halp?
Urgent please to my Facebook friends: Jeff and I are planning to have Lola baptised up in Three Lakes next week (while almost everyone on both sides of our family are there). The churches we've contacted all require us to be members and/or have gone through their classes ( a rant for another day, why does organized religion make this so hard??). Anyhoo, we're looking for a simple yet meaningful service that acknowledges Lola on the planet and those that have agreed to take care of her should anything happen to me and Jeff. If anyone has any leads I'd be forever grateful. Thanks!

Pediatric whatnot
So...I take Lola in for her 4 y/o check-up a couple weeks ago. She's fine (I categorically refute "she's on track to being overweight" - what is wrong with doctors these days?) but I did ask about the health of her nails and nailbeds. Her nails seem thicker, bumpy almost.
The Dr. checked, noticed what I did but thought they were fine. Then the same Dr. called back this week, she wants to re-check based on her research.
So she and one other MD poked Lola's fingers, did a pulse-ox (which was fine) and are referring us to a pediatric pulmonologist. Something to do with oxygen, lungs, but she's most likely fine, we just want to rule out Cystic Fibrosis or other genetic issues.
So...yah. Can't make the appt until the referral is processed, so yet more 'here's slightly off-putting news that you can't do anything with" nonsense.
Fun. Oh, and the krazees came home last night and...actually, I don't want to talk about it. Suffice to say others in the house EXERCISING with LOLA at 1am and PASSING OUT ON THE BATHROOM FLOOR are not the activities that lead to a restful night prior to an early seminar. At least, not for this loser.
Out.

Don't try this at home
So, if you're ready for a fresh level of hell, attempt to (simultaneously):
Plan your 4 year-old's birthday party
Plan your cross-country trip to be there when your oldest daughter gives birth
Build up your PR business
Get clients to, y'know, pay you
Organize an impossible networking event
Make that 2
Wait, 3
Not spazz out about your karaoke company (and the accompanying karaoke contest finals TONIGHT)
Keep track of all your damn kids
Not posted:
work out
eat well
I'm just one person, after all.
