What a day.... WHAT A FRICKIN DAY! Steph woke up early sneezing and coughing. And the other kids woke up same way. They've been that way for a while, so I decided to call the doctors. I couldn't get in until 420pm. Fine... Jeff can experience my world.

When he got home at 3pm, we had an early dinner.... Bob Evans... and I can proudly say I ate rabbit food. It was a chicken spinach salad. Jeff thought he could make it home, just grab leaves from the backyard, hahahaha. Oh well, it wasn't too bad. The kids were fairly good. Steph was up all afternoon. In the restaurant she was laughing and smiling. Then she fell asleep. Jess sat pretty nice, and ate a little. And then there's Jon... hhahaha... I'm glad he was on Jeff's side of the table.... I'll take both girls any day. He wasn't that bad, it wasn't too embarrassing. But he was loud at times. And wouldn't eat... but was infactuated with his straw (they gave the kids straws with their water). No biggie, we brought their food home and they ate it as a snack.

Then went to the doctor's appointment. Jess & Jon both have double ear infections and sore throat, and Steph has a sore throat. And all of them having been coughing and sneezing all day. So amoxicillian all around!!!! There's a story with that too. We dropped it off at Meijers on the way home. I went to work out, then pick it up. The little kids, had no problem, it's free. Jessica's... it wasn't amoxicillian, it was a step up from it, because she was just on it 3 weeks ago. So, you know with my lovely new insurance the problems I had. First off, we don't have our cards, just a piece of paper with our group number. That confused them. They called the number, and we aren't in the system. Duh, it just got acctivated. So, he said it would be $168. No big deal, we have to pay for our prescriptions anyhow, up to $2200. He said why don't I call HR in the morning and get the ID number they need. UGH!

The girl who loves medicine the most, wasn't going to get some this evening... that would be alot to deal with. So I called Jeff on the way home... he said why don't you just go to Walgreens and pick it up, she needs it, we'll just pay and figure it out later. Ok... I get there, there is no script there. The doctor forgot to call it in. She was suppose to call it into walgreens, but she also gave me a script incase I just decided to get all 3 at meijers. So, that pissed me off. I call Jeff again. He said go back to Miejers.... for the hell of it... see if our old prescription plan works... maybe it overlapped. And sure enough, it worked fine... 10 dollars later, I get home.... it's already time for them to go to bed, but they ALL got their meds. This was Steph's first time... she felt she needed to be on it, especially being around Jon & Jess. And her reaction... was a familiar Jonathan reaction. He HATES MEDS. Hahhaah. Oh well, maybe something got down her. Jon has gotten better at it, because he was on his reflux meds for a long time, but he really doesn't like them. Jessica on the other hand, begs for meds. And if Jon gets some and not her, she throws a fit. What a strange girl... who is just like me. And what a strange boy, who is just like Jeff. Oh well, who will Steph be like?

Anyhow... back to Bally's. I was on the elliptical, and a trainer came up to me. She said she'd give me 2 free training sessions. Of course I asked what the catch is... and she said nothing... but obviously she hopes that I will like her enough to continue. So think of me at 6pm tomorrow. I already told her, you better not kill me, so I won't come back. It just brought flash backs... when I first joined Bally's 5 years ago, I had a trainer... SHE KILLED ME... I was so unfit I couldn't even do the elliptical for 5 minutes... and she continued to KILL me for an hour. I could hardly walk or move for 2 WEEKS! You are not suppose to hurt that bad. After her, we got an AWESOME TRAINER. We loved him. He was the best. He trained me and Jeff together and just counted it as one session. He did great, we showed great outcomes... and then our sessions were over, and more sessions were so much money.... so we stopped going... it motivated us to go when there was a trainer we had to meet at a certain time, but getting off our butt otherwise... we just stopped going. Anyhow... here I am 5 years later, on a mission... a solo mission... but nonetheless a mission...... We'll see how motivating this trainer is tomorrow. At the very least... I'll get 2 sessions for free... and gain a lot of knowledge... and maybe as bday/christmas/mother's day, whatever... maybe I'll get more training sessions.... it is more motivating when someone is telling you what to do. They push you farther than you'd push yourself. So we shall see....

I'm exhausted... it's been quite a day... oh yeah... Jon's molar is FINALLY coming in... I seen it today.... so that's that........ tomorrow's school I'm glad she's been bugging me for many days, when can she go to school... Luckily she has no fever, and doesn't have a running nose like Jon... next day's picture day! So hopefully with meds in her... she'll be fine!
