Update…
The downside to being a diva? DRAMA…
I took a day off from work yesterday and went to the doctor. I have tendonitis in my foot…received a script for Naproxen. I didn’t mention it here, but a bug decided to take a bite out of Courtney on Monday evening. The bite initially swelled to the size of a mosquito bite. However, Tuesday morning the swollen area was larger and red. Dr. P advised that the area is infected and gave me several tubes of Cutivate cream, a topical steriod. Doc says he avoided prescribing an oral steroid because they are known to increase appetite. LOL Good looking out, Dr. P.
On the way home from the doctor, my truck starts acting funny and the check engine light comes on. I spent 3 hours of my afternoon at the mechanics. The damage: $200 for a tune-up, wire repairs, replacement spark plugs and an oil change.
I missed my meeting/weigh-in yesterday, however the doctor’s scale and home scale showed me at 238…a pound down from last week. I may go to the Saturday meeting for an official reading. If not, please tune in next Wednesday for the usual weigh day report. 🙂
My foot is still a bit tender, but I will be participating in the Run for the Rose on Sunday. If the pain gets bad, I’ll just take my Naproxen with a bit of tequila. LOL
Chesty’s friend has had our computer for a week repairing a few things, taking off that blasted Windows XP, and adding more memory. I promise to get caught up with email/diary favorites this weekend.
Until next time…

Well, as you know, you can’t rightly be a diva without a little drama here and there. Hope you get healed up!

Don’t let it grind you down, Diva! I’m rooting for you to succeed in the triatholon…..rest your foot for a few days and you’ll find it makes a difference.

You call that drama, girl? Well, okay, it does sound like you had a painful day off, pain on the foot and wallet. The bug bite reminds me of when I was camping alone on an island and a bug (or something) bit my finger while I was in my CAR! Not tent, but CAR!
