5 Minutes of Normal Please...
I would just like 5 minutes of normal.You would think that would be an easy thing.But for some unknown reason it eludes me.It seems as though things haven't been "normal" for a while now. "What things you ask?" Just normal everyday things. Here's a good example.A week ago my dad was admitted into the hospital.He was having some heart trouble and lung trouble.They admitted him to run tests.Normal right?Nope, took them four days to tell the man he had pnemonia!On said day that my dad gets admitted to the hospital Parker comes sick from school.He has fever,headache, and sore throat. Normal symptoms right? Nope Dr. says he has an infection in the part of the throat you usually don't see. Home with antibiotics. Two days later the husband says he thinks he has an ear infection.Normal to think when your having ear pain? Nope, double ear infection and the Dr. goes and gets the training Dr. so she can see how bad one ear is!! So Thurs. the husband tells me is going to bed for the rest of the night.So I'm left to get Parker to a basketball game and find something to do with the girls.Normal right?Nope, first time my son has had to go to a game without a parent present.Fast forward to Sat. after all the ice.I cleaned house all day and tried to occupy three kids.Everything was "normal" till that night when Lillian screams "the dog just threw up!" So after cleaning that up it was bath time and I put the two girls in the tub together to save time and save Momma.Normal right? Nope, Lola has had some stomach issues and those issues came out in the tub.So Lola is laughing as Lillian is screaming"Get it away" and scrambling to get out of the tub. And I did what was "normal", I laughed. Yes, I stood in the middle of the bathroom floor and laughed till I cried!!!Can I please have that 5 minutes of normal? I really need it now that Lillian is sick with fever, headache and sore throat.Normal right? I doubt it!
