Again it rains....

So, its been a while. much has happened. last weekend was pretty hellish. Friday night we had to take L to the ER, it turned out she had an ear infection and cut a new tooth. From all the rain R's parents basement flooded (its more their family room/kids playroom) so they had to rip up the carpet. R called me at like 4am Saturday, his grandmother passed away. I come home from work on Tuesday and R has a fever of 101.5 and he is ache and not moving much. I put him to bed super early...and end up falling asleep on the couch. I woke up around 2 or so and could barely move my joints hurt so bad ( you know like the prelude to a bad cold or flu) and I had the scratchy throat thing going on. Wednesday he wakes up feeling good, lucky for him since its the day of the funeral. Seems these days for the older folks they do everything in one day. Viewing/service/cemetery. So our day starts at 9am (we had to be at the funeral home) Dayquil is my best friend at this point and not doing a good job but making it a little easier to stand and be social. By the time we got home after the luncheon it was like 3 we all took naps. K woke up first around 5:30 or so. I call my mom searching for chicken soup and a little TLC. (this is where living less then 7 miles from mommy is a wonderful thing).
By the time she got here I was miserable. She makes some chicken soup in the crock pot for the next day for me. and gives the girls bathes. while R annoys me with questions about what to pack for his trip to florida the following morning....
His ride comes at 4:30 (a buddy that is going with him) R doesn't unlock the door dog barks wakes me up....not happy about that but I take another dose of nyquil and am off to lala land. R's mom takes the girls for the day (he was suppose to be coming off nights, so it was her day to watch them) I finally get in touch with my Dr and get in to see him at 3pm. He take a look in my mouth and says "its very infected in there Rebecca" with a stern look. gee thanks doc ya think?!? so off I go with a 'script for omnicef. tonsillitis....who the hell gets tonsillitis these days? usually its strep. no no I one up that and get tonsillitis...and it seems once you have gotten it you are more likely to get it again. Jack pot!
Any way i have to cancel my trip to Boston to flowergirl dress shop and visit T (thankfully he is doing wonderfully. surgery was a success so far. ) I am annoyed that I have to cancel but don't want to drive that far alone and sick...or risk exposing any of our other friends to something that could make T sick. So that gets postponed.
R's mom again takes the girls Friday for most of the day allowing me to rest. it was so cold I had to put the heat on....and I still couldn't get warm. it was crazy. I haven't been that sick in a long time.
Saturday was a shitty day out...it rained and was cold. so we stayed in and pretty much watched movies all day...bad mommy. Sunday was cool and sunny. So off to the orchard we went. The girls went on pony rides, pet some animals....rode the little tractors and picked pumpkins. We brought home some yummy apples, cider and cider donuts. Its was a good day. I finally am feeling normal and its not like I have a softball stuck in my throat anymore.
Today was alright, I have so much work to catch up on its ridiculous. I dread this year workwise. R extended his trip another day to experience hurricane Wilma first hand (we have been through 2 so far...why not get the third out of the system, his logic not mine). So he should be taking off about now (9:47pm....it was delayed from 8:15pm) I will definitely be alseep when he gets home. oh yeah its raining again and they have flood warnings in effect.

Oh well...I have rambled way too long I believe. So I am going to watch the food network for a bit then go to bed. Night ya'll
