So this weekend was so extremely fabulous you are all going to just die! I had to work at Lakeview on Friday night, which I am loving and I hope that they are going to be able to guarantee me some hours so that I can quit the care center, but I am just PRN right now so the hours aren't guaranteed. But anyway back to the happenings of the weekend. So at about 3 AM I heard Brad get up and I waited and waited for him to come back to bed but when he never did I went to find out what the deal was and he was sitting on the couch just about passed out in pain. He had this tooth that broke about a month ago and he went to the dentist but his dentist said that the roots on this tooth were so wierd that he had to see a specialist to get the work done on it so then we took our sweet little time deciding that the insurance wasn't going to cover enough of that kind of work and that he was just going to get it pulled but his appointment to get it pulled wasn't until next Thursday. So I get the phone book and start looking for an emergency dentist. I found only one that gave an after hours number and so I called it and I am sure he was so excited to hear from me at 5:00 AM but he agreed to see him in a few hours. So I called the care center and told them that my husband had to have emergency surgery and so he obviously couldn't do that with two small children and I wouldn't be in. Brad went to the dentist and had the tooth pulled and they found that the infection had gone clear up his face and into his ear, Lovely! The dentist gave him anti-biotics and big time pain killers and he spent the rest of the day holding his face. So much fun!
That afternoon was Emma's swimming birthday party with her friends at the rec center, and they had so much fun, she had about 13 of her closest friends there and they all got to go down the big yellow water slide and around the lazy river with Trev (thanks trev for all your help in the water and to Mom, Jaclyn and JoDee for all your help too!) After swimming we came back to the house for cupcakes and ice cream and presents, all around it was a great party!
I had to work on Sunday at the care center in the morning, and of course we were short, so I didn't get out of there until almost 3. So by the time I got home I had enough time to straighten the house and stuff the dirty dishes in the dishwasher. Emma had developed this yucky cough so I gave her some tylenol flu and she promptly went to her bed and fell asleep. I thought that was a little unusual, Emma just doesn't do that. When I went to get her up for her dinner for her birthday with her grandparents, she was VERY hot. I took her temp and it was 105! So I rushed her to the instacare and they said that she might have strep throat. They took a throat culture and sent it out. The doc told me that I should just try to control her symptoms and that they would call me in 1-2 days. We went back to her party, Emma was so worried that she was going to miss her cake. We covered the cake with plastic wrap and she blew out her candles and opened her presents from Grandma and Grandpa Hyde. She wasn't too exciteed about the whole party business, at least she might remember it for a long time. So this morning her temp is only 100, that isn't quite as scary as 105! She is only drinking water, but at least she won't get dehydrated.
So that was our fantastic weekend! ( you should have sensed the sarcasm from the beginning) Maybe next weekend will be better.
Oh ya - I forgot and make it all so much better we woke up to an inch of snow on the ground! What is up with that, it's like kickin a man when he's already down!
