It's going to be 61 here on Wednesday. That is extreme weather as far as I am concerned.

jewels my calendar from Shutterfly already arrived..granted I haven't opened it since it's a family Xmas gift. I get annoyed with their free stuff being high shipping, but they have my photos from mykodakgallery stored, and I've used them for cards for years (except this year), and I've been pleased. I have done several free books too and they are nice.

We have gotten several notices in the past about dc car break-ins. I put my wallet in the center console and lock my car. Do not want to deal with my car getting broken into. Us too. If y’all remember, my neighbor got robbed while she was pregnant and trying to buckle her son in his car seat at daycare. I never leave my purse in the car. It’s a total pain in the ass to carry H, my purse, his bag & Mara’s lunch in & out every time, but totally worth it to not have to cancel my credit cards, re-key my house, and buy new makeup.

H had a 102 fever at the pedi. He tested negative for the flu so she said it was probably RSV and an EI. His lungs sound okay though. I’m supposed to continue with the ear drops for his infected ear and she gave me an oral antibiotic that will hopefully clear up his respiratory issues.
We talked about the tubes/EI again. She reminded me that the tubes wouldn’t prevent the EIs, just make them not hurt as badly and it won’t affect his hearing. She said he’s just one of the unlucky ones that catches every virus at daycare.
Other than that I’m just supposed to continue what I’m doing with Tylenol, saline, suction & steam.

I'm glad he doesn't have the flu tgrimes, but poor guy. Hopefully the antibiotics help quickly.

melaniesue I'm sorry for your loss. I hope you make it to the movie tonight. mwhip congratulations on quitting smoking and YH's new job! lfig sorry the puking is back. I hope you get it under control. Hope the baby is doing better. tgrimes sorry for another EI. I had a busy day of watching a Friend's marathon with C. He was only up twice last night which was amazing. I overdid it this weekend so I took it easy today. Sent DH on a bunch of errands. I need to make him a list of the rest of what needs to be done this week. I'm not one to stay home ever so I'm a bit stir crazy. I'm trying to remind myself this will probably be my last down time for like 20 years so I should soak it in. I tried to weight myself and I thought my scale said "bad" but it said batt, as in the battery is dead. It's probably best that way. I'll fix it after the holidays.

snoopmommymom Happy Birthday! I hope your day improved. I was lucky to have several older friends at work when DS1 was born who taught me about life insurance. We did term policies then because they were affordable. Now we also have additional policies through work.

I dropped my Jeep off at the dealership to get some work done. They just called with an estimate...$1200! What a fine time for that 🙄.

Happy birthday snoopmommymom and chrisy01! Continued positive thoughts for your nephew and sick kiddos tgrimes. Sending my love melaniesue and klong11. mwhip of course I'm proud of your husband for quiting smoking but also bug congrats to you. My husband was an anxious bitch when he quit and it about did me in. 😁 I'm fixated watching footage of the train crash. I need to turn it off. I go under that underpass everyday commuting to work. So sad. Not sure if I should call out of work tomorrow because the freeway might still be a nightmare.

Happy Birthday snoopmommymom! I hope your day improved from this morning. Glad they were able to pinpoint a problem and have a plan to fix it re: baby lfig. Ouch about the Jeep and I hope your problem is over soon. The universe can leave H the F alone. Damn how much can that little one take?! Poor guy. tgrimes I hope the meds work quickly. I think I forgot some things. Forgive me. Took me all day to catch up.

Busy day at work. I did manage to address and stamp most of the Christmas cards. I forgot to drop them off at the Post on the way home, though. I’ll do it on the way to work tomorrow.
If you haven’t seen my Snapchat, In my rush to leave this morning, I managed to put on two different shoes. I was thanking the Lord that I was sitting at a scanner all day and not walking the halls with patients like I was last week. Still not sure how I didn’t catch that one. 🤦🏽♀️ We had a good laugh about it, though.

Poor H tgrimes. I'm so sorry y'all are dealing with this. I hope he's on the mend soon and that 2018 will be much better for your family on the health front. lfig ugh, hate car repairs. No fun spending money on stuff like that.

We are finishing up Season 2 of The Crown tonight...it's been so good, maybe even better than the 1st? I'll be sorry to see it end and have to wait for the third.
C had an ok day; she's figured out how to crawl w/ the splint on. Poor girl, but at least that gives her a bit of independence. Funny how she's only been walking for less than 3 months but I already take it for granted that she can do it. We are back to carrying her a lot and girlfriend is HEAVY.

Just caught up after a loooong day at work. Happy birthday, snoopmommymom! I'm glad H doesn't have the flu, tgrimes, but it's frustrating to hear that this constant illness may continue. Chase is still so much sicker than Colin ever was - it's not nearly as bad and it still drives me nuts. I'm sorry.

Colin woke up wet this morning and was heartbroken about it. DH (!) and I both reassured him that accidents happen and that no one was mad, so thankfully he shook it off. He didn't think twice tonight and wore underwear again.
