Yesterday, Scott had oral surgery. They cut open his gums to take out wisdom teeth that were growing sideways and impacting his other molars. Since I can't take time off work yet, my grandma took him in. She called me when she got home and seemed surprised that I wasn't off work until 5. She said they'd try to deal with things there until then. I thought Scott had told her about that but there was nothing I could do. When I got there after work, I realized the problem. I had no idea her water was shut off all day because they were doing work on the sewer lines! The whole street in front of her place was ripped up. Scott had been throwing up when they got home and they couldn't even flush the toilet. I felt really bad about that.

I got Scott home and tried to get a handle on his medications. Gayle, you might know, can he take penecillin and ibuprofen at the same time? He's on both of those, and I know the ibuprofen is supposed to be 3 times stronger than regular. He also has oxycodone for if the pain gets too bad, but he just took one of those so far, before bed last night. The penecillin and ibuprofen are every 6 hours, and the schedule for the ibuprofen means he has to get up at 1 am. I wasn't sure yesterday about anything so he took the penecillin an hour and a half later and then had to get up at 2:30 in the morning again for that one. He has to take these for a week, and if he can take them both at once it would really help me sleep a little better! That alarm wakes us both.

Anyways, I made him some chicken broth to drink last night and made some Jell-O before bed so he can try to get some of that down today. I feel so bad for him!

It wasn't until I was going to bed that I remembered I have a bank meeting right after work today and I haven't had a chance to go over my finances to figure out what I need to change around. Oops! I have a job to get out today at work and tomorrow is my day off. I'm counting down the hours!
