Things are looking up!

Hubs went back to see the doc yesterday, (it meant he had to leave work early but who is he to complain)!! *L*

He was given 'long-term' meds to help make him better and some percocet for the pain. He took two of those straightaway and was happy not to be feeling any pain for the first time in nearly a month!
His other meds should kick in in a day or so and, hopefully, it won't be long til I have my daft bugger back again - it's been too bloody long!

The lil man slept all night last night, (which might or might not have had anything to do with the dose of Motrin I gave him before bed) and we both had a lie-in til 9 this morning which would have been more beneficial if I hadn't have been waiting up til after 2am to see if there would be a repeat of previous nights! Still, I'm not complaining but Hubs better get back to sleeping in our bed again soon cos this staying up too late malarky is becoming a bad habit!

Here's hoping that both my 'boys' are totally sorted now and we can get on with all the stuff that needs doing to move.

As predicted...


...2 o' clock came and the lil guy woke!

I'm not totally certain what the deal is with this - whether it really is teething or not but he didn't require any Tylenol to help get him back to sleep, (mind you, he did get a dose when he was in the bath but I'm sure it would've worn off by now - that was well over 4 hours ago)!

Still, he's now laying on his back in the starfish position, head down towards the end of the bed, on top of the covers and, he's asleep!!! *L*


Must be my turn to finally get some kip now.

Tomorrow...


...I'm dragging the Hubster off to the docs again.

After having the day off on Monday he was feeling better today, well, he was up until this evening.

Two biggy painkillers later and he's still feeling the pain - time to re-evaluate.

To top it off the poor guy only stumbled into the ladder of the bunkbed in the dark and stubbed his toe, bigtime!!! It didn't take his mind off the other pain - just added to it.

At that point, he was definitely not having a good day!

Thankfully he's kipping now and so is the lil man who, for the past few nights, has been waking up, just like clockwork, at around 2am, (hence the reason why I'm up so late, just waiting for the inevitable)!

We think he's teething - again!!!!! I guess 12 teeth just aren't enough for him and he wants the full set already!

Just when he starts settling into a routine of sorts and starts sleeping through the night, his teeth decide to pop through in a painfully slow, drawn-out process.

I guess I shouldn't complain too much - he's never been ill in his life so I've not had to cope with croup or ear infections or stomach upsets.

Full-on exposure to germs must be behind it, (we're talking here about the lil guy who enjoys a good gnaw on a shopping cart while I'm perusing the goods at the store) plus there's every possibility that my superhuman immune system might've been passed onto him too! *L*

That's my boy!!!

I've not been posting on here these past few days cos I've either been tired, busy or both.

I just don't know where my days have gone!

The lil man's not been sleeping so well for a few nights which means I've not either. Hubs is still kipping downstairs but he is getting better, slowly. His rash is fading but he still has bouts of pain along the nerve which was affected. I had to get the poor guy some more prescription painkillers on Monday, (actually had no hassle whatsoever this time when I phoned the doc's)!

These painkillers are so strong that he let me drive his truck back from having had our evening cuppa last night cos he was feeling out of it!

As I was driving us back I could see the flashing lights of an ambulance coming up behind us, speeding in our direction. When I first tried to move across to the other lane the knob who was in that lane but just behind us tried to speed up and stop me moving over but then he must've spotted the lights too and deigned to let me in.



I was so angry at him that I could've gotten out and given him a mouthful - tosser!

To top my evening off I only went and let go of one end of a necklace I was halfway through making and all the beads fell on the floor! Pillock! They were seed beads too - the smallest and most fiddly ones to thread!!

***sigh***

Just thought I'd add...




YAY!!!!!!!!!!

Guess he'd best start going to work then! LOL

Yes, he's had yet another day off though he did intend to go when he first got up this morning - even got as far as driving some of the way there before he hit a major traffic snarl-up and decided that enough was enough, (plus he had a long meeting scheduled for today which he didn't think he could sit through given that he is still in some pain)!

So, when I got up this morning and discovered a fresh pot of hot coffee sitting in the kitchen I was, to say the least, a lil confused as I distinctly remembered him kissing me 'n' the lil man goodbye before he set off for work, (though I was, admittedly, mostly asleep at that point)!

Anyway, the poor guy's napping on the couch right now and the lil man's crashed out on the floor of his playpen, (for the third time in two days).

I had to go out and get the Hubs some prescription painkillers this afternoon - two days after phoning the doc's to ask for them, (and what a bloody farce that was - twice I phoned up and specifically ask for painkillers and the dumbarses phoned up at lunchtime today and asked Hubs if it was more of his medicine he was after!! WTF is up with that?!!! Don't they understand bloody English??! ***insert extremely pissed off smiley here*** )!

The poor man was in absolute agony and they just fannied about before getting back to us!
If the lil guy had been asleep the afternoon of the day that I had phoned I woulda gone over there and sorted them out myself but I couldn't take him with me and be fully pissed off in front of him nor could I leave him with the Hubster in such a state.

Arseholes! They're about as much use as a chocolate teapot!!!!
