My Lip
Anybody who is on twitter knows that I have been complaining about my lip. Here’s what it looked like last night. I debated on whether or not to post it, but it is kind of gross, so if you really want to see it, click away. Pretty much, I had a little cold sore on Sunday. I started using Abreva right away. However, by last night, half of my lip was swollen and my jaw was swollen on that side too. I had several people telling me I really needed to go to the doctor. Well, today was not a good for that. The waterproofing guys were here, so leaving was not really an option. However, when I woke up this morning, my whole lip was swollen. My jaw was still swollen. However, the part that scared me was that half of my face was numb. You know when you go to the dentist and they numb you? Well, that’s what half of my face feels like. I ended up having my mother in law come over and watch the kids, and I ran to urgent care. The prognosis? I have a massive face infection.
Tonight, my face is killing me, so it will definitely be an early night.

Father’s Day
I know, I know — Mother’s Day is just around the corner. However, I like to think ahead and figure out what I am to do for Bill for Father’s Day. Since we are remodeling the basement, I would love to get something for him for down there. We are adding a bathroom, a living room area, and a toy room. My upstairs is only 980 sq feet, so we definitely can use the extra space. Right now, I am waiting for the waterproofing people to get here. They are the first part of the transition. They will be here today and tomorrow, and then the contractor who is adding everything else starts. All this construction will last about a month. Fun times, I know.
That being said, Bill’s brother started pulling the wire this weekend for things like the satellite, phone, etc. I am wondering if I should have him pull some wire for a Home Theater System. I think he (Bill) would be completely floored if I made something like that his Father’s Day gift. We currently have a system in our upstairs. However, the DVD player no longer plays half of the DVDs we put into it (including brand new ones!), so we are in definitely need of something like this. I think he would definitely be surprised and truly enjoy a gift like that. What you are getting the “father” in your life for Father’s Day?
