except for the lump

just so you know. i feel much better than i did yesterday. and i thank those of you who seemed concerned. yes, it was a depressing day. and a depressing weekend. and yes, i was not exactly in the best of spirits.

but i just wanted to let you know that today i do feel better. my lovely daughter called me last night. then, it felt good to be at work this morning, where people seem to like me and appreciate me. and in the afternoon, i was able to get a few things done, that i'd been putting off. and it's always good to check things like that off a list. especially getting some flights booked. it's good to know i will be getting away. from. it. all. soon. oh, and the drugstore gave me bunches of free samples today (of shampoo, soap, and lotion, and stuff) free stuff, always good. then, i heard from another friend who I made plans with for the upcoming weekend. all good.

and so i feel better. except. for one thing i checked off my list today was getting my flu shot. and now, i have this weird lump on my arm. now this is not my first rodeo. i've had flu shots before. and i even had a reaction last year where a circle developed around the flu shot site that turned red and was warm and sore to the touch. for weeks.

but this year, in addition to that, i seem to have a lump. so just so you know- i feel pretty good and much better today. except for the lump.

and quite honestly, i'm not really even bothered all that much by that.
