TGIF!

What a week this has been. One word, pain. Pain is so draining, it steals all the joy out of life and leaves behind nothing but drudgery.

Luckily a wonderful friend of mine said enough is enough- call the pain doctor. Now, one would think that I would automatically do that, but when you can think because you hurt so bad, nothing comes automatically. So I did call the doctor, and they adjusted my pain medicine right away. Yesterday I picked it up, and I'm hoping and praying that today is a new day.

I've been dealing with Hunter being home. The doctor that was supposed to fax the orders to the school had a family emergency and the school is not happy since they can't set anything up without it. Not good. In the meantime, he has been hiding work, saying he was caught up all along not having done any of it, and the school let me in on the fact that he hasn't done anything. On top of that, his report card came, and he is failing science and english. So, if we don't get right on top of this he is going to fail 7th grade. GREAT. There is only one month of school left too. So today I have to get this crap sorted out.

This morning I take the boys in to have their blood tests done to see if their medication increases this week brought up the drug levels in their blood to a therapeutic level. Also, and most importantly to check Dakota's thyroid level which was totally messed up last week. If it's off again, off to the endocrinologist we go. Like we needed one.more.thing. So I'm praying it was just an off day for him last week and this week it's A-ok.

Today is supposed to be a beautiful day and I'm hoping to enjoy it and get some serious progress done on the Easter dress. It's coming right along and it's beautiful if I do say so myself. :) I'm looking forward to a fun and recharging family weekend. I feel like I haven't connected with the kids this week- I have just hurt too much to do much of anything.

Today is a new day though and a new slate.
