sorry no pictures this time. i didn't have the best day with my mama and i feel really bad about that. mama took me to the doctor this morning and my fever was around 101. my lungs sounded good, my ears and throat looked good. it looked like it was just a fever deal. well if it was just a fever deal, it turned into a massive deal. later in the afternoon, i got in a real bad mood and, believe it or not, at one point, my temperature hit 106. i know that sounds high but, remember, no thermometer is perfect. that being said, because i was so hot and feeling so bad, mama took me back to the doctor AGAIN. TWO visits in one day. my mama is a saint. this time, dr. o'mara (i love him) said my throat looked really red and they took some blood. the thought is that the infection, from the time i left the doctor's in the morning, got worse, caused my throat to redden and made my white blood cell count very high, which is not a good thing. so i guess i've got some sort of infection that is causing the fever, and i'm on yet ANOTHER antibiotic. when dada got home, he did his best to clean up the house a little bit and then fed me while mama got a much needed shower. i actually ate PRETTY good, not the best and after dinner got into PJs to rest. i rested with dada downstairs for a while and then mama took over so dada could water the lawn and hook up wireless in the house. i'm asleep with mama right now downstairs, under the ceiling fans (i know, how could i be asleep and posting at the same time, right? DON'T ASK QUESTIONS!) hopefully cooling off. i'm due for motrin again at midnight, hope dada can stay up that long, i have a feeling he'd do anything for me so i'm not worried about it.
the good news is that brady's mommy and daddy made the best decision EVER not coming over for dinner last night (thanks again for the chair and flowers, btw). they are such great people. i hope brady has a great trip to massachusetts.
i'm very confident that mama and dada will take great care of me all weekend. all i'm really looking forward to is this antibiotic kicking in and being able to watch the race tomorrow night (i love you, dada).
so, i hope everyone has a great weekend. i love and miss you all.
