Aliens, Ringworm and Birthdays

So I woke up last Thursday to two perfectly-formed red circles on my breast bone. Let me tell ya, that was an eye opener. I had no idea where they'd come from. The only two options I could think of were: an alien abduction or ringworm. I was hoping for alien abduction. One, I'd have all kinds of fodder for new stories and two, the babies were due in town and I wouldn't have been allowed anywhere near them with anything contagious. I immediately call the doctor and of course couldn't get in. So I took my dilemma to my boss who was a nurse in her former life. She looked at it, grinned, and said I'd had a reaction to the gel they'd put on me the day before for an ultrasound. So much for my alien abduction theory.

My baby boy is thirty-two today and has a baby boy (and girl) of his own. Happy Birthday, Sweetie.

Hi Shelley, Yes it was quite exciting for a few hours. grin.

Hi BG, Isn't that the truth about 32 being young.

CJ Kennedy said...

Glad your close encounter had a logical explanation. Or...was your boss in on the conspiracy so you can be studied further? Hmm, I've been watching too much X-Files.

I don't know...you could still write about aliens leaving those marks behind, couldn't you? Hmmm...

Guess we became mothers in the same year. My son turned 32 last month. :) Happy Anniversary to motherhood!

Allergic reaction isn't nearly as exciting as alien abduction. Oh well. At least you get to spend time with the grandbabies!!! And happy birthday to your baby!

Sandra Cox said...

Pat, LOL. When you put it that way, not a bad thing at all.

Sandra Cox said...

That's cool, Stacy. Happy anniversary to both of us:)

Sandra Cox said...
