We got back from Florida on Monday and I drove myself straight to the emergency room. Yes, friends, I have sun poisoning. My feet and lower legs were so swollen I could barely walk. By the time I got to the ER my feet didn't even look like feet. They looked like large loaves of bread with toes sticking out. Huge! I was afraid that I had cellulitis, but the doctor said that he didn't think I had any infection - yet. He also said it was one of the worst cases of sun poisoning he had ever seen. He gave me pain meds and told me to take aspirin four times a day. I feel much better today. I was able to put a shoe on. It is still painful to walk, but much improved from Monday. For those of you just itching to lecture me on the value of sunblock, save it. I was wearing it. Only the bottom half of my legs got the scorching. The rest of me is a very pretty tan.
The wedding was beautiful. We had a really good time (aside from the sun poisoning) and Karen looked gorgeous. The weather was perfect. It was really hard to come back to work after being off for almost a week!
Mom and dad moved into their new house yesterday. It is so pretty. I am happy for them.
Not much else going on - Love y'all.
