Preppy Girl's Guide

Monday - both kids wake up with fevers. We stay home. I notice that a sore on my son's leg isn't healing quite right so I call the doctor. We head over in the afternoon and while in the waiting room, my son splits his temple open on a chair (good timing eh?) He was okay, just a lot of blood. Some Keflex for his leg and a batman bandaid for his head made him all better.

Tuesday - Kids back to school, me back to work. All day my left arm hurts. I haven't been feeling well in general so I chalk it up that. Later that evening I get chest pains. That's right folks CHEST PAINS. It scares the bejesus out of me (especially considering my arm pain all day). We make a trip to the ER where they rule out heart attack (thank God) - but can't really tell me anything else. Good times.

Wednesday - I actually stay home and my husband takes me to the doctor. Again, no answers just more tests. I feel better than last night but now my back hurts from lying on a gurney the night before (my whole side is going numb). I think I'm falling apart.

Thursday - I wake up with scratchy throat. GREAT. Just when I thought I might be feeling better, this comes along. I spend the day downing medication and feeling dizzy. I'm getting old.

Friday - Drop off the kids and come back out to the van only to find it won't start. WTF? Did someone put a curse on me this week? I call around and the dealership sends out a tech who finds my relay line has been disconnected. Now I fear sabotage. Who is trying to do me in?

Hope the weekend goes better... couldn't get much worse eh?
