Today's horoscope:
As your life becomes more complicated, you may be longing to get back to basics. Nevertheless, you are drawn into a complex and tangled web. You might want to complain, but you also realize you have to handle any situation -- even if it makes you crazy. Be determined and push your way through the intensity, and if necessary, make it up as you go along.
Right now, I'm taking things one step at a time. If I don't, I'm going to sink. At the very least, I'll start thinking too much about how life is going at the moment, and I'm trying to avoid that.
This morning I focused on getting Adia a pediatrician appointment.
After that, I focused on surviving until the appointment.
After that, I focused on getting through the initial part of the appointment.
After that, I focused on giving Adia a breathing treatment in the exam room while Francesca did her best to climb on things and fall.
After that, I focused on getting a treatment plan.
After that, I focused on driving to the pharmacy. (Although I made a wrong turn and decided to swing through Starbucks drive-thru. I literally had nothing but caffeine until Charles got home and made me drink water with dinner.)
After that, I focused on driving home.
After that, I focused on eating dinner.
After that, I focused on getting to school orientation. So much so that I didn't give Charles and Adia hugs or kisses goodbye. (Francesca came with.)
After that, I focused on driving to the pharmacy to pick up prescriptions.
After that, I focused on the idea of driving to Richmond tomorrow for Francesca's dentist appointment.
I had to backtrack and focus on school for tonight. I got school off to a fab start by not buying one of my labs for BIO and then forgetting to attach files to an email to my stats prof. A+!
Now I need to go try to fall asleep so I can drive to Richmond, then to the farm to pick up CSA goodies, and then to the coffee shop for breastfeeding cafe night.

Random
Francesca is going to the dentist I wanted her to go to next Tuesday. (She could've gone tomorrow were it not for the illness of doom.)
Her temp is around 103 at the moment, and A's is back below 100, I think. Looking to be another Motrin night. Also, a take-out night. I don't think I can safely set F down anywhere to cook without her falling over. (She's weeeeeeeak. In good spirits, but weak.)
School for the fall is going to suck, because the online speech class that I wanted to take is full. Also, there are no online history classes, and I can't take college chem because I would need middle-of-the-day childcare MWF. So it's looking like I get to drive to the nearest campus twice a week for Calc OR drive to the next nearest campus once a week for speech. What my other class is going to be, I have no idea...

The girls' grills
I'm so witty.
We took the girls to the dentist today.
The good news: Both girls sat pretty peacefully in the chair by themselves. Adia's teeth are perfect, no cavities. :)
The bad news: Francesca's front four teeth may have to come out. This dentist can't do it (take them out OR try to repair them), so she referred us to one that is about 2 hours away.
I think I'm going to try and get her an appointment with the second opinion dentist in Richmond from when we had Adia's teeth worked on. They didn't offer in-office sedation, but our dental insurance covers general anesthesia now. That makes things a little easier. Especially since I have a weird gut feeling about the in-office thing with Francesca. I didn't have it with Adia, and hers went fine, so I don't know where it's coming from. I just feel like I'd rather have her in a hospital than in an office.

Other fun from today were trips to the mall and Borders. Adia and Charles started The Secret Garden tonight. Francesca went to sleep in like 5 minutes. Still waiting on Adia.. unless Charles fell asleep reading to her. It was a looooonnnng night last night. Of course, Adia spent it alone from like 8:15 to 6:15, so that's progress there too! (Charles usually has to go in at least once.)
Tomorrow I get to spend the day doing the laundry that has been neglected between the meeting yesterday and the trip today. We may try to carve out a little trip to storytime, but it depends on how much sleep I get tonight.
