By the time I woke up to go running, I knew I was in major bladder trouble. I went out anyway and ran a great four miles with my group. It was a beautiful morning and I felt really strong. When I got home, I decided that even though I had just finished my antibiotic TWO days ago, I needed to use a dip stick on my urine. The doctor had told me to use them if I even felt the slightest bit off. And this felt REALLY off. When I urinated in the cup, I was super shocked. It was dark brown! The dip stick lit up like a Christmas tree: infections, tons of blood, etc. I felt terrible! I called my doctor's office as soon as they opened. They had me come in for a shot of antibiotics and then they sent me home with some pills.
We went to a couple of Julia's games. She's doing great!
Katie and her girls came to town and we lounged around the pool with the kids for hours. It was really fun. The weather has been really mild. It was a sunshiny, leisurely day. I told Katie that every time we get out of the pool, it's always too soon for me. I could swim and play all day! Katie came with Greg and me to Julia's last game of the night. They easily won.
By the time I was getting the kids in to bed, I was feeling the exhausted effects of a long, full day, and a major infection. I got pretty frustrated. Nobody would go to sleep easily and I just wanted to climb into my bed and fall into a deep sleep. Emma had been out with friends (we are starting to argue a lot about bed times! Ugh!), and Owen (who usually goes to sleep really well) wouldn't stay in bed. I'm pretty sure I was just too tired to deal with it. But everything looks better in the morning. :)
