{my secret} is that I suffer from cold sores. I HATE it. They are painful, ugly and I am embarrassed by them. I was finally able to get some medicine for them (I love insurance). Unfortunately I didn't have my purse on me saturday when Mitch and I were out, so I wasn't able to catch my outbreak in time :( So now here I am feeling self concious and trying oh so very hard not to pick at it. sigh...
{golly I'm pale... I need some sun!!}** Do any of you have something your embarassed by?

holly, my husband gets really bad cold sores too, and we found something that works great on them. vodka, i know it sounds weird, but if you get a small bottle of vodka and then dip a q tip in it and rub it on the cold sore before it breaks open it will dry it out and clear it up in no time! it is one of the only things that helps my husband besides taking pills.
Hi Holly!
I just want to say that I enjoy reading your blog. You are definitely keeping it real...I too have a secret that's not so secret. I have suffered from acne for the past 11 years. Uggh, just saying it hurts. I absolutely hate it! I've tried so many different products and whatnot and it's depressing when they don't work. :( The only thing that worked was birth control...which was good for 5 years then I decided I didn't want to take anymore pills/drugs...so here I am acne and all. Someone (who I'd like to punch now) once told me that my face was so broken out you could play connect the dots on it! Haha, I know it's funny...but man it hurts at the same time. If I could change anything about myself it would be that...I'd LOVE to have clear skin!
Look on the bright side...at least your cold sores heal and go away! :)
