That weekend felt short. Two former coworkers start at my current company today. Excited for them.

I worked 1/2 day both Saturday and Sunday and I have a long week coming up. 4 more weeks total (but I only work 2 days the last week).

I did the outside Christmas lights yesterday after the house was photographed. My hands are so cut up, but it was worth it to see how excited the kids were PDQ

Hoping to get to Target early this morning.. the parking at our Target is literally the worst. I've started crafting our sweaters for an Ugly Sweater party this weekend. They won't really be too ugly but they are certainly time consuming. I always prefer a DIY sweater over a store bought one.

I haven’t pooped since last Tuesday/Wednesday, I am dying. Today, I will get a suppository, and damn if I’m not thrilled about it.
In other news, pain is backed way off, and I can do some stairs.

I’ll see if I can dig it out.

I am headed to Miami for work today. It’s art fair week there and I curated a space for the program I work for. It should be a lot of fun, but I have to be there for a whole week, without P or MH. It’s the longest I’ll have ever been away from P. I was definitely crying this morning getting her ready for daycare.

coconutbacon, aw that's hard!! It sounds really cool though! Betweenthelines nice lights! Peekaru I hope things move along for your sake I'm home with sick kids. Well neither of them are sick today but I felt like I should quarantine them an extra day before they go back to daycare. And I have a headache so I didn't want to go to work.

apparently this doctor can't be seen by just anyone. Our primary doctor has to be connected to the clinic this doctor is in. She is not. I don't know what to do.

I’m so annoyed at my bank. I noticed that they had randomly charged me 2 “insufficient funds” fees of $35 each on Saturday, even though my account was never overdrawn. I called them Saturday and the guy basically said no problem, I’m reversing them, should be fixed in 48 hours. Well I checked this morning and the fees are still there so I called again. Now they say that my request to reverse the fees has been “declined.” And I can wait 5-7 business days for a call from a manager who will then decide whether to refund the fees or not. Wtf??? They can’t even tell me WHY the fees were charged but I need to wait a week for a decision about whether they’re giving my money back? Ughhh

The weather is gorgeous today so I took advantage of it and went to the zoo with Abigail. All the walking was an added exercise bonus and it was so empty there. I love when the zoo isn't crowded!

amberlie developmental specialist which is who our pedi would like us to see next. She reffered two places who have not called me back and one of those places likely isn't taking new patients. This doctor was recommended to me by a friend.

My new update is this.
Apparently you just need to have been seen by this clinic, not necessarily a ongoing patient. So, I made an appointment with a pedi at this clinic, with a note saying I am looking for a referral to the developmental specialist department. It's possible we might switch to this clinic entirely. I love our pedi, very much, but she's only available tues,thurs and fridays which most of the time isn't a huge deal. But there have been times ii've wanted to talk with her and I can't because she's not there. Plus according to the intake person i talked to, one of hte interests this pedi we are seeing thursday has is ADHD kids. So thats good. She will either be able to help us out or refer us.

I need the sickness to leave my house.
Littlest had a random fever that knocked him out on Saturday. Just a random 24 hours low grade fever. Little started acting sick last night. Yep, fever. This morning he complained his throat hurt and, sure enough, I can see white spots. To the ped we go. As we were waiting for the strep test results, the doctor is convinced it's just a cold. Runs through the do this and this. Then proceeds to tell me "well, actually, kids this age will complain of a stomach ache rather than a sore throat when they have a strep." Ok dude, but my kid has complained of a sore throat in the past so... Guess what. Positive for strep. Now I'm sad Little is sick but I wanted to throat punch the doctor for basically blowing me off. He wants me to get Little tested to see if he's a strep carrier so the ped is still trying to prove he's right.
I don't particularly like this ped- I've seen him in the past and felt like he just blew off my concerns then as well. I would not have scheduled an appointment with him but I figured this was pretty straight forward.

😞 apparently this doctor can't be seen by just anyone. Our primary doctor has to be connected to the clinic this doctor is in. She is not. I don't know what to do. Oh no! As hard as it would be, it might be worth it to switch. ETA: just saw your update. Glad it seems like things are possible now!

Betweenthelines, I want to house stalk! But I also realize that might be too much information. Also, thanks guys! My colon felt your love and produced something spectacular, I feel SO much better.
