Yes...you got it...Miss J has ANOTHER freakin ear infection. Seriously. She just got done with her antibiotics on Monday, and now Thursday she has another one. How can that humanly be possible. Especially when on the 26th, the ENT guy said her ears looked fine. But, I have to trust the doctor, right. I can look in there but I am not trained to know exactly what I am looking for. Thank goodness she is getting tubes on Monday. She will have had at least 3-days of antibiotic, so the infection should be down a bit so they can do the surgery, drain the ear...and prayerfully not have any more ear infections!!!
She did pop two eye teeth (thank you Emma's mommy for so gracefully letting me know they were "eye" and not "I" teeth...I joked with my husband and he just laughed...but I didn't know) and that was the main deal with the fever on Monday/Tuesday. Wednesday she seemed all cheery and not even tired...I, on the other hand have been pooped. Have not caught up on sleep from those long nights. But then again, have I caught up on sleep from the long nights while nursing Miss J when she was 2-months old? Nope...guess I will sleep when I am dead!!
I am a bit stressed about this weekend...and I know I shouldn't be, I should just let it go and whatever gets done gets done.
Our house is a mess...pigstye would be a better word. Piles, dog hair, filthy floor, don't even want to look in the toilet gross (not that bad...really)...but bad enough that I feel like it will take me (us) days to see the kitchen table again. The kicker...we are having family over on Sunday for birthdays, and we are volunteering at church on Sunday morning...so we only have Saturday. Yup...and I actually tried to schedule to get Miss J's 18 month pictures taken Saturday afternoon...but I honestly think I have to cancel that. With all that is going on (cleaning, ear infections, lack of sleep, surgery on Monday, lack of sleep...oh already said that one) I think I am going to have to pass and wait until next weekend. Which should be OK...right, she can be 18 months and a 1/2...right? There is no hard fast rule that says you have to take their pictures ON the day, right? Hope so...cause I think that is the only thing that will bring me some sainity.
I could do some cleaning tonight...but part of me thinks, in fact knows, that I will be exhausted and fall asleep on the couch at 8pm, right after Miss J goes down. Proably no dinner, just turn the tube on and zonk. Which would be OK, if I wasn't dreaming about digging myself out of the pig stye. Ugh...it will be OK.
So Monday is tubes day. First thing in the morning...should only take a couple hours and we will be back home. I will really look forward to an afternoon chilling with my daughter. House will be clean, so nothing that will need to be done....except download pictures from over month ago, charge and upload MP3s onto my MP3 player, make the online photo album that I purchased with my pampers gifts that grow points that I need to do in the next month or so or I lose the credit...oh, and I am sure I could come up with more. Is the job never done?
Oh...I will probably need to go up in the attic and take down my PG clothes that we just put up there a couple months ago (not that I was still wearing them a couple months ago...but I finally cleared my closet of the extra large and depressing sizes I didn't need any more)...just to turn around and be ready to get back in them. I don't need the stretchy stuff yet...just some of the larger stuff. I have only gained 4-lbs but my waist is a little thick and I think my butt has grown. Not to mention the ta-tas. DH loves them, actually, I love the fullness of them too, just wish they didn't hurt all the time. But I do need to pull those clothes down and possibly see if I need to buy anything new. I got a Carsons gift card for my birthday and would love to go shopping!! Oh, who doesn't, even if it is for PG clothes.
OK, enough complaining about how much I have to do and how much sleep I have not gotten...positive. I just had yoga and feel so rejuvinated, like I can do anything. So, this weekend should flow!! Right!! Please pray for the weekend and for Miss J's surgery on Monday. I could really use a lift!
Love ya'll...have a great weekend!!

I hope everything goes okay on Monday.
Awww, poor girl! Hopefully the tubes will get rid of those nasty ear infections! I hope everything goes well, let us know!!
I hope everything went okay with her surgery! I said a quick prayer that everything turned out just fine. Take care!
I hope everything went well with her surgery and no more ear infections!
I cannot believe she got another ear infection. I pray that it was cleared up enough by yesterday so that they were able to do her surgery! BTW - I really wasnt' trying to correct you, I honestly didn't even realize called them "I" teeth until I just went back and reread the post. But at least you said I did it gracefully :-) Let us know how Miss J is doing.
Yikes! Poor Miss J!! I hate that. I can definitely relate to being really stressed out about cleanliness of the house. I hope you are able to get it all done and feel good about everything again. Hang in there!
