Going to Portland tomorrow
08/11/2008 05:15 p.m.

Meme has an apparent bladder infection along with the sinus infection the kids have had. Poor Meme!

So it's off to Portland by 6:30, breakfastless so she can get her fasting labs done, and we're in for a day, I have a feeling. She'll need antibiotics for the bladder infection for sure, and probably since her immune system is on the fritz anyway, another antibiotic for the sinus infection. And all the waiting when your insurance is a managed care (she has Kaiser Permanente).

And lots to do today to prepare since Portland is 90 miles away...get the oil changed and the tires rotated/checked. AND, Kate is leaving to go to Astoria tomorrow to visit with her older brother and his wife, in preparation for her going to live with them when the baby comes....she is going to be their live-in nanny. Which means (I'm just now realizing) that I won't be able to take her to the Greyhound station and say goodbye. Ack!!!

Well, I'd best get this show on the road. *taking a deep breath*

I am currently: rushed
Listening to: someone else taking a shower...rats!!!
