Double Ear Infection!
Well there we go! The reason for my daughter's random fever, extreme clingyness, outbursts, incessant crying...
I finally took her in yesterday to CareNow as I couldn't wait anymore to take her to the pediatrician.
She has a double ear infection. Her left ear(I think it was the left one) was so bad, the eardrum was close to bursting. Poor little thing.
I had taken her in last Monday because I thought she had one, but he said no. So either she did have the beginning of one and he didn't catch it, or she just developed one really quickly, really severely.
No matter what, she is now on antibiotics and already woke up feeling better, with NO fever!
Yeah!
Oh, but the mass craziness of my weekend doesn't stop there.
We get home from the doctor's on Sunday and half the house doesn't have electricity. That is the kitchen, guestbathroom, dining room and living room.
The only rooms with electricity are the bedrooms and my bathroom.
It's a breaker box issue, so Jon went to Home Depot and got some new breakers, but still nothing.
So we had no electricity all night. I just kept Lyric in my room and we watched movies. Jon was frustrated with everything and left and he and Spencer went to a late movie last night.
So ya.
Oh and to top it all off, the 10 loads of laundry that I did on Saturday are piled up in the kitchen, unfolded.
My house still didn't get cleaned, just picked up.
I'm cramping.
And I just wish I could be home getting stuff that needs to be done, done and taking care of Lyric.
I just feel like crying.
I'm just so tired and worn out, yet I still have so much to do...
I'm just overwhelmed.

I'm so sorry! I know you must feel so overwhelmed! Seriously...I love to fold laundry (ask your sister!)! Aaron is going to the Shull's tonight, and if you'd like, I'll bring Saeler over and we can have a folding party! I'm totally serious, so you'd better take me up on it! :)

I would check with your pediatrician to make sure she doesn't need to get tubes in her ears. Those ear infections are nasty and may reoccur with frequency.
