So Jillian is on the mend. I think it's taking her a long time to heal up. I don't know just how sore she still is. Sometimes I don't know if she's just complaining for a little extra attention. So if that's the case, perhaps I'll just continue to give her the attention she needs. She now does have a green bruise under her left cheek/jawbone. It doesn't look too bad but it was surprising to see all the same.
Jacob got his contact lenses on Saturday afternoon. He was really excited about it but is having a really difficult time getting them in. He wore them yesterday but was unable to put them in this morning before school. He seemed terribly disappointed about it so I told him to come home at lunch time and try again. He did come home but once again was unable to put them in. I was watching him and could easily see where is problem was coming from. But he couldn't do it and was getting upset again so I put them in for him. For someone that doesn't wear contact lenses that was sort of difficult but I managed to get them in within a try or two with each eye. So I'm a "Super Mom" ... that's right ... just super, duper.
But for being such a great individual, I sure had a headache all freaking day. I woke up with it and it wouldn't go away. Once I got Jacob off to school I went back to bed after taking a couple Advil. I slept a couple more hours but it didn't help. Around noon I took a couple Aleve tablets ... still nothing. While getting ready for work I was saying to Jillian that I didn't know how I was going to handle the switchboard with my brain aching as it was. She went upstairs and gave me one of her painkillers prescribed to her by her oral surgeon. I wasn't going to take it but today just before 5:00pm I did take it. It's now 6:30pm and I do feel like it is working a bit. Not 100% yet but at least I don't feel like I have brains dripping out from behind my left eye. That's good.
