a little bit
Want Avon…..contact me! 🙂
Today we had a bit of drama. J has been taking Vicoden since Friday and has been itching more and more, as well as a few other incidents involving dizziness and passing out (after not taking them throughout the night. We have since been setting alarms and getting up at any hour of the night to make sure he is constantly medicated). So I told him to call, and of course the pharmacy at which I initially picked them up was closed and he could not contact the surgeon. He called the other pharmacy at the hospital and they advised him not to take anymore, and that it was an allergic reaction and could possibly worsen. So here it is time for more pain meds and he has none. He ended up getting a hold of an on call doc and then had the whole prescription sent to a pharmacy around the corner from the house. I went to get them, and there was an issue of the wrong medical number being on the prescription card that worker’s comp sent him. It is fixed now, he is on file there under that coverage, and he is medicated. Seems to be working with no side effects thus far. I do plan on staying home a couple of days to get him fed and keep him down. Seems to me that he is up and around a little too much and needs some rest. Today I was constantly hushing Kooky and we ended up taking 2 walks and I also took her to Costco for a quickie trip, knowing his parents were heading over shortly. We had dinner there with my sis, and Kooky seemed sad somehow. I think she misses Daddy going with us. ‘Owies’ have never kept anyone home before this. My sis came over and distracted her and that worked out well. Kooky still misses Daddy coming to say good night to her. I miss him as well, and slept on the couch near to him last night until the first alarm went off. I knew that Kooky would be looking for me in my room, and she was in there just before the second alarm and slept until 8:00 with me.
My in laws have been over every day, and bought us a small coffee pot and a toaster oven. The coffee pot is for when they and others that drink coffee visit, as J and I don’t drink coffee. The toaster oven because J’s mom bought one on sale and we remarked about how good it sounded. They brought dinner last night that J chose not to eat and his bro and girl friend came over too. J has ice cream in the fridge and popsicles thanks to them, and I got brownies. This after going to a graduation/birthday party of a gorgeous and thin 21 year old!
That was OK. I did not know a lot of people other than a couple of co workers and the family of birthday girl. Kooky and I sat at a table and played with balloons and laughed. She tried to eat every m&m in the room and had some fruit and chinese noodles and rice. She was very cute and had fun as always. She got tired close to 9 and was headed for the door the moment she told me. I was a bit bummed as dancing had just started for the night, and I had hope to dance with her. There had been performances by friends of the party girl up until then. By skinny young things that made my fat jiggle THINKING about their dances! 35 is so very very old when around a whole roomful of them.I know I don’t look it, but I certainly feel it. I was digging the 80’s freestyle/dance songs playing over the speakers.
Kooky is off to school tomorrow morning, and I shall tend to J and clean up around here a little. I bought a few types of soup tonight because he does not want anything more. I am obsessing over PJ’s for kiddo on Ebay, and I cannot believe how much people spend on used clothing. I found the cutest lot with some toy story summer PJ’s that she would have loved, and got outbid. He necks are far too tight in the shirts, but she does have a few nightgowns that still fit. I will use some of her shirts for now. I don’t have the cash to be dropping $50 right now. The checkbook is screaming. Disability pay for the summer does not thrill me, and I am cancelling the plans to take her to see ‘Go Diego Go’. Good tix are upwards of $40 each, and it seems as though she would see nothing from the cheapest seats to me. I am sad but it is the way it has to be.
Enough nonsense. Off to freecycle and read emails!
Any good avon for a soon to be 6 year old?

Spending time with your child is the best thing. All the tickets in the world cannot replace that. I’m glad that you got the medication thing worked out. Allergic reactions can make recovery much longer.
