Wm, whilst playing Lego Harry Potter on the iPad:Mom, Harry went to go potty. He went to pee, and after he peed he washed his hands. And then he went out of the bathroom and into the bedroom and put his dresses in the closet door and then he went to bed. He put his jammies on too and went to bed. And then Harry Potter was done sleeping and he got ( Read more... )

Been swamped with a pair of end-of-season concerts, birthdays of all 4 members of the household (Wm's is still upcoming on Saturday, it's hard for him to have his last when he's the one who cares most), various travel (first all of us, currently just wrog), mom scheduled for spine surgery this week and my own unexplained ouchiness ( Read more... )

WTF.

By a somewhat circuitous route, I came across "Beading to Beat Autism." It's a cool story: 10 year old girl's brother gets an experimental treatment, it seems to help, the hospital wants to do a study on 20 more kids but need more money, she makes cheap bracelets to sell for donations and raises $300K to fund the study. Now she's set her sights on ( Read more... )

Apparently when the zithromax was out of my system (you take it for 5 days, it works for 5 more), I started feeling sick again. That was yesterday, where by lunchtime I had that odd not-quite-dizzy that happens when you're coming down with something, progressing to fever by early afternoon and sore throat by evening. So today's doctor visit started ( Read more... )

Two meals of solid food in a row! I think I'm nearly back to normal, though there is one area of my right tonsil that will not. stop. bugging. me. Yesterday I had a brief bout of "shit, I'm getting a fever again" because my temp bounced over 100, but it seems to have been an aberration (I am still hanging out around 99.6, but I tend to run warmer ( Read more... )

really?

I had to go back to urgent care this morning because the amoxicillin was taking down the fever, but not the tonsils, which were completely white and danged near touching my uvula. Got a shot, got new antibiotics, got steroids, got lidocaine to gargle with. Between all these things I hope to be able to maybe eat some food tomorrow? Smoothies, boost ( Read more... )

so tired of being sick.

After the winter of half-a-dozen colds, I got to have the Spring Break of Gastric Distress (all I can say is thank goodness zoos and amusement parks have bathrooms EVERYWHERE). And now I have strep -- last night my fever shot up from 100 to 103 in two hours, whereupon I took 600 mg of advil and watched it continue to climb. After 2 hours of chills ( Read more... )

Went to the Madrona Fiber Arts retreat. Won a door prize of a $25 gift certificate which I used to get some lovely cashgora/tussah silk fiber. Yum ( Read more... )

I got to sing! On the off-ramp en route to the hall I looked in my rear view mirror as we all had to stop and saw the car behind me getting uncomfortably close. I like to believe I held him off from rear-ending me through sheer force of projecting NO ACCIDENTS, I AM SINGING TONIGHT ;-) ... all of which was good, because the soprano section was down ( Read more... )
