10. I did have a bad reaction, but I did NOT go into anaphylactic shock!
9. I got to read all the Agatha Christie mysteries I wanted. I just love Miss Marple. *sigh*

4. I've been reminded how many people love me and care for me - including my very sweet and thoughtful daughters.
3. GrammaJ has been genuinely comforting instead of lecturing me. (She HAS been in anaphylactic shock; more than once!)

The verification word is rekuper. Ha Ha
I hate, hate HATE anaphylactic shock. I'm allergic to a lot of things but ironically I've gone into shock from allergy shots more than from actual real world problems. Sometimes the cure is worse than the condition!
What a great list - and I'm so thankful for you that it's over!
Oooh! Mysteries, chocolate, sympathy, AND no housework for a week? Sweetie, even I would put up with the itchies for a week if I got that kind of treatment.
Ok, maybe not really, but, you know... sort of... but only for a week.
