Double...how did things go today with DS?
Been a weird day. He slept a bit longer this am to make up for me waking him every hour last night so his numbers and schedule are off. I gave up at 5:30 and decided he was going to live if I let him sleep till 8. His numbers are mediocre today. We are going to get through the weekend and switch to a different night insulin on Monday. We'll have another all nighter to see how he reacts to it but it's one that's more stable and won't give us all these heartbreaking peaks that we have to react to. We hope. Funny as the second opinion doc recommended this yesterday so I ran it by the doc we've been using and they said it's a good idea. Well WTF, why didn't you tell me to do this earlier? Whatever. It's all good, I'm more confident after last night that we will figure things out as we go. If I can get through that mess, we can get through anything

And good news via email from docs office-his thyroid test came back better, no meds for him!!Thumbsup Clap Yahoo! Dance13

It was especially since DH could only do 2a and 3a since he had to go to work. But I'm a better person for it. Nothing like your kids life on the line to keep you going. Literally he was double dosed, he would have gone into seizures or worse in the middle of the night and we wouldn't have known about it. We're lucky I caught the error in time.

I did get to nap an hour or so this morning. Kind of ruined my potential target run though, no motivation now that the pools are gone and I didn't get one! I do have to use up my 8/31's, maybe I'll go tomorrow or sunday night after DS sleeps. Hard to get motivated without a good GC deal or sale. Although totally thomas volume 6 is out and $2 less until sunday so I could go get that in Stormy's honor

I am home now, been home for an hour.

Kiddo is at school. Which military school? He attends St. John's Northwestern Military School. He is a senior this school year. Leadership training starts tomorrow.

My original plans were to get him settled at school and shop my way home. Nope can't happen, didn't happen. We arrived at the school 20 minutes late. Prescription wasn't in when we were on our way to school, my tooth is in pain and I was went to a consultation last Wednesday and the dentist didn't think a root canal would be a successful option for me.This pain definitely made a huge difference in my well being AT school and afterwards.

During our registration process, I am getting sicker and sicker. Temperature is going up, nauseous is present, I am in no mood to sign and answer questions. I want to lay down like now.

Two hours later, he is settled into his dorm room. I looked at Walmart and Target. I don't feel like stopping, need to get home. Drive down the interstate. CVS is calling my name. Alright I will go in. A nice table set up with lots of 75% items. Go back to car and get the correct coupons. Check out and am heading out to the car. No car keys. Yep, left them in the car.

Remember I am not feeling well, keys must be under those inserts I put on the passenger seat. I call AAA. I was told I have to wait 2 hours. While waiting I have the pharmacy call over my prescription from CVS that is closer to my home, to this one that is near his school. I pick it up and decide I will look for those hidden deals.I hand over my package with my newly prescriptions that want me to take them now! But, I am supposed to wait on the pain killers until later, they are supposed to put me to sleep.I get loads of batteries while I am shopping, AAA comes and I leave. I am now almost home. 20 minutes from my front door and I am tired and feeling miserable.

Light bulb goes off, I left my prescription at the store.

Good job! I now have no meds until after I get home from work tomorrow. Work to this CVS is 2 hours apart. A sad and long day. Sad because this is my baby away at school and he is so much looking forward to being a senior this year.

woot glad to hear that, I hope his blood sugar levels get stable for you soon as well hug

I had a great night. I spent last night and this morning planning runs - hit T, local grocery store, CVS, Wags and a Dollar General (first time there!).

I spent only about 26 dollars in cash at the stores... and made enough ECBS/RR/Rebates to zero that out Smilie Have to plan another run or 5 to Wags tomorrow as I have more coupon/RR deals to do laugh out loud Our big splurge of the night was 2 footlongs at subway - such a romantic date. Now he's playing Wow and I'm catching up on SD and all is peaceful and well... Cloud9

Had 90% savings at my grocery store Jawdrop A new best for me! Would have been even higher had they had the items I needed on Wed. when they double coupons laugh out loud

Ugh - I hate it when I do stuff like that. I hope you feel better and maybe you'll end up finding a super good deal when you go back to CVS to get your meds...

Oh how you remind me of my youthful carefree (and child-free) days... the days when I looked forward to watching a new SP episode on Wed nights. Now I'm in bed by 9:30 PM (oops, I'm running a few mins late tonight) and South Park has been replaced by Jack's Big Music Show. Don't get me wrong here because Jack, Mary, and Mel rock, but their "super swell sing-along" just isn't the same as Chef's chocolate salty balls

Can you tell I am pissed. The lady that was supposed to buy all my diapers today, flaked on me. I was counting on it for vacation $$$$$$

Now I am relisting them to hopefully make some money tonight

I have a massive headache and I waited 1/2 the day for her, so I am way behind on my packing too
Uhh.. that sucks vomit DH keeps listing stuff for sale at work and people keep saying they are coming to buy it we wait for hours sometimes they call and say they can't make it other just don't show up is pi$$es me off everytime. Just tonight someone was suppose to pick up a toddler bed called 5 mins before we were expecting her to say it will be Sunday b4 she can get it, it's a car bed it's huge, in piece and taking up my back porch so I can't do laundry Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

Cool Glad you finnally got some good news! Hope you get it all figured out really soon.

Does anyone know how long it takes to get the RR in the mail if you have to call the Catalina company because they dident print? They owe me $10 from the diaper deal I still havent got and tonight a $9 one did not print Mad all I get from the store manager is that they don't handle those and there is nothing she can do Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

Thanks for the kind words, ladies. Sorry for the whine! It was one of those mornings. I didn't even feel up to going shopping! EEK!

I've heard our bank won't even talk to you until you get to the point you can't afford your mortgage. They don't like people to be proactive about it. UGH. It will all work out; we'll be okay. I just have my moments when I worry HOW it will work out. But, this is a way I can justify my new coupon hobby... I'm trying to spend less at stores and save more in the bank to help protect us. We can't refinance without equity. Best we can hope for is to renegotiate the mortgage terms. when I get enough nerve up, I'll call.

doublesided... how tiring for you, to wake up every hour! I hope you can get the meds worked out.

kopenney... what a rough day! I hope the weekend is better.

was cutting coupons (I think I'm 3 weeks behind, sigh) and noticed this slogan on the John Morrell hot dogs:

A full inch longer than the competition.

my mind is totally in the gutter but I crack up laughing every time I see it.

Their "Bigger than the bun" slogan doesn't help either.

How did that happen Double? Has he been being double dosed all along? Thank God you caught it. Who prescribed a double dose for him, first doc or second opinion? How scary is that!

RAOK for today:

Free to good home
1 very cute Yorkie
1 very cute Chihuahua

Have 2 airline approved crates and will pay shipping. Will send coupons for dogfood. LMAO

Am thinking of sending them to DM since she loves rising early laugh out loud These buggers are so used to my early schedule that they WONT let me sleep in on the weekend. And of course, once I have let them out they come back in, curl up and snooze and I am wide awake. Annoyed They gang up on me. My DD has been staying w/ me while their house is being renovated, so as soon as that is done, the chihuahua will be moving out Bye

Another day of Rain here, which is fine by me as August is terribly hot in the South. The rain keeps it cooler. Well, since I'm up so early, I'm going to get my q's organized for the day and get out early.
