I didn't eat until when?!

(me after one of the worst days with two sick kiddos) LOL!!!

7:30 pm! My first bite of food today wasn't until 7:30 pm! What a day! My poor Blainers ended up with a fever, a high fever of 103.4 yesterday afternoon. I tried everything to get it down, cool showers, medicine, cold rags on his forehead, and wrists....nothing was bringing it down.
So, after being up all night long with both boys- Brian took him in to see our pediatrician, where we seem to live these days between the two of them. Blaine has a bacterial infection which has moved to his ears and on top of that, a sinus issue that is draining through his eyes. My poor baby!

Needless to say, today was supposed to be my fun day of being pampered! After a months wait to get in to see my stylist, they call me @ 10:30 to try and cancel my appointment! My stylist had a double ear infection. Have I mentioned I am going on vacation Monday and my roots are showing by a good 2 inches?! OMG, I am freaking out at this point as I answer the phone with Leelyn in one arm, pump on the other............NO!!!!!!!! I think I really did shout into the phone at this point. I know better then to have my hair done by someone else but damn it, today was the day!

Brian ended up taking a lot longer @ the doctors then expected, so I rushed to the nail shop to get my pedi. and that was a mess also! My toes got smudged and the lady doing my nails was in a hurry as they were very busy - but I wanted to scream at this point "STOP", I am paying "x" amount of money and I want to get what I am paying for! ARGH!
I rush home to pump a bottle for Brian, drop off the prescription for Blaine and hurry to the salon where little Mrs. Just Graduated from beauty school will be chopping away at my locks....Let me just state for the record, most of the time I am a very mellow person, but these days, time is money and both are short! Well folks, this is how I ended up looking:
The picture speaks for itself don't you think? No, I am NOT and I repeat NOT happy! WTH kinda cut is that?! $200.00 for that?! I should have said something, anything but I figured why, what is the use, I was just to tired to speak after 2.5 hrs of sitting I wanted out of that place and the fumes which gave me a horrible headache....Anyhoo, so I stop to pick up the prescription I dropped off earlier which ended up costing an arm and a leg, so I kindly asked the gentleman behind me if he could spare his that I simply needed to keep mine because I had two kids at home that would require me to use both arms and legs....but whatever! My counter top is worth millions to some:

It is now 8:30, Leelyn is crying as he does 24/7 if he isn't being held. Case and point:

Blaine is fussy and my hubby is at his limit spending an entire day with two kids, HA!
I still have a million and one things to do before Monday:
Pack, make the bed that Blaine had an accident on because dad forgot to put a pull-up on him before his nap.....OOPS!



Off to feed, bathe, and hopefully get a solid 4 hours of sleep tonight! Ciao

Well well well, that is a day! If it makes you feel any better, I think your hair looks great dear. You deserve a vacation after that day, and take full advantage of the grandparents. Love you.

You poor poor soul. The part about asking the man behind you for his arms and legs had me laughing so hard. I hope you get some rest and get everything done you need to do. Enjoy your trip, I look forward to hearing about it.
