Swollen Uvula

So weird, I woke up with that little thing hanging in the back of my throat totally swollen. I thought I was going to choke on it, literally. It kills. So I did what any good 33 year old would do that was raised like me and just popped some Advil. I just did a google search on swollen Uvula and it appears I did the right thing. I also need to drink a lot today as it is from dry throat or dehydration most times. Funny thing is I drank at least 5 tall waters yesterday. That is more than normal for me. Oh well. I’m not rushing to call the dr. right now since I feel better that it will go away within 24 hours. 
I am home from my trip and will post some pics soon. Florida and the family was great. It is always nice to return though. For work I just found out I will be going to Market in a couple of weeks so I suddenly have a lot on my plate.
My sweet friend Jordan and her family are coming this weekend. I’m so excited to show her the life I have here in Franklin, TN. I’m even doubly excited to see her and her family. My boys will be in heaven.

I wouldn’t even have known the name of that “little thing in the back of my throat”.
I hope it goes away…sounds weird and uncomfortable!
I didn’t know you lived in Franklin. I’ve been there, and I loved it. When I was in college a couple of friends and I drove down to visit another friend who had moved to Nashville. We were bored and young and decided we would “find Amy Grant”. We asked everyone - “do you know where Amy Grant lives?” and we ended up in Franklin but never found her. LOL I am not a stalker ….

that’s so weird the exact same thing happened to me a few weeks ago and it’s never happened before ever. i googled it too and mine went away that same day but it was really a weird feeling.
