crazy crazy day

Ron woke me up this morning to tell me that wyatt needed me, so i head into the living room to find out whats up and he says that he is dizzy and his ear hurts. so i checked his temp and he had just a little one 101.7 and yes thats little for my boys they can fever with the best of them .. so i give him a bit of tylenol and have him rest while i try to call the doctors office to see what they suggest, its a saturday and they are only open until noon at the latest (really depends on how many kids they are seeing that day).. of course no answer *argh*
so i went ahead and got ready and than called around to a few different local urgent care type places and no luck there either.. i dont think it was till i called the 3rd number and got the message that they would be closed until tuesday that i remembered *oh yeah memorial day weekend*
so i tried one last urgent care type place and they were open, so i got wyatt ready and we headed out..
we waited forever, again its memorial day weekend and the kick off of the summer so everyone and their uncle is in town and seems to be showing up at the urgent care place because of some foot injury or whatever else brought them in. yes tourist you have to love them *rofl* oh the reason i say that is because its always a foot injury and most of the time they stepped on a shell and got cut ~
anyways we finally get back in a room and wait some more .. than after about 2 hours the doc comes in asks the normal questions and than takes a peak in wyatts ears..
the verdict ~
wyatt has a busted ear drum with tons of discharge behind it (left ear) and an ear infection in the right ear..
the solution ~
high powered medications .. penicillin 2 times a day and ear drops that need to go in both ears 2 times a day..
the cost ~
not sure about the urgent care bill just yet but the meds alone over $300.00 *crazy*
but at least my guy is on the road to getting to feel better soon. im going to call his doctors office on tuesday to see when they want him seen for a follow up.. plus to see if i can get a note to keep him out of school if need be. unfortunately the meds he is on (type of penicillin) will mess with his belly and i cant send him to school with an icky tummy thats for sure.

the weird part is we went through this with him last year, same problem same time of year *wonders*

even crazier is that wyatt didnt complain really to much of hurting ear pains until late last night / early this morning.. i swear that child has a pain tolerance from hell because this mama would have been in tears with an ear infection.. he still says his right ear doesnt hurt at all..

got home just in time to see ron walking out the door for work *pouts* but at least wyatt got seen..

was talking to ron a bit after he got to work and while i was standing outside to avoid being cut off (this house acts like a huge block for cellphone reception) i hear the neighbors playing with a dog (can hear the tags banging against each other) and i look over to see .. MY CLYDE.. omg im going to hang him by his big furry paw if he dont keep his butt in the yard!
we found a new escape route from the fence ..
needless to say we are getting that part blocked off now so that he cant escape from there any longer..
the neighbors were really nice about it, i kept apologizing for him getting out, apparently theyve got a new puppy and clyde went to play.. they kept saying that it was no big deal after all they know he is super friendly.. blah blah blah.. nice folks, sad they will be leaving soon after all its a no pet rental.. *eek*
not sure what their plans are to do with the puppy during the day but they did ask the wildabeast if occasionally he would walk her during the day for them and he said he would *put the big dog in the house and let her run the yard from time to time*
uh okay .. so why the little tissy fits when tootsie is here visiting??

ttc wise i should be in the 2ww now... waiting for FF to give me my cross.. but yeah .. should be in it now.. so its all wait and see from here..
hope that the hag stays away, im honestly getting really tired of *restarts*
