Ouch!!

I am not sure what came over me this week like it wasn't busy enough already. Monday I decided to go to the base and get my free swine flu mist. Got there, no line!! Woo Hoo!! As I was sitting there I was reading the signs on the wall and it came to me that I had not had a tetanus shot in about 12 years or even longer. I decided to get that too while I was there. It's a good thing we only need them every 10 years. Today is Friday and I still have a huge painful lump in my arm. I forgot how bad these shots can hurt and linger hurting!! The guy that gave it to me did a wonderful job as far as I could tell. I never even felt the needle enter my arm. Well, about 5 seconds after that I could feel the hurting. It has been hard to sleep at night cuz I can't lay on that side very well unless I do some arm contortions so I don't press on that area. Why is it that when you have a painful area, everyone in the family is drawn to hugging that area or hitting it? Ouch!! Well, anyway it really hurts. Do I sound like I could use some sympathy?

Needless to say, with all the school activities, Christmas parties, and painful shots, I haven't sewn much but I am going to very soon!!!! I need to sew, it's my escape!! XOXO
