A BUG IN MY EAR!

Hello Everyone!

Well, I'm going to start out this morning by telling you about my day yesterday. It started in the middle of the night when I had a bad dream and woke up with my ear hurting and feeling like I had swimmers ear or something. So I stumbled to the bathroom to see if there was anything there...obviously I can't see inside my own ear, which proves I was totally not awake at all, and headed back to bed, while my ear continues to hurt. Then I hear Annie getting sick and I'm thinking "oh great, as if I really want to get up at 3am to clean up dog puke!" So I go to stand up out of bed and I have this feeling of scratching in my ear and it hurts, and tickles, and freaks me out all at the same time! Then I start thinking..."IS THERE A BUG IN MY EAR?!?" (when moving out here we were told there are these weird looking pincher bugs that have a tendancy to crawl into your ears) So at this point freaking out, and tried laying back down. (completely forgetting about the mess Annie just made. Finally for a third time around, 6am at this point. I felt like I had to get up and try to pour water, anything in my ear to get whatever was in there OUT!! On my way to the bathroom...I found it...Annies mess, with my foot!!!! Yep, so then I'm ticked at this point. I let the dogs out, Jonathan continues to snore, take care of the mess all the while feeling this thing try to crawl out of my ear, but apparantly having issues. Then I let the dogs back in and my wonderful husband then as I am crawling back into bed FINALLY seems concerned and asks if I'm ok. I tell him whats going on and he turns over and mumbles "its ok, youll be fine, just try to sleep!" REALLY?! I'LL BE FINE! THERE IS A BUG WITH PINCHERS IN MY EAR!!!!! ugh! So I lay back down in a position for it to be able to come out, and then..the movements quit. And I am able to go back to sleep. Jonathan got up about 830 to head into work and looked in my ear and said he couldn't see anything so we were good. Then about an hour later I get up and started washing my face and brushing my teeth, only to find....the scratching start again! And I think..."ok, if I don't do anything to it, maybe it will be able to come out on his own..." THEN FINALLY, BY GODS GRACE.....THE BUG FALLS OUT OF MY EAR AND INTO THE SINK AND DOWN THE DRAIN! There really was a stinking bug in my ear!!! And so now I keep thinking of that stupid new movie that is out where the bug flies up her nose and she apparantly dies...oh lord! craziness! Just thought I'd let y'all all in on that! haha...I have tried time and time again to let y'all know that this kind of stuff really does only happen to me, and here I am again, proving that fact!

And on now, to other things...Well, Jonathan's parents are coming out in 6 days!!! And we are very excited, especially Jonathan..he hasn't seen them since we left...I have. So we are very excited about them being here, and they will be staying with us. They come in on the 15th and are with us till the 23rd. Jonathan has pretty much planned everything he can possible for them to do while they are here, so I'm sure after everythign I will be posting blogs telling you all about it, so no worries!!!


Other than that, things are going pretty good. Got some sad news yesterday that my parents had to put down our dog Lil' Bit. He was basically the epitomy of a family dog. He really was the one that didn't favor anyone too specific, except my brother Chris, since he rescued him all those years ago. But he was about 14 years old and it looks like he had a stroke. Not exactly the best thing...but I'm just glad my dad was with him and he knew someone was with him. He was probably one of the most loving dogs ever and loved to play, and so gentle, and I know without a doubt he will be missed.

Well, I have to go...my flowerbed in the front yard is in desperate need of attention, so I need to head out there and get started!

Love and Miss Everyone!
