One of the sucky parts of parenting, and there are many, is that when the kids are grounded you are grounded too. Tonight is DH's pool night so I made a plan to go hang with a GF and have some drinks with Lost. Now I can't go because I have to stay and make sure my son is adequately miserable. No cell phone, no computer, no life. I have the phone and I could take the router. I don't know. I'll see when the time comes.
Rotten kid loves reading so even when I take all the electronic stuff away he still gets lost in some book. I can't take away books.
Make him write a report for every book he reads.
Gah. Doc isn't sure what it is. Could be meningitis? They wanted to do a spinal tap. Um. No. Not until you rule everything else that might be reasonable out. Tonight we are supposed to go to urgent care at midnight to have his pulse ox read. I loathe urgent care (the people who told K she had strept when she actually had mono). Feh.
Oh shit, Kat. Health~ma to Noah and sanity~ma to you.

Oh dear Kat, and keep Dr. House away! Get better quick thoughts and prayers headed his way.
Figure-it-out--fast-and-cure-it-and-no-spinal-tap~ma to you and Noah and the doctors, Kat. I'm so sorry. Urgent care absolutely sucks out loud.
Ah, parenthood.
good times! (and omg!)
Today was report card day here. It was not a good day.
and yet? you set standards, you stick to them. it sucks, but you still do it. this is good. We have noted one UOU (universe owes you) for drinks and show ...
Make him write a report for every book he reads.
I used to love that. I wrote one in reverse-writing for through the looking glass. my mom was annoyed. chuffed and annoyed. I forget what my wrongdoing was. but remember the punishment. amusing.
Great. Left leg doing sausage impersonation. Painful sausage impersonation at that.
You worry me. Could any of your meds cause blood clots? Get that looked at, okay?
Kat, I hope you have an excellent urgent care doc who takes excellent care of Noah.
Laura and Cash, sorry about the pains of parenthood, but I do love the stories and the pictures.
And now... baby giraffe.
I wrote one in reverse-writing for through the looking glass.
Shiny! Do you do the mirror writing thing? I had a friend with dyslexia that could do that flawlessly. It was wild to watch.
Oh! Tiny giraffe!
