Thank God It’s The End Of The Week.   We had a nice evening at a friend’s Octoberfest.  Good brats, good German Potato Salad, Dark Beer, Warm Fire and lots of friends to talk to.  We were the only hs’ing family there once again but that’s ok, I don’t have to ‘pass the bean dip’ with this group.

Last evening after listening to Mark complain for the 5′th-day about stomach pains I asked if it hurt when he pushed on his stomach.  “Yes!” and he demonstrated how little pressure caused pain at the 6-level  (on a 1 t0 10 scale with 10 being the worst pain imagineable).   It hurt more when he moved around, he had a headache, he felt like he was going to vomit, he wanted to keep his legs bent, and please don’t ask me again to cough mom cause that makes my stomach really hurt.

I’m sure you know where this is headed.  Yea, I called the Dr, shared his symptoms and she advised we run him into ER.  There wasn’t any ‘we’ to this other than it was me driving, and the sicky asking why he couldn’t just go to bed.   Six hours later, that’s 3AM, we were back home knowing little more than before.

So after the pantry moths, Brutus’ ear infections,  my pc crashing(no, couldn’t write about that one since I had no connection),  the skate-mishap, a run to the ER, I was ready for a few beers tonight and ready to say so long to this week.  TGITEOTW!
