sicky sicky sicky

For anyone who has EVER worked in the medical field will know this... but medical people make the WORSE patients.  Yepp. I hate being sick.  I'm grumpy and don't want to listen to the instructions.  I'm stubborn like that.

But seems there is a virus going round up here, mimicking the flu... but its all gastro.  Well guess what.  It started last night at work and today it hit full force.  So I ended up at the local urgent care up the street, they threatened me with an IV, however I promised to drink lots of fluids.  So got a medicine to settle my stomach and was told to go home and rest.

Ok so I came home, laid down, took the medicine and rested (as much as my kids would allow).  YES I drank water and tried to eat something (bad idea).  So water and ice it is.  I went ahead and was given a note to stay home today, and tomorrow if needed.  I do hope that tomorrow I do feel better to go to work.  If at all I'll just take my water bottle and just keep filling it up.  They want me to follow up with a primary, but however I do not have one up here (yea my bad).  So we'll see.  Frozen slush Gatorade and water for now.

Tuesday Natalie has an evalution then after, I have an appt.  After that I had set up a few apartment viewings and hope to find something soon.  I am looking for one that will accept animals.  I know my daughter does qualify for a service (therapy) pet.  So looking for something where it wont be too much of a problem.  That kid keeps changing her mind if she wants a dog or a cat.  But something that will allow her to focus on, and that is trained for the meltdowns.  I know a trained animal will be costly but we'll find a way.  I remember when we had pets when she was younger, she was able to focus.  She was able to focus on that animal, petting, stroking, and playing.  It had a way of calming her when she needed. 

Anyways I am done with the update.  Took another medicine and I'm getting exhausted now.  I'm trying to keep my stress down while being sick as well.  This is NOT fun
