Here a Spot, There a Spot, Everywhere a Spot Spot

There are many perks to being pregnant.

My personal favorite is owning an entire wardrobe of nothing but elastic waist pants.

A close second is the "pregnant card."

There is no limit to how many times you can play the pregnant card.

Cleaning toilets...play the fumes are not good for the baby pregnant card.

Taking out the trash...play the I get nauseous from the smell pregnant card.

It's an easy card to play.  So why, oh why, did I not play the pregnant card when it came to doing yard work last weekend?  I didn't have to pull weeds.  I addition to the pregnant card I could have also played the "seasonal allergies card" or even the "you know I hate nature card."  But, for some unknown reason I opted to pull weeds.

Then a day or two later I had spots on my cheek and nose and chin.  I assumed it to be an unfortunate side effect of the mass amounts of hormones surging through me.  Then they started to itch.  Then they spread.  

They are on my arms and are popping up on my other hand and leg.

I should have played the card.
