Loopy Thursday!

The first order of business today was to take Jonathon to the doctor. I called promptly at 8am and the earliest appointment the doctor had was at 1020. At 11am we were out the door with a prescription in hand for an ear infection. On the way home we dropped off the prescription to be filled and came home to eat lunch. While we ate lunch I took the doctor's advice and gave Jonathon a little benedryl to see if it might help his cough since the doc said that his lungs sounded fine. I should have left it at just letting Jonathon take it but no I thought I would try it on myself as well! So today was Jonathon's day to bring the class snack! I have reminded myself and about a million other people of this fact over the past week. So I get him to school and let him walk in the building alone cause he's a big boy and doesn't need his Mama. (His words not mine) And as I'm pulling away I hear this very distinct DING go off in my head! SNACKS!!!!! I forgot to bring the snacks! So I rush home grab the snacks and dash back to school. (Good thing we live so close) And while I'm there I also take the time to remember to inform his teacher that I had just given him Benedryl so he may be tired and that he has an ear infection! Ok so Mikayla and I made it home and I sat down on the couch and started to knit. And during this time Todd calls. I try my best to talk with him but after about 15 minutes I tell him I have to give in and just crash. So I took a short little nap on the couch while Mikayla watched some cartoons. I woke up just before my alarm was to go off. I grabbed juice cups for both the kids and decided that I would take a cup of juice for me as well. My intentions were to go pick Jonathon up and then go to Walgreens to get his medicine. Well I remember the to pick him up and that was it! When we got home I grabbed my purse and my cup which still had a little juice in it ( a good sip and a half to be exact) and got out of the car. Mikayla needed a bit of help so I put my cup under my elbow to hold it so I could lift her out of the car. When I set her down I noticed for some reason her pants were around her knees so I bent over to help her pull them up! And SPLASH! Yep that's right folks I forgot about the juice and spilled it all over the garage floor! (3 moppings later floor is still sticky) And to top it off after the garage door had shut that's when I realized I hadn't gone to pick up the medicine! I started texting my friend Jamie and told her about my day and she gave me some wise advice. She simply said "If you have taken Benedryl you shouldn't be driving!" And boy was she right! So I've learned my lesson no Benedryl during the day for me! Who cares if my voice came back and my cough went away! I was completely LOOPY for about 7hrs. This afternoon I only took 1 pill! Imagine if I had taken 2! YIKES! So now that the Loopy pill is out of my system I took the kids to Walgreens and got Joanthon's medicine so he could take it before bed. With the house finally quiet and everyone in bed I think I'll take this time to catch up on the things I forgot today! Like bible study and some very light cleaning! :) I hope you all have a great night!
