So Memorial Day was a big day... Did it turn out so well... For me it really didn't. I had my ten year class reunion. It is so hard to believe that it has been ten years. The morning started off late, but I suppose it was really my fault for that. Because I was off to a late start I was barely able to make it to the reunion. To make matters worse I started for unwell and was barely able to make it home.
I felt more fatigue than normal as I was on my way out to Peabody. I had already made one stop in Park City and was forced to make another stop in Newton. Other than the fatigue, that day, I felt fine.
I finally made it to the reunion and was able to see a handful of my classmates. We exchanged hellos, but that was really about it. I know I have changed and I am not that same girl that was in High School, but for some reason I instantly reverted back to her. I felt awkward and to be honest invisible. It is a feeling that I know many people feel during High School... I hated it because I am not invisible! I am not shy (for the most part)! I am not quiet! I am LOUD and PROUD, but what I want to know is what happened to me that day. I suppose it is because these are some of the few people I grew up with and I am worried about what the think of me. I know I shouldn't and on any given day I wouldn't care... It could have been because I was under the weather and honestly had been for about a week, with frequent migraines. I am proud to say that I at least dressed to impress. As for revealing who I truly am I will get another chance on the Fourth of July. I will even have a larger audience, hehe.
I also had the opportunity that day after the reunion to visit with family... It is always good to see my St. Francis. Once I was finished visiting I headed home. The fatigue began to become worse... I again had to stop in Newton... I felt light headed and my migraine had returned. I again stopped in Park City to stretch my legs and wake myself up. I was thankful to arrive home and crashed. I was under the weather for the following week. The headache turned to a pounding in my left ear and blurred my vision in my left ear. That week I ended up missing several days of work. What concerned me more than anything was the strange lump that was behind my ear. I later learned that one of my lymph nodes was swollen (and still is). I finally broke down and went to the doctor this last Monday and was diagnosed with an ear infection.
Since I have been on antibiotics I can tell a huge difference... Yes, my lymph node is still a little swollen and if it is still there after I have finished my antibiotics than I will return to the doctor for further examination (I am not looking forward to the bill... Unfortunately my Insurance will not kick in till early next month).
