Last week was the week from hell.

To keep it short and sweet…

My oldest daughter was rushed to the ER on Monday and Tuesday. After two separate days of consulting with doctors and them doing test after test, they finally come to the conclusion that she was taking too much seizure medication and it was causing some really bad side effects.

They cut back her dosage and everything seems to be just fine now, other than she still has seizures but that’s a whole other story that will hopefully be fixed later this week.

Anyway….while we’re at the hospital one of these two days, I’m not sure which day it is, my husband and son leave the room where my daughter was to get a drink or make a phone call or something. A few minutes later a nurse popped her head around the door, looks at me for a split second then turns to my daughter and the following conversation took place:

Nurse: (to my daughter) "Where is your father?"

My daughter: "I don’t know"

Me: "He went down the hall for a minute…Did you need something?:

Nurse: "I have some information for him when he gets back."

Me: "Is it something I can help you with?"

Nurse: (smartass attitude ) "I need to speak to one of her parents, not an older sister."

Me: "Well I am her other parent"

Nurse: (stupid look on her face and snide comment)…"No you’re not"

Me: "Yes I am"

Nurse: (To my daughter)…"Is she really your mother?"

My daughter: (laughs) "Yes, she really is"

Nurse: (Face ten shades of red) "I’m sorry, I thought you were her older sister"

Me: "Well I’m not. What did you need?"

Nurse: "Tell him to call….umm…your mother…no his mother…yeah…his mother……your mother-in-law"

What the hell was so important and top secret about relaying that message that she couldn’t have told either my daughter or her ‘older sister’?

I really don’t know why this stupid little conversation has bugged the hell out of me all week but it has.

Don’t get me wrong…..I take the age compliments in stride and I am glad that I don’t look my age or even better, I’m glad I don’t look MORE than my age but there are times when it gets to be a pain in the ass.

The hospital and that nurse being one of those times.

She pissed me off when she didn’t believe me even after I told her who I was. She had to confirm it from my daughter. Then when I found out WHAT the message was, I was even more irritated by the whole thing. I didn’t realize returning a phone call had become top secret life threatening information.

Maybe I’m just looking for something to vent my frustration out on and that seems like a good place to do it for now.

I really have had my fill of stupid ass people though.

Tommorrow my oldest daughter graduates from high school.

This also happens to be my daddy's birthday, which I think is pretty cool since he isn't here to share in her day at least they will share the date itself. I know he would have been so proud of her.

 I will keep this very short or I will cry

 

 

No words that I could spit out of my mouth could ever say it better than this song

 

My Wish I hope the days come easy and the moments pass slow And each road leads you where you want to go And if you’re faced with the choice and you have to choose I hope you choose the one that means the most to you And if one door opens to another door closed I hope you keep on walkin’ ‘til you find the window If it’s cold outside, show the world the warmth of your smile But more than anything, more than anything Chorus My wish for you Is that this life becomes all that you want it to Your dreams stay big, your worries stay small You never need to carry more than you can hold And while you’re out there gettin’ where you’re gettin’ to I hope you know somebody loves you And wants the same things too Yeah, this is my wish I hope you never look back but you never forget All the ones who love you And the place you left I hope you always forgive and you never regret And you help somebody every chance you get Oh, you find God’s grace in every mistake And always give more than you take But more than anything, yeah more than anything This is my wish I hope you know somebody loves you May all your dreams stay big   Glitter Graphics from GlitterGeek.com

I pulled up my word program, intending on posting what’s been going on for the past few days but my mind was so jumbled that I couldn’t form any really good thoughts. Everytime I tried to put them down, they came out all wrong and I got frustrated. I closed up the word program and said, “screw it”.

Then I decided to surf the net for something/anything that would get my mind off of stuff so I decided to check my horoscope just for the hell of it.

Sagittarius

Today you might be feeling a powerful need to write down your thoughts, dear Sagittarius, but they might prove a bit too amorphous for you to put them into words. You might also have difficulty making contact with friends or loved ones - you may keep missing each other! Getting around in your near neighborhood could prove frustrating, as traffic is likely to be clogged. In spite of small irritations, however, this should be an enjoyable day. Hang in there!

 

The first thought I had was…”what the heck does ‘amorphous’ mean?” So, I looked it up.

a·mor·phous adj. 1. Lacking definite form; shapeless. 2. Of no particular type; anomalous. 3. Lacking organization; formless. 4. Lacking distinct crystalline structure.

So this definitely describes me today…at least my writing or lack thereof today. The rest I’m not so sure about but it’s still early

But hey...I did learn a new word

 

This was my Monday

 

This has been my Tuesday

 

And the rest of the week isn't looking any better

 

I want to know where my button is hiding....

I promise this is the last post of the day.

I will probably be back on the water again tomorrow so I am posting now for tomorrow night.

Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!!!
