Although it wasnt to really do anything fun, it’s been nice getting out without the kids this week.  Tuesday was an ob appt, yesterday was regular dr appt, and today I went to the grocery store alone since my mom stopped by for a bit before going to lunch w/ a friend.  seems like all of my friends/family have had their spouses home the majority of this week.  It has sucked since Dean has had to work so I’ve been all alone while they are all out having fun or at least getting a break. then I realized I should at least be grateful I didnt have to drag the kids to the dr or the store today.  I just wish I could have Dean home more often.  It wouldnt be so bad(if my back wasnt killing me), and in reality this week has gone much better than I thought when I was wondering how I’d keep caleb busy all day but he’s doing so much better at finding things to do and all the new toys helps.   we just made cookies while Bo napped, and while the cookies baked he pretended to make cookies in another bowl w/ a little bit of sugar and m&m’s in it. He got out the measuring cups that we hadnt used and pretended to be baking. it was cute, messy in the end but cute!  I mean it’s not like he didnt help make the real cookies but I guess he wasnt ready to be done yet!
As we figured I called our health insurance company and every physical therapy visit will cost us a $25 copay, not a big suprise as I have to pay copays for ultrasounds and xrays now as well.   We cant afford to do that especially this upcoming month.   So I dont know what to do. I might call my pcp back and see if they’ll order the dumb xray so we’d at least no what if anything is wrong. My biggest fear of course is that that is related to the ms symptoms and just another new symptom of that.  that’s the worst case scenario I know. well gotta grab some cookies from the oven. we’re having company tonight and unfortunately my back is already worse than it usually is this early in the day so I’m not hopeful of being a good or even social host. we’ll see i guess…………i’m so glad it’s friday!
