Fears

So, my sisters has this list of blogging questions, and one of those questions is to list 3 fears you have and how they came to be.

1. Wasps. Probably my biggest fear. They are so evil and determined to kill me. I have been stung by wasps 3 times so far in my life, and have discovered that I have a bad allergy to stings. Each time I have been stung the allergic reaction has become worse. The last 2 times I was stung was on each ankle (a year apart) and eneded up with a red, painful elephant leg. I am scared that if I get stung somewhere on my upper body and don't get an epi-pen in time I will be seriously in trouble.

2. Moths, spiders, dead bugs in general. Moths, dead or alive, or super creepy to be. It doesn't matter how big or small they are, I can't stand moths. This all started when I was a kid and one summer we had a moth problem in our kitchen. Yuck. As for spiders and bug carcasses, I have always feared them. Spiders just creep me out and who really wants to touch dead bugs (besides entomologists)?

3. Okay this one is a little weird, but I think a lot of people have this fear. I am so afraid of getting pregnant and then not knowing until mid/late pregnancy, and then my baby having health problems because of it. I have pretty good health habits, but what if I am not taking my vitamins and don't get enough folic acid? Or what if my next job is something that exposes me to large amounts of chemicals and it does something to the baby? To make matters worse, most of the vital nervous system and heart development happens before many people even have a clue about being pregnant, in the first few weeks. That's so scary to me!!! I just want to be as healthy as possible so that I can have healthy babies.
