Still No Pills

They said I'd have them today. Now, they say tomorrow. Pray, for the pain triggering a release of adrenaline or rendering me unconscious soon.

I thought I'd get up and feed the kids and then high tail it to the craft store while Mike did yard work, but that is a plan for a low pain level Saturday. Not today. I supervised breakfast and vegged out in front of the TV. I hate when pain kills my productive plans. We watched Dora's Halloween Specials (both of them) and the Disney headless horseman movie. I got the kids to clean the living room and offered them Halloween movies as a reward.

After Riley's nap we headed down to our reception venue to take measurements and have a general pow wow with our florist. It was as good as Disney World as far as my kids were concerned. Big empty rooms are better than playgrounds. They ran around laughing for most of the hour and a half we were there. They army crawled across the carpet to the "oasis" of the dance floor. Riley danced and danced.

Isaac kept hiding behind the lone pillar and jumping out to scare Riley it worked every time. Much to her delight. She also really enjoyed the water fountain. They were terribly cute considering how late they ate lunch. I just kept one eye on them and scribbled measurements furiously from my wheelchair.

My mom had graciously volunteered to watch the kiddos so we could go to dinner. By the time we got home we were really tired so we got Taco Bell for everyone. We left Grandma with the kids and went to the bedroom to eat and watched Almost Famous. When we emerged Riley and been fed, bathed and put to bed. Isaac and Grandma were watching a special about giant squid. He was also fed and showered. It was amazing.

I just hope my prescription is ready tomorrow.
