Well what we thought was confirmed. C.J. is sick. The good thing about it is that her doctor told us to come in to his office so he could see what the deal was, instead of toughing out the weekend and coming to him on Monday. I, for one, was very happy about this because you never want to see your baby sick. I will have you know that my baby has been a trooper through this all. Her appetite is not where it usually is, but she is still the happiest baby you will find on the face of the earth. C.J. is still all smiles despite feeling pretty bad.
Today was the first day my plans were altered due to my baby but you live and get over it. One thing I really hate is when people do not keep commitments. Until today I never understood it. I felt really bad about having to cancel but my family is my first priority in life and duty called.
Now to the things that really upset me today. After we left the doctor's office we had to go fill a prescription. Part of the prescription called for some machinery. Now I go to work every day. Last year I was forced to pay a part of my insurance plan and this year I had to take furlough days by force, so of course that means money out of my check, all in the name of politics. I am taking one for the State of New Jersey. So when I go to the pharmacy and the pharmacist tell me that the insurance company is not going to cover my sick child's stuff you know I was fuming. I work hard every day and this is the thanks I get. All I ever think about is how we bend over backwards for those who do not work and we who do get kicked in the behind daily.
Thank God for family though because we have what we need and did not have to fatten the pockets of some big time company to get it. C.J. will be fine, and Daddy will be OK for now, until Horizon gives him another reason to get ugly with them. I am sure they will.
We had to inform the babysitter that C.J. would not be coming this week. I wish the stupid girl who sent her sick son last week could read this. We are keeping her home so the other kid does not get sick as well. It is what you are suppose to do as a parent, young lady. Now because of her I have to take days off of work but I will because I am a RESPONSIBLE parent.
So C.J. is resting a lot more comfortably tonight. She will be back to her normal self in no time. Just in time for her week with Daddy. Now that she will be in recovery mode, we will need to scale back some of what we were going to do, but we will have fun nonetheless. We have a GIANTS picture to take that I have been looking forward to for a while now.
So as I go, you all remember to pray because prayer changes things.
