the sickies

So i blogged about the fact that I spent Christmas night at the er. They were very nice to me and gave me drugs that made me forget that i was in pain. Well last night baby S Spiked a fever and had yet another fibril sesiuror and we rushed him to the er. He is fine just panicked the wife and I. Then to top it all off K got up this morning complaining with chest pains and shortness of breath. this is the same thing that happened at her dads last week and he and the new wife told her it was a chest cold to suck it up. well off to the Dr we go. K has a history of atrial flutters and I was not willing to take a chance that it was something more than that. well our pediatrician is on vacation so we had to see the senior partner in the practice. this man is old and crabby, almost as soon as he came in the office the wife's new cell (which she hasn't mastered) started beeping and the man scolded my wife and told her to turn it off. No big deal we just kind of exchanged a look. Then get this in the middle of examining my daughter HIS cell rings.... he stopped and took a personal call in the middle of my daughters exam! EXCUSE ME OH NO YOU DIDN'T. I will deal with this just as soon as our Dr is back and we don't need this man. Anyway that wasn't even the worst part. K mentioned that she runs and the man had the nerve to tell her that her boobs were to big for her to run. WTF this man needs to retire or something. He then ordered a chest xray , EKG, and blood work to see what the problem is. So now we are home in front of the fire relaxing dinner is in the oven and soon we will eat and relax some more. we are keeping our fingers crossed that E stays healthy.

life or something like it.

so this has been a very crazy week. first K comes home from school on Monday with a cold/flu yuck. I figure at this point we will all end up with it. she misses school on Tuesday and the Nazi principal calls to find out where she is. Ummm in bed with a fever very sick. he yells about this being the week that students are counted for funding and she better have a note so they can still count her. Hello FU#$ wad she is sick, it is my prerogative as her mother to keep her home. Leave us alone. Now if she was the kind of child that missed a lot of school i could see why he called but this is the first day that she has missed all year. Sooo sorry we didn't check with you before we scheduled her with the flu. Asshole! Well E got it next though not as bad a few doses of over the counter meds and he was back to good. the wife, Spencer and i were good up until yesterday when i had to take a trip to urgent care. I had a headache that would not go away. turns out it was a muscle spasm tension induced headache that the Dr said would be helped by removing stress for my life. I had 3 call offs while i was in the Dr office. Stress what stress. So i told that nice man to sign me up for a 1 week drug induced coma. He didn't go for it, so i will fight these headaches with the very good drugs he gave me . the baby and the wife are still doing well. Fingers crossed it stays that way.
