Hives

So I broke out in hives on Sunday afternoon, for no apparent reason. It was the last day of a too much fun weekend out of town with my hubbie and I was changing into my bathing suit so that I could spend my last 1 1/2 hours before check out poolside. There they were. Not itching yet but welts, splotches, red bumps--no mistaking hives. I hadn't used new products on myself, I wasn't having a bout of hay fever, I don't know what caused them. Here it is Tuesday afternoon and I still have them on both arms, on my left leg, and of all the worse places: my forehead. After telling different people about my strange break out they replied with "are you stressed" and I replied "no, I was having a good time. I don't know what brought them on". After further analysis I am starting to think they are stress related. The end of the school year is in a couple of weeks, I have to finish and submit 2 different portfolios in the next week, I have to go out of town again for another conference and my sub (whom I asked months ago) bailed on me last minute and I was having a hard time finding someone else (god bless you Forrest, I don't know what I would do if you didn't volunteer), my oldest son has half a dozen god forsaken things happening at and after school to celebrate the end of another school year, my in laws (uncles and grandmother, not parents) are making our sell and move damn near impossible because they want to ensure their kids can build when ready which is ridiculous why should we make it easy for them when it is so freakin hard for us, I "heard" there is a gentleman looking for a house in my little town and is willing to pay what I want to ask for but I don't dare put my house up for sell until I'm guaranteed a building lot THIS F-ING YEAR, my husband has now decided that he wants to use a realtor but is thinking about adding a basement to our new house so "Darcie I know you have found your perfect floor plan but now you need to find another with a basement even though you have never wanted a basement", I need to prep my house for possible buyers but don't know what to do because I don't want to put in more time/money/work than the bare minimum because I am ready to be done with it, my lawn looks so shitty this year and I don't know why or what to do I have always been blessed with green thumb when it comes to the out of doors but this year I am gardening challenged----OH GOD I'M ITCHING MORE JUST VENTING ABOUT THE SHIT!
To end on a positive note: I had a blast this weekend. I indulged in EVERYTHING too much but enjoyed every minute of it. Caught up with old friends, met new ones, danced with fun girlfriends and not so fun slutty friends, ran into high school friends and reminisced, requested great songs from my life to an awesome band, danced and sang at the top of my lungs to the songs (along with all the other bagillion people in the place). It was the best annual golf tournament I have gone to--thank you Jesse and let's do it again next year!

Sounds like your weekend was WAY funner than mine. I can't even remember what I did--but not in a good way.
