)

Thank God for insurance I suppose.  At least now my deductible for the year is satisfied and I can proceed with allergy testing and all that bullshit, not having to worry about the cost.  No doubt the allergies are getting much worse and something has to be done about them.  I've had hives on my face and chest since Friday and can't seem to get them to go away.  Anyone who knows me knows that I am one vain bitch, so the minute I saw it creeping up onto my face I made a doctor appointment.  We'll see what happens with all that here in a couple of hours.

I'm a flipping trainwreck, I swear....

In other news, Josh and I have broken up and gotten back together probably 10 times since I've last talked about him.  We're so much alike it's ridiculous.  Actually things with me and him have been ok for about a week now.  He dutifully took me to the emergency room last Saturday night and has been nothing but a sweetheart since then.  Well, as best as he knows how to be a sweetheart..... Between Tara cutting my food and helping me dress during the day, Nicole doing my household crap, including helping with the baby all weekend, and Josh, just being around when I need someone, this whole mess has been bearable.  I still feel bad that I can't hold little E a whole lot, but I only have him two days this week, so we should be ok.  I just wish this stupid shit wouldn't have happened.  I mean, half my summer is going to be spent in this thing....  No pool, no Cedar Point, nothing fun....  The important lesson learned is no drinking and walking in heels kids!!  Yeah, I say that, but I could have done the same amount of damage totally sober.  Actually I've done more damage sober......

That's about it on this front.  If my doctor appointment doesn't take forever this afternoon, I promise to get the end of the school year party pictures up for your viewing pleasure.  The countdown is on to the birthday bash for this year.....  Only 26 days.....

**UPDATE**

So this is what the doctor said.  I got bit by something here at work on Friday.  Whatever it was I was allergic to (probably a spider) and that caused the hives all over my face & neck.  By digging at the bites, I gave myself a nasty skin infection.....  Sentence? 10 days of steroids and some cream that I was warned would melt off my skin if I used it too much.... Uhh, ok.....
