LIR RESPATI BUMIDAYA
So I was feeling very blessed last post. I still do, but sometimes I
just have to be grumpy. We'll blame it on the pregnancy hormones.
I am still pissed off about our rise in health insurance with no RX coverage and a really effing high premium, but there's not much I can do. I am getting on my own employer's insurance as well, that way, between the two, I won't have to pay quite as much (if you don't count the premiums anyway). Nonetheless, there's not much I can do about any of it. I guess that's the part that pisses me off the most. I don't have any control. I never thought of myself as a control freak, but I do like my ability to resolve situations. This is one where I can't do much. I guess I could be bitter towards some of our government officials, or even the people who voted them into office, but it doesn't solve anything, so I try not to waste my time.
Anyway, it's been a long last couple of weeks. Audri was diagnosed with Scarlet Fever last Wednesday and Addison an ear infection on Sunday. Scarlet Fever sounds terrible, but ultimately, it's just a rash caused by Strep - easily cleared up with amoxicillan. Fast forward to 2:30 AM on Tuesday, and Audri throws up all over our bed. The doctor said she picked up a stomach virus and Strep around the same time. Poor girl! She was feeling better within 24 hours or so, but I slept on the couch with her for 2 nights, and my back is definitely feeling it. Or it could be the basketball I'm carrying around in front.
We also got a donkey within this time period, finished moving the girls into their new room, finished the baby's room, and got a new door for the basement. This is also the busiest time of the school year, as procrastinating students are turning in a semester's worth of work, meaning I have a ton of grading to do. Shit, no wonder I'm stressed. It's nice to stuff done, but I need someretail therapy sort of break.
However, my mom and dad have helped with a ton of stuff around the house to help us prepare for the baby. I still have probably 9 weeks to go, but as my hormones are now signaling to me, it's probably better to have it all done now so I don't have to freak out about it later. I forgot how much 3rd Trimester hormones suck.
And we'll end with another old country song
