20 KIDS!!

Tonight was our first official night of AWANA at church. I am teaching Sparks again (K-2nd grade) this year and looking forward to what this year has in store for us. We had 20 kids show up tonight. Boy it's going to be a big year. Pray that God will send me some more helpers 'cause I'm gonna need them!
Last night I went out to eat with Julie and Summer. Summer is here for the week visiting from Florida. It was quite an eventful night as my life seems to always be. :) On our way to Marketplace Grill I started not feeling well. By the time we got there I was having an allergic reaction to something so as soon as we sat down and got our drinks I took a Benadryl (6:55 p.m.) Yes, I keep Bendaryl in my purse. Someone with allergies is always prepared! Ok, so by 7:15 p.m. my ears were swollen, face was red and blotchy, both arm had welps and were really red, and I had redness on my legs too. Soooo... I took another Benadryl. We finished our meal and the itching and swelling and most of the redness was going down, BUT I didn't feel like I should drive the 30 minutes home since I was getting really sleepy (side effects of allergy medications) so Julie had to drive me home. When I got home I took a cold shower and things were better, but at 9:00 p.m. I still had redness so I took another Benadryl and went to bed. Today I feel much better. I was sleepy most of the day, but other than that I am 100% better.
