WOW that is a lot. Maybe they caught on to the medicinal properties of their local honey and decided to charge people like crazy.
I've actually never tried it before but it seems like it would work. I know people can get some really really bad allergies to the point where you can't even function so if the local honey helps relieve that then I think it's worth it.

Check out the local mom & pop, they are probably cheaper. I think the last one I got was $8 for a medium- small bottle from the farmers market, it is so good. I got some from this old couple once after seeing their sign, they invited me into the kitchen! The closer to home the better for the allergies.
For the bitch portion, I am feeling awful, bleeding a lot today, and we're heading to family for Mothers day and birthdays. Ugh! And my allergies are raging too! I need a vacation from all of this!

I am just utterly exhausted today. I can't figure out what's wrong with me. I have been so damn tired and fatigued for the last couple weeks. I just want to sleep.

You're body is probably finally relaxing - you've been super busy with school and stuff so sleep in and enjoy!

how are you feeling today, Jenaya? Your body certainly has a lot to recover from with school and everything, but you know when it feels like just recovery and when it feels like something else is off. Hope you're doing better today.

Yeah you've been running on adrenaline for a while, chances are your body has slowed down and trying to make you relax for a bit!

Aw thanks for asking. I was starting to feel really good again when I started taking my ALA/ALC supplement. But yesterday I accidentally ate something with MSG and I seriously feel like I have been hit by a truck. I'll recover from that and hopefully get back to normal. I took the day off from studying to give my head and body a rest from the stress. I hope it helps.  |

Oh Jenaya I'm so sorry! That damn MSG is everywhere.
My bitch is that I have poison ivy in my crotch. Yes. I've had dots coming and going all over my legs for the past two weeks, and I've been taking benadryl every night which I thought was keeping it from spreading, but still not killing it. And this mornign I woke up with poison ivy all over my upper thighs and crotch. I hate being a redhead!!! I'm so allergic to poison ivy, and I knew by how it was popping up little dots all over that it was in my bloodstream. I rubbed myself on my bike seat in a longer ride and it popped up in my crotch. I thought endo sucked, but poison ivy on your vulva is even worse!!!

well...I just had a typical Kristin experience. More proof of why being a redhead (personality-wise) is a liability. I tried going to a CVS "minute clinic" to get prednisone, because this clearly isn't going away with benadryl. After waiting 1.5 hours, I finally got into see the person. She told me that she couldn't evaluate a skin condition if I had to take my clothes off in the office (I was wearing jeans, so she clearly couldn't see poison ivy on my upper thighs). I tried to reason with her--got me nowhere. So, I walked out into the CVS, took my jeans off in the vitamin aisle, and walked back into her clinic with my jeans outside on the floor and said, "ok--can you please evaluate me for poison ivy?" She looked at me in shock and told me she didn't "serve no women of ill repute". I was pretty livid by this time, so I asked her to show me that rule in her rule book. She then said she was going to call the police on me. I told her to go ahead--there is absolutely no law that says I can't walk around in my underwear if I wanted to. She called the police.
Knowing what i know of DC police, I decided to leave. I probably would have been arrested for being a hooker or something. Who knows what reaction the police would have had to a small redhead wandering around in granny panties inside a CVS in the ghetto.
It just makes me so crazy!! This place claims that they do physicals. How do they do physicals while keeping your clothes on? And how to you evaluate "skin conditions" if you cant take ANY clothes off?

HOLY sh*t ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?!?!? First off, you are freaking hilarious! Second, why couldn't she just LOOK!?!?! She didn't have to touch it!
Good grief, I am seriously losing hope in society!
So now what are you going to do?

OMG, rust- the cops probably would have thought you were on drugs (which is what you need, ironically!). Do you have a hospital with an urgent walk-in clinic? They might take you more seriously. A woman of ill repute, was this CVS also located back in time?
Ugh, this is terrible! I can't imagine poison ivy on my woo-hoo at all! I'm so sorry, girlfriend.

I'm sorry to hear that you have this poison ivy problem! You should try Walgreens Take Care Clinics - I never go to CVS, hate them. I have used the take care clinics before with great results. I hope things get better for you soon! I can't even imagine having poison ivy itch down there. You poor girl!
