it's been quite a rough few days...here is a update...A week ago (tomorrow) I was hit with a 24 hour stomach flu bug...all I
can say is YUCK...it didn't last long but left me feeling out of it for a
few days. Saturday was Kelly's bridal shower and it was
"wonderful" !! Her matron of honor and the rest of the bridesmaids went way
beyond the average and did an awesome job!! (Kelly is my granddaughter who is getting married in June) Then Saturday evening when I
was just relaxing and watching some tv with hubby and playing on the
computer, my middle finger started itching and burning. Looked like
something had gotten into the side of my knuckle when I was working out
side..(like a little sharp thing off a plant) so I put some neosporin
and a band aid on it when I went to bed..well the next morning it was a
'little' bigger but nothing to worry about..(I thought) so later Sunday I
took the second band aid off and it was a lot larger and very dark red
and purple looking and my finger was swollen and red and very
itchy...hmmm don't think this is too good I told hubby...so Monday I got
in to see my doctor and she said she was pretty sure it was an infected
spider bite and was concerned about it going into cellulitis (which I
had last summer in my leg)..so I am on super strength antibiotics and
finally this morning the swelling and itching was much better!! It also
looks much better so I am thanking the Lord big time today!!
Okay all that was probably too much information but just wanted to fill you all in...I did have a very good report last Thursday when I went for my diabetes 3 month check up so that was encouraging...My A1C blood test is down from close to 7 to 5.8 and the doctor was very happy about that. I have lost around 52 lbs since being diagnosed last June and am working on getting some more off!! (getting a bit harder now!)
So I am going to close by sharing a couple of my spring flowers that have been blooming the last week or so..
Praying you all have a wonderful day tomorrow...be blessed!!

Gorgeous spring flowers! I just love daffodils. I'm so glad that Kelly had a great shower. Hope your finger improves soon. Hugs
