Wow, I can’t believe I let so many days go by without a blog post. I’m disappointed because I was doing so good blogging as well. I had finally hit my stride and was getting back in the blogging groove of things. I guess I got thrown a curve ball by underestimating how hard my summer class was going to be and then my best friend stayed for two weeks here which was unexpected. I enjoyed her company but I believe I am the type of person that likes to be alone at times and having to constantly entertain someone was not fun. Also, on top of that, Grayson was here for a week since it was Father’s Day. I enjoyed having my baby here for a week. I love that little bugger.
Another thing causing my lack of blogging was after Grayson left our house, he was hospitalized a week later. He had a really bad infection and they thought it was staph at first. Thankfully it was just cellulitis but he had a place on his tummy and bottom that had to be lanced. Needless to say he was not happy sitting down. Also, in between his legs he had a lot of yeast and that was causing further problems and discomfort for the poor guy. After he was released from the hospital, his mom brought him down here to stay with us for the weekend. The day he got here had sores/hives all over his body but instead of taking him to the ER his mom said to give him Benadryl. Since obviously I’m just his step-mom I decided to give him the medicine but the next day it wasn’t better and was looking a little worse so I told Jonathan we were taking him to the hospital. We kept calling Michelle but she never answered until Jonathan text messaged her and said we were on our way to the hospital to which she promptly called back. At the hospital, I went back with her and was answering all the questions for the doctor. I even had to change him because evidently she didn’t want to. It really annoyed me because here is your child who is sick and not at his best and you don’t want to have to do nothing for him. It was really irritating but thankfully she sent him back home with us and after a day and a half of antibiotics he was already looking a lot better. Hopefully when he gets here on Friday he will look even better if she has given him his medicine properly.
I just wanted to post a quick update. I didn’t do so hot in my June session class thanks to everything going on and having a final when Grayson was in the hospital, but I’m hoping this July session class will go a lot smoother. I did so bad in June that I failed the class. I missed the last test and final which were on the same day. Honestly, I don’t care. Grayson was more important. I’m really falling into the whole role as a step-mom and love spending time with my little guy. He is a joy to be around and Jonathan and I are a lot closer now as well. I love both of my guys. All in all, I love my life and wouldn’t trade it for anything. So, I am going to go start my homework for my class since Jonathan went out to lunch with his cousin which means I have some quiet time if the siblings will stop barging into my room. Wow, I so can’t wait to move out which hopefully will be soon. So until next time, later loves!
