Tomorrow is Friday!

Is it just me or has this week dragged on seemingly forever. Uhg. I hate that!

Tomorrow however is Friday! While the weather has been great all week... I am looking forward to a bit of down time. Life has just been too stressful.

Oh and if anyone sees my idiot ex-husband... tell him to pay his child support before I lose yet another apartment. Sorry, it turned into a rant... it's been one of those weeks I tell ya!

Is today opposite day?

A Douche Bag is You NEVER gets nearly the visits Random Chele-ness does in a day... let alone double it.

I am so confused. >.<

If you click it, it should grow.

I have a freakin fever?

What the crap?!? I can't name the last time I have a fever. I think I blame the damn flu shot.

I am going to play a little game called take nothing and see if it gets worse. It's only 100.7 right now. If it hits 102.0 I'll consider taking something. Bleh!

Feeling a bit saucy today...

It's one of those days, where I would simply dare someone to piss me off. No, it isn't PMS, that was last week thanks. This is just plain old, FML, FTW, FYA, belligerence. On that note, if someone I loved were to step up, I think I'd have to warn them to back off, I would hate to mess up a pretty or beloved face.

Does anyone else get these days? I think it's a "sick of taking shit" day... maybe. I don't know. I think to be on the safe side I should probably stay home, jail isn't fun.

Emma hasn't been feeling well

So last night we swung into the Minute Clinic... no go. Urgent Care hasn't been open since then either and no "sick" appointments open at the clinic of course... So, we drug her into the E.R. or E.D. as they now call it, but I can't help but think of other things with those initials. >.< I blame commercials.

At any rate, my little doctor phobic sweet-pea did wonderfully.

Still in her street clothes.

My booty has to hang out why? So silly.

 The listened to her lungs, looked in her ears, nose and throat, poked and prodded her and even swabbed her throat, all without one word of protest from my 57 (omg!) lb sweet-pea. I can't believe she weighs 57 lbs, that's like... over 10 times what she weighed when she was born.

At any rate, the rapid strep came back good and she was diagnosed with an Upper Respiratory Infection and Sinus Congestion. He is wondering if she doesn't need her adenoids out, so he had us set up appointments with our Family Practice Doc to get a referral to an ENT... okay. lol

Emma did so wonderfully she got a special little bear from the E.D. nurse as we left, 3 stickers and lots of praise. She of course wants me to take pics so I'll probably edit this post later. Can't take the pics now, Bear is sleeping in her bed, all tucked in and sleepy from his E.D. visit, we wouldn't want to disturb his sleep for something silly like pictures.

All in all, Emma has a day off school, we have at least 2 appointments to make and a possible surgery coming up. Fun fun. Let's hope she keeps this great attitude/behavior towards the Docs.

Oh yeah baby, I got mine!

...

What were you thinking? I got my flu shot! Minds in the gutters, I tell ya. :p

We actually headed to the Minute Clinic to get Emma's throat looked at but they were booked until close, so we tried a couple others, same thing. Blah. She said it could wait but I didn't want the trip to be a complete waste so I stopped into Walgreen's and got my flu shot on. I let Emma watch so when I take her for hers she already knows it doesn't hurt. It seriously didn't hurt, at all. Not even a pinch. Either she's really good, or flu shots are that easy.

At any rate, with the flu statistics I've heard for this year, we're not taking any risks, all of my kids are getting one, like it or not. (They'll appreciate it in the long run, I am such a mean mommy.)

I think this will probably be my last post on this blog for the night... so have a great one!

And on a gorgeous day, what do we do?

Chill in the grass together. (Mommy and Emma)

Relax and enjoy.

Get up and dance.

Make funny faces for the camera.

Pretend like your mom would put you up for rent.

Pounce like a lion!

Lion dead.

What did you say mom?

Oh you want a big cheesy grin? Here!

And now... a frog.

And one of "those statues that spits water".

Speaking of water, need a drink.

And maybe a sammich! Ohh a picnic! Yay!

I don't know what y'all do on a nice day like today, but this is what we did. Right after school we came back home, parked our bums in the grass and had some outside fun, including a picnic. Now, mommy is blogging about it and Emma is kicking some bad guy butt on Lego Batman for the 360. That's my girl! I hope everyone else took a few minutes to get outside and enjoy the day, it was just beautiful.
