You know those days? The days that everything seems to go wrong. I mean I really should be more annoyed at my life today but really I'm just feeling down.
First. My husband is sick, he has pink eye and some kind of sore throat that gives him this amazing sexy voice. And of course, he is at work. He has so much to get done that he can't stand to take a day to be sick!
Second. The school called and they lost my child. Ok, well they didn't really LOSE the child, but they marked her as absent and wanted to know if she was home sick today. NO she isn't and she's only 6 years old, not old enough OR smart enough to skip school! So in full panic while the nurse put me on hold to double check to see if my child was indeed at school. Thank goodness because it's -25 outside and I can't imagine where she would have gone to!
Then...not even an hour later...just as I got started on my daily chores. The school calls AGAIN and this time it's my other child who is in the office with a busted lip and well, they aren't certain but it may need stitches.
So, of course, this means URGENT CARE, and in our area a trip to urgent care could cost you an entire day in your life, not to mention if you didn't have strep throat BEFORE setting foot in the clinic...well congratulations, you do now, and an ear infection to boot.
Well luckily it was a slow day at urgent care, or should I call it the "I have an ear infection/sore throat/can't wait to see my doctor/or I cut my finger off" clinic...
we got in right away.
The doctor we saw first just happens to be a family friend, she wasn't sure if we needed stitches, but she thought maybe.
She called a plastic surgeon...he wasn't available but he suggested maybe it should be stitched by an ENT or ORAL surgeon.
ENT saw us and said "no I'm not gonna stitch it"
ok..it's only her face. sure let's mess around until she has a gaping gross scar on her face for the rest of her life...good plan! And oh yeah, thanks for the confidence!
Back to school she goes.
Then at home, I get the call. The call from the vet that my cat's ashes are in. I've already cried for this cat today and NOW I have to face bringing him home and opening up that wound.
Maybe I should visit urgent care and see if they should stitch that together.
You might read this and go...wow it isn't really that bad. Then, I have a friend who isn't talking to me...and I'm not sure what's up with that....
wow....can it get any worse?
