23: It's Not All Rainbows and Unicorns

Published: May 16, 2016, 7 a.m.

Last week was my Infirmary Tour.\xa0With my mom in town for a week, we visited sick & recovering friends/relatives and sat at my sister\u2019s bedside as she successfully endured thyroid surgery.\xa0\n\xa0\nThen Vinnie got a staph infection.\n\xa0\nThen I got my period early.\xa0\n\xa0\nThen I realized I had no tampons.\xa0\n\xa0\nIt was a week of not getting done any of the things I NEEDED to get done and not sitting in my own space to do the things I normally do.\xa0\n\xa0\nThis is me NOT at my finest.\xa0Not at my most positive. But still trying to be a damn Pollyanna.\xa0\n\xa0\nIt\u2019s not all rainbows & unicorns, friends.\xa0\n\xa0\nOh, and apparently Vinnie likes my belly button.\n\xa0\nLearn more about your ad choices.
