Out and about 16 Feb 2008


Not a whole lot happened this past few weeks. My daughter did get an ear infection Sat. morning at 2:00. Figures, so she was up I was up so we went in to the ER to get her taken care of. Yes, that does seem kinda of silly to go in to the ER for an ear ache; however, lessons from the past have shown that she would of been fine all day Sat. and then after a few hours of sleep she would have woken up again and that would be two nights of not getting sleep, so to avoid that struggle I took her in. When we got to the ER there was really no one there and so we got seen in no time. My daughter fought with everything the DR wanted her to do, such as weight, temp, which she almost had to get it done up the back side, but when she realized what was about to happen she opened her mouth willingly. That was kinda funny. Anyhow, Doc said it was an ear infection and she was going to get a hand writen script for some meds. What seemed like forever for the nurse to bring me the scripts, come to find out the wrong name was on the script, they put fredrick as her name. So, I had to send it back. We got home about 6:00 a.m. and it was a long rest of the weekend trying to play catch up with sleep. Anyways other then that this week has been quite.

Ok, if there is one thing I take away from working in the pharmacy is to double check hand writen scripts to make sure all the information is correct, from: name (very important cause we wouldn't fill it if then name was wrong) drug, make sure the drug is the one the doc said they were going to give you. Instructions, are clear and readable, Last but just as important make sure the script is sighned by the doc. No pharmacy is going to fill a script that does not have these things filled out. I am so glad that I knew this because had I not I would have gone to the pharmacy and they would have turned me away, and then I would have been mad. Anyways, off my soap box.

Here is some pictures of one of our adventures. There is a park that is not to far from the base were we can do some hiking. Commanchee park is a cool place to go with the kids, because it has different levels. The kids love the most difficult trails cause they get to rock climb. Anyways here you go enjoy.


some tower that we have no idea why it is there

Hey it is amazing what can happen in a few hours! I was sure you guys were home free last night. I guess that might have something to do with why she went to bed so easily last night. Man have we had those nights before. Here's to a better night and a speddy recover for that baby girl!

I think the tower was built to fight off the invading Puerto Ricans!!
