Hey Friends,
So in addition to last week being a crazy week of tech, some unforeseen circumstances kept me from finishing Knitting & Crochet Blog Week.
I had that crazy morning of running downtown to get an Illinois driver's license so I can get a firearms card (needed for work).
And then Friday night I made my first trip to the ER...and Friday was first preview too, so that was fun.
And lastly, today was spent calling EVERY FAMILY PRACTICE IN THE CHICAGO-LAND AREA trying to find someone to take my insurance and see me for a follow up. And then getting a new prescription filled. And now I have to go to the laundromat to wash EVERYTHING I OWN (for reals) before my new mattress comes on Thursday morning.
Good news is I'm ok. Majorly uncomfortable, but ok. I either had a small scratch on my forearm that got bacteria in it, or some sort of bug bite that caused an infection under my skin--cellulitis--and then it started snaking up my arm--lymphangitis. The ER gave me a round of IV antibiotics and then sent me home with the rest in pill form. And the doctor today said it looked to be getting better, and he gave me a prescription for the itchy-burny-ness of it. So that's all good. And I'm going back on Friday to have blood drawn to do a comparison from the blood the ER drew to confirm that I'm healing.
So, as I said. Dramatic Week.
Hopefully when things settle, I can catch up on those blog posts, because I love the prompts I missed!
