The Quick Burn!
I’m writing this blog right now with the idea in my head that I don’t have much to say, but then again… I always have something to say.
As I posted in my last blog my Uncle Dick had passed away. He died a week before he was to enter the Old Town Tustin Chili Cook off that he entered almost every year. In his place my cousin Billy took over with some help from Dick’s family, the Duffs. It was so awesome to see people there in memory of Dick & in support of my cousin, not only him but all my cousins from that little family are so loved by so many of us, we had to do it for them & their dad. All in all they ended up coming in 2nd place for the People’s Choice Award & came in 1st for the overall Chili! My Uncle Dick would have been so proud & he was definitely there smiling down upon everyone.
Needless to say, I was there almost all day & of course it was warm & sunny with a really nice breeze… but we all know that I am one butt white Irish girl & needless to say I got burnt up from the sun! I had on a tank top so just the top of my boobs & shoulders got blistered… and I thought I was doing well in the shade but it just goes to show you it doesn’t take much for me. The ironic part of it was I was telling my Cousin Billy’s friend Carl that day how Billy would get blistered when he was younger & how he would get me & my other cousin Joey to sit on his back & peel the skin off. We would have contests of who got the biggest piece & they would mount up in a little pile by Billy. We were laughing about that & here I ended up getting blistered myself… I guess maybe I should invite one of Billy’s kids over to peel me huh?... LOL… just joking!
So I am a mess right now… I am not only PMSing but I have a huge bruise on my boob (don’t know how I got it), my boobs & shoulders are now blistered & I am in pain & to top it off I had a major melt down yesterday… I had a major anxiety attack, probably the biggest one I have had in a long time. So I was a big mess yesterday. But I am OK right now, the anxiety is still there but talking it out with Gordon yesterday really seemed to help me a lot. I found out that some feelings I had he has sometimes also, so it didn’t make me feel so alone & so completely different than anyone else. I was seriously feeling like one awful person yesterday inside & out.
So here is a pic of my beautiful sunburn, I wanted people to see a little glimpse into the pain I am in right now… it hurts just looking at it!
