Yay, my SS is here for the summer! He has gotten so big. I am going to take him to the pool, weather permitting, tomorrow.
The afternoon has been fun, but I am wore out-ish. I already have a playdate set up next week with my gf and her 7 yo girl. Zoo and pool. OMG, I have a mom hat!
Sox, I have a friend who lives in DesPlaines, a lot closer to Rosemont, but he pays around $950 for his 1BR. Problem with that area is that you have be there to inspect the complex, because there are a lot of iffy areas in that town. His complex is great, but just a few blocks down is cheaper and iffier.
Have your friend look around Harwood Heights, Elmwood Park, or Chicago's Jefferson Park neighborhood (just down the Kennedy from Rosemont). Elmwood Park is probably equidistant to Rosemont as DesPlaines is, but south instead of north, and there are more affordable places there, I think. Also, they'd be closer to the city and Oak Park.
I am back from the doctor, and I don't have pneumonia!
... I might have mono. The lab results letting me know will be back tomorrow.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I work in DesPlaines/Niles area and wholeheartedly agree with this statement.

Oh dear, Jilli. I sort of hope not...except that it would explain a lot.
I was about 10 years older than I imagine you are when I had it and survived, but it was a long old road. Good luck and good health!

It would, wouldn't it. Dammit. I don't have time for mono!
Anyway, my doc gave me a huge shot full of zinc, vitamins C & B, and a whole bunch of immunity-boosting stuff. (Oww, my hip stings.) She also said "You're a chronic insomniac! Taking 5mg of Ambien every night is better than you constantly being sleep deprived. Don't argue".
Why does my mother still seem to think that, if she just figures out the right cure, I'll magically become an extrovert? This is just me. I don't need to, or want to, be fixed. (And really, why does she think that the toddler who would run and hide when company came over could somehow become an adult who loves parties?)
Jilli, I really hope it's not. But if it is, you have got to sleep as much as possible. And it's easy to feel better after a couple of days and think you're okay, then overdo it.
Keeping my fingers crossed it's not!
