Still dragging on and on

 

So went to my appt yesterday.  Talked to the doctor. He sent me for a blood test. Figured I hear from them that I’m anemic.  Didn’t…… then I realized that there office is closed at NOON on Friday’s and I went for the test at 11:33 so unless I’m in need of a blood transfusion. Knew I wasn’t quite that bad, I’m not going to hear from them.  So I went to the store and got some iron tablets.  Will probably take them this weekend and be done with them.  He’s sending me for an ultrasound which will be on Monday to see if there’s anything left.  I was just so tired on Friday.   I was just spent.   Although since taking the iron I’m feeling better. It comes and goes at times but nothing like what I felt like the last few days.  Was a bit pissed at Dennis as when I do take a day off he has a tendency to be lacks about watching Jonathan.  I’m expected to be the  one in charge of him when I’m home even if it is I’m home sick.  I was not happy with that.

TOday I finally had most of my energy back.  Still had s few moments.  The car needs an oil change, it needed some oil so I put it in the car with both kids in it.  I didn’t drive it all that long. 15 minutes no biggy when I put the oil in.   Kids were in the car as it was just a quick put it in and go.  Well the frickin thing started on fire.   Luckily I was home and the hose for the garden was right there. Still had to attach the hose to the faucet and man that seemed to take forever.   I told the kids to get out not thinking Jonathan was in his car seat and couldn’t and Andrew just panicks during crisis. He was out jumping around.  I had it hooked up and out before he was completely out of the car to see.   I’m not the panicking type. Thank God , since I’m the only one it seems that has a level head in my house.    After my nerves calmed I tried it and it started and did drive it to see if it still worked and did.    Stupid car…. there’s a recall for something close to that problem.  There solution was little plastic clips for the spark plugs.  as the spark plugs are close to were you put the oil in and that has been enough to start a fire in the car… Now I see how. Very unsettling.  You see I use to have a Dodge Neon and the head on that car went at only 43,000 miles and we didn’t have money to fix it.  We constantly put oil in that car all the time and didn’t think twice about pulling over and doing it when we were in the middle of driving it somewhere.  it was just one of those things and if you spill a little it smokes…. no biggy.   Guess it is a biggy in this car. 
I feel crappy that Jonathan was in the car during this… and had no way out till I came and got him.  But deep down I knew that if that if that attempted didn’t put it out the kids were my priority and I knew he wasn’t out and him out of that car was my goal.
