A Visitor On My 1st Blog Anniversary

My blog is one year old today.  It's been fun for me to have a place to write and share things about me.  Happy birthday to Kim's Amazing Race!  If you want, read my very first entry.

Two days ago was the arrival of a visitor that has been waiting to say hello again to me for about 32 years.  When I was eight years old, her name was Chickenpox.  Today she is known as Shingles.  Yes, she has been hiding out for a long time and has decided to pay me a visit.  She is an unwelcomed guest, and I'd like her to leave now.

Here she is:


She's not much to look at.  She could be a lot uglier and vicious.  But even though she isn't very big, she is still a real pain in the back... literally.  I don't like her.  She's making me very uncomfortable.

I'm taking these huge, blue pills to hopefully shorten the length of her stay.  I think it may be working.

  1. We seem to be having an outbreak of shingles in our area! Our friend got it on his head and he was in a lot of pain and it still hurts! I hope you don't have any lasting pain!
