Ugh!

My daughter JUST got to feeling good again when the tooth business hit.  She has a broken tooth that was bothering her, so she went to a dentist.  She was given Vicodin and antibiotics and told to come back next Tuesday to have the tooth pulled.  (It's a wisdom tooth.)  Meanwhile, during the night last night, pain developed, and she has been miserable and in tears all day.  At the same time, little Ryan came down with a fever, etc...so he stayed home from school.  Nathan took him to the doctor and waited well over two hours just to get him seen.  While there, Ryan threw up twice, but we don't know why because he doesn't act sick!  I was talking to Meg on the phone this evening when Robin came dashing into the house saying, "Ryan got hurt real bad!"  She was breathless and all excited.  Ryan got stung by a bee.  Robin saw the bee(s) and ran, but Ryan didn't.  More tears.  More anguish.  More of Mommy wishing that she didn't hurt so much so she could handle it all!  More of Grandma feeling bad because she can't do a single thing to help except listen on the phone!

Summer school is going well.  Almost done with the first week....then another week, then a week off.....then school starts for real.  I wish I could say that it was a productive summer for me, but it just wasn't...again.  I guess I need to get back to the routine just to save me from myself!
