I Need to Vent.
Posted: 03-20-07 12:08pm

Ugh so .Kaylee has been sick for 2 days now. She was up like every hour lastnight because her poor little nose was so stuffy. This morning I waited til 8am to call the doctors office to see if they could squeeze her in somewhere to check her out. The lady said they had an opening at 9:45am. Okay, no problem. I got around, got .Kaylee's stuff around, took everything down to the car then got her ready. I had to stop to get gas first & finally I get to the doc office. Keep in mind I asked the lady on the phone just to make sure, if they took .Kaylee's insurance. She said yes. We go into the office, I tell the lady sitting there that Kaylee is here for her appointment. Then I get started on filling the paperwork out (we switched doctors (or at least I was going too)) & she asks me if I have .Kaylee's insurace card with me. I got it for her & she went back to her paperwork. Then I hear her on the phone asking someone about the insurance. Then she calls me up & tells me they don't take that! I was soo ready to flip. I explained to her that I called this morning not even 2 hours ago & asked if our insurance was accepted & whoever I talked to told me it was & all she did was smile & say ".I'm sorry sweetie, I just talked to the main office & we don't accept this form of insurance."

Twisted Evil

.So then I get .Kaylee back in her snow suit & we leave. I stopped in the store where my mom works to tell her & she told me just to take .Kaylee straight to the emergency room. But she has a cold, it's not really an emergency, ya know!? Well there is another doc office here in town that is usually pretty good about taking us right in because they always have openings. So I stopped in there & wouldn't ya know it, they were completely booked. I felt like sitting on the sidewalk & just crying. My poor baby is sick & no one seems to wanna check her out. Then I finally gave up for the day & came home. I called her regular doctor (who is across town today) & made an appointment for tomorrow morning.

.I'm just in an all around awful mood today I guess. I have to work tonight 7:30pm-1:30am then every night this week except for .Saturday. I'm fine once I get to work, it's just the fight with myself to actually .G.O. I don't want to leave .Kaylee while she's sick. Shane will be here & she'll probably go to bed an hour or so after I leave anyways but still. I always give her her bath, read to her & put her to bed.. It's going to be so weird tonight getting home at 2am & she'll already be sleeping Crying
or Very sad .

.Aunt .Flo is due any day now which is only making everything worse. My diet has gone to hell. I'm still not drinking soda but .I've been eating junk again. Then .Shane made me feel like hell lastnight because he brought up that I ate some of his cookies. I know he didn't mean anything by it but it just made me feel horrible. It seems like everytime I plan on going to .Curves, something comes up & I don't end up being able to go. Like all the snow we got last week, I was planning on going that night & then we get a freakin blizzard. The this week I have to work all week otherwise my phone & internet is going to get shut off.

I hate feeling like this..

I'm so sorry, .michelle. I don't know what it is about bad days - when it's a really bad day, the bad just keeps coming. I'm sorry. Sad

.I would have lost my mind on that lady! Evil or
Very Mad .i'd be like "I brought my sick child here after I was told her insurance would be fine. She needs to be seen and now you're telling me I brought her out here for nothing??"

.they're so lucky you're not me. I would have cursed the room down.

Is she at all better, did she get worse, or is she about the same? Sad

Thanks guys Crying
or Very sad

.She seems to be feeling a little better now. She's still sniffly & I have to suck her nose out every now & then, not as often as I was. Only now her head feels a little warm but I just checked & she doesn't have a fever.. At least today she's playing & .I've had her laughing at me a few times. Oh & when she's "talking" it sounds like she's saying "Hoorah" lmao.. It's so funny. I hope this cold is gone soon..

awww poor little lamb! Sorry you had such a hard time with getting her in. i hate when people don't get that it takes a lot of work to get a baby fed, clean, happy, and then all packed up, and get her somewhere.
