A Mixed Bag

“To get through the hardest journey we need take only one step at a time, but we must keep on stepping” – Chinese Proverb

It’s April. That brings me much joy.

I woke up yesterday morning with a fat lip. Today, I woke up with the same fat lip and a slight rash around my mouth. What is causing this you might ask? Excellent question. I haven’t eaten anything different. Maybe something is biting me in my sleep. According to google it could be lupus. Pick your poison I guess. So here I sit, Benadryl cream smeared all around my mouth and carmex coating my crusty lips. That, along with the drops of sweat that have become a permanent fixture on my face and the rat’s nest that was once my hair, make me feel oh so sexy.

An old friend from college messaged me on facebook and asked what the hell I was doing in Ghana. He said, “it must be interesting.” A little bit interesting, yes. A handful of amazing. Some annoying on the side. A splash of wonderful. A few sprinkles of miserable. It’s truly a mixed bag!
