Shew.....

I slept well last night and woke up at 5 a.m. I had a couple of hours to work on the workshop I'm presenting at Faithlift.

 Arielle, Jared and I headed for the clinic at 8:50am.  We checked in for Arielle's ortho appointment right on time. Then discovered she didn't have an ORTHODONTIST apt. My calendar said "opt"....I didn't have my reading glasses....and thought it said "ort".....

We headed for the basement for her apt. She made it in time. We had our day planned so we could finish Arielle's apt and head to Jared's apt.  WELL.....the optometrist wanted to talk to me, and  wanted to dilate Arielle's eyes because her eyes have gotten worse again in a short period of time.  I left her in the office dilating to check Jared in.  The Optometrist said we could do it that way as the apt was going to be 40 minutes longer than we were told.  I plan to research some eye exercises to slow down the progression of her visions demise. Anyone ever done anything like that?

They wouldn't let Jared see the doc alone (he did 3 months ago).  I had to stay with him while the 12 year old was alone at the previous apt.

We checked at dental. I wanted to SHOW them the note we had saying Jared has an appointment to have his wisdom teeth pulled. Nate had tried to change his Good Friday apt. for me and they insisted I'd not made the appointment and that he needed to see the oral surgeon for a consult before we could schedule the extraction. Um....we HAD the consult on 19 Feb. Turns out they scheduled ZANDER to have wisdom teeth pulled on 2 April instead of Jared. Zander.....they said, "Well, how old is he? Does he need them extracted?" He's EIGHT! SO....they straightened that out. ::snort::

We picked up Jared's meds. The pharmacist instructions don't match the written instructions the doc gave us. Not sure what to do about that. I decided to follow the docs instructions. When in doubt take the smallest dose. ::snort::  I'll take care of that and figuring out where to get Arielle's glasses tomorrow. Twyla, email me the name of that place you were happy with if you see this before I reach you.

It was a funny day at the base.

OH - went to get mail and couldn't get the box open. They watched me try six times. A really nice gentleman came and fixed it...oiled it, cleaned it and changed the combo as it won't work. LOL

We came home, switched out kids and headed for the base again.

I had a PWOC meeting. FUN to see some of  "the gals" quickly.

Arielle had drama.

Stacia, Nate, and I replenished the pantry in preparation for my next trip.

We all went to Vikings tonight for yakiniku. We sat Japanese style and enjoyed the meal. It was a treat to run into Kristin as I'll miss MOPS this month.

Well - that's the day. Tomorrow, we'll try to find something fun to do, I'll finish the laundry and repack.

Choosing Joy!
