Ugh. Why hives. Why?

Warning: Hives pic ahead.

Feeling very crummy today because I broke out in hives. No idea what the cause was, but in most cases, even doctors can't pinpoint what caused the hives breakout. Was it stress, lack of sleep, food allergy? It can't be stress because I am on summer break and doing almost absolutely nothing. MAYBE a lack of sleep, because it's getting so hot that I toss and turn all night, unable to get a wink of deep sleep. But still that's far stretch. And I know it can't be due to food because all I ate that day was my cooking...and no seafood or iffy food for that matter...just plain old chicken kimbap.

Never thought it'd happen to me. Soooo itchy!

Oh yeah, on that note, I never put up my kimbap for sale. I mean, if the kimbap WAS the cause of my hives, then I'm definitely not gonna risk getting someone else sick. Although, if were honest, I decided to just eat them all the next day since they make the best kind of leftover food. Besides, John claimed that he felt really itchy as well, but he didn't get the hives.

Yeah, I'm not too good at making money. Well, at least not when it comes to food I suppose. Hahaha.

Anyway, ugh. Feeling terrible right now. I basically soaked myself in a cold oatmeal bath twice because I read some article online saying it helps. Too bad the moment you get out you feel itchy again. Sigh.

Oh, another tangent, despite the hives, I went to see another 3 houses today, and John and I put down an offer. The agent was very disapproving of the house. To be fair, it's not the nicest, but it was the nicest in terms of budget. $250,000 list price for a 3 bed 2 bath with 2 car garage, front lawn, and yard. I wasn't too excited when I first saw it, and I think that made my agent feel uncomfortable selling me the home. I can tell she wants me to absolutely love it in case I regret (since it IS a big purchase), which usually means I have to fork up a larger mortgage because all the nicer homes that I "love" are freaking expensive! I mean, how can I possibly truly love a house no matter how pretty if the price is something I don't love? I don't think she understands that Asians are more budget focused than luxury focused.

Either way, she put in an offer for us, quite begrudgingly if I might add. Let's hope to hear some good news after the weekend. This is the 3rd house we've tried to make an offer for, so fingers crossed it works out. If it doesn't, I'm sure God has other plans for us. (But I still want this house hahaha)

It's so hard to let go and let God work sometimes. But at least I know that I have an almighty Father looking out for me no matter what comes our way. And He makes all things work together for my good. =)
