Mama's Home!

Oh I had a great trip. So much fun with my best girls.

Below is the only picture that I took all weekend. This was taken from the patio of the condo. How amazing is this place?!?! It was unreal. So much fun! So great. There was ZERO reason to even leave that patio. Yes, that is a private pool...on the patio...just for us...heaven.

I had a little incident on Saturday morning. Which required a 911 call and some blood loss and some venom and sirens and lots of pain and panic. I was stung by a stingray. Not fun. Why did we leave the private pool?! Why?!

I won't bore you with the details, but it was AWFUL. And next time you go in the ocean...do the "stingray shuffle". I'd tell you how to do it, but obviously I have no idea...

Thank god my girls were there! They rallied into action, calling 911, helping to get me to safety, stopping the bleeding, helping me through the 4.5 hour poison period (painful!), keeping the wound submerged in scalding hot water (the only treatment for a stingray attack), and keeping me positive through the ordeal.

True friends, they were prepared to pee on the wound (what? we heard it worked for jellyfish attacks!) and/or suck out the venom (haven't you read "Twilight"?). Thank god 911 was there in just a few minutes...the paramedics would have had a good laugh if they walked up on us treating the wound in our own way...

The baby and I are just fine. Still swollen, bruised and a little tingly, but getting better every minute. What an experience.

Despite the attack, it was THE BEST weekend. You know you have amazing friends and you are in a fab place if you can honestly claim that you had a fabulous weekend despite a stingray attack.

Oh my girls, I love you! Can't wait for our next TBL weekend! xoxo
