Argh.

Last weekend, I developed a cold sore.  Now when it comes to cold sores, I don't get them like a typical person. Mine explode into a huge nasty sore within a day.  Normally, I can sense them coming and ward them off with L-Lysine supplements and Abreva before they manifest, but every once in a while I get one that is resistant to my cold sore fighting efforts.  When this happens, I have to go to the doctor and get a prescription for an oral anti-viral medicine... Valtrax.  Yup, the same thing you'd take for the OTHER kind of Herpes.  Lucky me, right?!  So, I have a lovely cold sore healing on my face.  On Monday, I slipped in the snow at Cooper's preschool and ended up with a nice stiff neck and sore upper back muscles.  Thankfully I have a husband that is willing to rub my back and help me take it easy (as easy as a stay at home parent of three can take it without interrupting life).  Today, Wednesday, I broke a tooth.  I have major anxiety about going to the dentist and now I can't put it off. While the tooth break is a whole corner of one molar, the upside is that it doesn't hurt, but the downside is that the break looks severe enough that I'll probably need a root canal on the tooth plus a crown and not just a crown alone.  

It just isn't my week.  It can only get better from here, right?!
