just kidding but it has been a day!Wake up still feeling pretty bad with this cold and fighting with my son about getting up and going to school. He has missed so much already. Get home from taking him and husband needs somethings done for him because he is late and not well either. Then mom calls she needs some help. As that is wrapping up the school nurse calls. She has been "discussing" the not feeling well with my son. After much go around he is coming home, she does not agree with this. When home he shows me raw red skin and hived areas. This and he is jumpy and he says aching everywhere badly. Call the doctor, get a nurse who is thinking he should come in. By the time of the appointment he definitely looks like and is showing signs he should be seen. I am feeling guilty for the morning doubting. It turns out he is having an allergic reaction to his latest antibiotic. So it is off all the meds he is taking and switching to dealing with this for now. Get him back home and resting so I can pick up his new prescriptions. One problem is the medicine for the reaction is one that set off tremors last year so we are to watch him. Then it is call the therapist because he is not making his session today, I think that is understandable. No, he did not give twenty four hours notice for cancelation so it will be a 150 dollar charge. Gee, we forgot to plan this fun allergic reaction. What can you do? Just hate throwing way the money. Not to mention the money for the medicines that did not work, then the medicines that he reacted to and now more medicine. Just wish out of all this he was actually feeling well, poor guy. In that vein the school mentioned if he misses two more days he will be dropped from drivers ed. (he does not like that at all) and we will not get the 300 dollars back or credited for next semester. Once gain he has been sick, very sick not just blowing it off. Poor husband called, his day has been on the same track and will be late. With that there are a few more things to help out with. I'll be glad to see this day end. No gym or work out. No work done. Did not eat anything until 3:30, oh well.
Will come back later when things are all done and quiet. Determined to end this day on a positive note!

So sorry you are having a bad day:(. When it rains it pours. Hope it gets better.
I feel bad for your son and what he's going through. That has got to be rough. I hope he gets better asap and won't have to miss any more school. The money thing has got to be so frustrating.
I had to give up on worrying about wasting money. It was making me crazy. No matter how hard I try, something always comes up that bleeds me dry. I'm broke, but thankfully I have my family. They are the greatest gift.
I hope your day does end on a positive note.
Hey thanks for putting up with the venting! Family is the greatest gift. Think it was almost easier to drift to the money and frustrations than really let myself be scared about his situation at the time. It is harder with teens, you can not just scoop him up and cuddle it better like when they are little.
