Getting Worse!

To look at the bright side, my brother-in-law did come and get my neice yesterday afternoon (after I took her to the office and she was diagnosed with bilateral ear infections and wheezing...) She was sweet and I love her, but boy do I have a lot to get done! Tommorrow is Annelise's surgery, so I cleaned like a crazy woman today. I did get a lot done, so I feel better about that. While I was cleaning, my friend Erika called and told me that her daughter woke up with a fever and sore throat. You may be asking, "So what?" Well, she was supposed to take Emmaline to school and pick her up for me tommorrow during Annelise's surgery. (Her daughter and Emmaline are in the same class.) She is at the office right now getting seen and diagnosed. But, the surgery center called and said that the surgery was scheduled for 10:15, and we don't have to be there until 9:15, so we will be able to take Emmaline to school at least. How we are going to pick her up we have not figured out yet. Where there's a will there's a way, right? We will see. Needless to say, I am looking forward to spending a few mindless hours on the couch watching football on Saturday. Hopefully Clemson will easily beat Wake Forest, and I also hope to see the SC chickens get eaten by the gators. My mom got Annelise a movie for her "surgery prize", so I will let them watch it while the Clemson game is on. (They will go to bed when the Carolina game is starting.) To say the least, it has been a pretty stressful week. Oh, and let's not forget the Aqua Dot recall- of which my children have about 10,000. I better not have a problem getting my money back for them. Some of it I am just going to have to cut my losses. The small kits with the different templates are all over the playroom. So, I have probably lost about $30.00- but it could be worse!! Our neighbors came to get the contract for the pasture sale last night. They should be signing it and bringing it back today. I look forward to closing on that in January. I am just trying to get done with this week for now. Usually when we have a yucky week, a good one follows. I hope that is the case here!
