H has been up since 2 and still won’t drink anything. I know he’s in pain but we’re on a schedule for meds.
This blows y’all.

I'm sorry, tgrimes. I hope the meds give him a little relief. Can he eat yet?

tgrimes I’m sorry it’s so rough, hope he improves as the day goes on. Was the doctor satisfied with how the surgery went?

I came home last night so DH can have a beach day with his friends today and DS can go to hockey. We are going swimming at my sister’s then to hockey and then heading back to the beach. T’s friends are coming tomorrow so he’s very excited. Lots of driving for me though because my sister is 45 minutes away and hockey is 20.

Morning. The big girls have swimming lessons this morning back at the normal pool. It’s supposed to get to 95 today so I’m planning to find a pool or lake this afternoon to cool off in.

We went to a water park yesterday. I went on a slide that scared the shit out of me because the kids were begging to go on it. Never.again. Holy shit it was terrifying. It was solid darkness so you didn't know which way you were going as water sprayed up your nose. I thought for sure C would be traumatized but she loved it. All the other slides were fun though. I told them I earned more lazy river time after that shit.
I had the most amazing smoked salmon salad. So yummy.
Today we're going to check out the lake. I want to kayak.

I got him to take the pain meds orally. He’s in his 2nd popsicle and he said that the meds made him feel better.
Grandma is on her way here to bring me a salad and to love on H.

Grandma. Ever. Glad he's taking his meds and realizes they help. Hopefully you can remind him of that when he refuses again.
