Reason #2,857 not to get up in the morning…

This is where I drove between 7:30 am and 6:00pm today

I haven’t updated in 4 weeks. There is a good reason for it.

work.

Yeah, yeah…I asked for it. I knew it would be hard to get up and do a 12 hour day. I can’t complain because I am getting paid for all my diligence and percerverance.

HOWEVER…..

(Here comes the whine) I’m tired. It’s hard. Cry. Moan. Groan. Whhaaaaa!!! I don’t get home until it’s almost dark and I wear my scrubs more than I wear regular clothes! I don’t get to see my friends as much as I used to and I still have to work when my parents come to town next week while they are here. Alone. Booo!

ahem…ok..I’m done.

No seriously…work has been a big big change in our household and in my life. I am getting up while it’s still dark outside, I’m making it to work on time, and I am giving 110% at the clinic. Most people know I am NOT a morning person, so I’m pretty darn proud of myself for not getting fired for not showing up to work on time! LOL

In other news…we have also been dealing with sickness and injury. I got a cold which turned into bronchitis and that required antibiotics and nebulizer treatments every 6 hours to which I am still not over. I think it’s time for some steroids.
Jon ended up at the doctor as well with belly pain. That turned into a visit to the diagnostics center at hospital for a CT scan. The doctor thought it might be a kidney stone, but that was declared all clear. What they did see was some streaking in his colon so the doc thought it was diverticulitis. All I could think was, great. Now we both suffer from that?? Fabulous!! Just what we both need.
Add insult to injury I have a pretty severe case of tendonitis in my left wrist that requires 12 sessions of ultrasound to deliver medicine to the tendon. I haven’t even begun the treatment yet, I’m that busy with work. Hopefully that’ll get started very soon.
Brenna came home from school yesterday sick and ended up testing posative for the Flu virus at the doctors office!! I mean, come on?! Because she was wheezing they couldn’t give her the inhaled medicine for the flu and so she’ll have ride it out until then. Then Lauren came home early from drama practice with an upset tummy. It’s all too much. Hopefully they will be 100% well before Mom, Dad, and Leslie come for their visit on Saturday. OMG…that is 4 days away!!

On top of all that, or I guess I should say inbetween all that, I got to get away for a couple of days with my girlfriends last weekend. We went to Canton and stayed in a B & B there. Wellll…I wouldn’t exactly call it a bed and breakfast, more like a room and pancakes. Definately not high class, but a lot of fun for sure!

I’m looking forward to this weekend when I get to see my Mom and Dad and Sister! I’m a little bummed that I only get 4 out of 7 days with them before they have to leave, but 4 is better than none!

Now if only I could get a maid in here to clean up the place!
