It has been quite a week! Tyler left last Monday to spend the week in St. Lucia for work stuff. Any week that I have to spend alone with the kiddos just seems long and very tiring. I raise my glass to anyone raising children on their own, what a hard job! Tyler came home on Friday and we were all very excited to see him!
On top of wrangling the kids on my own I developed a huge rash all over my arm and neck. After three different doctors, four visits, six prescriptions, it looks like I was bitten on my arm by sand flies and then developed an allergic reaction to the bites. The rash on my neck is a result of my body just having an immense reaction to the sand flies. Tyler said I should take a picture and post it, but I decided to spare everyone the details. Suffice it to say it is gross. Finally after being peddled various drugs all with inserts written in Spanish, I gave up on the prescriptions, went back to my Benadryl and it is finally clearing up. The worst part was the itching. I felt like a little kid trying to control myself. I kept telling myself I am an adult and I could handle it.
So I spent the last week hiding out inside, as the heat made the itching unbearable. Pretty boring week, but I am just glad the rash is clearing up! Tomorrow we are going to tour a Coast Guard Tall Ship. Pictures will follow.
