Alice thru the Looking Glass

Friday was an interesting day in Dobby Land. First there was Lauren's student of the month breakfast (she was awarded it for cooperation, oh the irony). We were giving the boys jelly beans and doughnuts to keep them calm during the proceedings. From there we headed to one of my 2 doctors appointments. Will got called into work so he dropped me off and took the boys in with him. No US Navy equipment was destroyed during this visit. Senior Chief took a liking to Aiden and was giving him a tour followed by cake and was kind enough to bring Fletcher back a piece as well. Doc F decided that I am not improving enough on the current dosage of meds that make my head spin like I spent a weekend at a Frat Party (also makes me weave and tilt like a ride in an amusement park, both of which make me want to blow chunks) so he doubled it. No that is not a typo, he DOUBLED my meds. It gets better. I am doubling them again next week. So still can't go back to work, still can't drive, and now can't stand without feeling like a disco ball.

Appointment number 2 was the annual torture of blood work, pap, breast exam, and the lectures of drinking more water, exercise (apparently he doesn't read the chart before the exam) and all that fun.

Came home and played outside with the kids and some how a water fight ensued. Then it became a neighborhood water fight. After we were all dried we went bowling with our adopted siblings and had a blast. Apparently playing I-Spy in VB, you can only spy trees (this according to Will and Garrett).

Saturday was spent cleaning and running errands (I found a pasta press for $30, yeah home made ravioli, yummy) and Will and I challenging Aileen to High School Musical Karaoke. She kicked our butts.

Today was spent in rest for me as the meds are not making life off the couch or out of bed easy. The tremors are still here but the locking up has decreased. Today it is just my hip.

This week brings more appointments and we start to find out if Fletcher has behavioral issues. Wish us luck, say a prayer, what ever you do. But we should could use it now.
