Well this evening has been an experience. My sister-in-law and brother-in-law are staying in a hotel about an hour from our house to see some family. My sister-in-law is sick, and for reasons I apparently will never understand, my wife is the only one capable of getting her the care she needs. So we drove out to the hotel (we didn't have accurate directions to), assessed the situation and all drove to the CareNow.
I had Fiona with me, and the temperatures outside were dropping quickly so she and I had to wait in the truck. We waited about 2 hours and it was determined that she not only had the flu, but had a nasty bout of bronchitis to boot!

Now don't get me wrong I feel for her I do. It sucks being sick. I'm just not sure why my wife is the only individual capable of determining her need for a doctor visit, getting her to the doctor, filling the prescriptions and generally being the caretaker. Oh and we are currently waiting for the prescriptions (due to be ready in an hour and a half!). I love my sister-in-law I do, she's the only sister I've ever really had, but this escapade was entirely ridiculous. What would they have done if they had been in New Mexico and not an hour away? I am really glad she got taken care of and will start feeling better soon.
On the positive side it gave me the time to blog and we saw Les Miserables today. The movie was fantastic - I seriously think some emmys are in order for those performances. We were crying at the end, but laughed at how all the women in the audience were bawling and all the men kept getting up and down refilling snacks and taking bathroom breaks. I hope tomorrow I will have sometime to be creative and maybe get some stuff done around the house. I have a tickle in my throat, but I think it's from all the crazy sinus drainage. I just better not be getting sick - LOL!
