I confess WE are gonig to see her counselor in the morning to see what we can do. I confess she is really upset and has gone to take a nap. I hate when they try to solve problems on their own and they are met with a brick wall.

I confess that I AM interested in the culinary arts and I just ordered some candy molds online today. I ordered acorn, cornucopia, and a hollow turkey molds. I am going to use the first two to make pats of butter for Thanksgiving dinner. :-D

Originally Posted By LPFan22 I confess I've had an interesing week so far. Started with a sore throat that got worse fast thus leading me to the ER this morning as I could no longer take the pain from swallowing, yawning, talking, sneezing... normal everyday functions. I attempted to be seen in the ER last night. Waited 3 hours and decided to go home and try again in the morning. The waiting room was packed full of more urgent patients than myself. One being a little boy who attempted a backflip at the DLH pool and hit the cement before splashing into the water. I had a lovely conversation with his grandparents while he was getting his head stapled. Sadly it was their last day of vacation. I suppose it's better that it happened towards the end so it didn't ruin more of their time. So I stopped at Walgreens to pick up some Chloraseptic spray and liquid children's Benadryl hoping one or the other might help. Nope! I think I dozed for an hour or so last night. I confess I don't recall EVER having this kind of throat pain. It doesn't help that I'm one of those with low tolerance to pain of any kind. I knew hubby needed some sleep so I didn't wake him until 5:30am. This time I maybe had a 5 minute wait to be seen. The doctor took a look and told me my options. One, penicillin in pill form for 10 days or 2 shots right here right now (ugh!) for quicker relief. Did I mention my low threshhold for pain? I hate needles, I deal with anxiety and I'm sitting there trying to decide how much longer I want to go through this. I confess I opted for the shots. Only for some reason I processed that it would only be one. So I'm waiting and waiting... and waiting a little bit more. Heart beating a little fast, butterflies turning into bats, hubby holding my hand telling me to breathe, lol. Remember this is over one measly needle. I confess finally the nurse comes in and says "Here, drink this while I prepare the rest" and walks away. Um, hello? What exactly am I drinking here? I'm not taking something when I don't even know what it is. Turns out it was Tylenol with Codeine. Loved it, lol! I started feeling a little relaxed when the nurse returns with not one but two needles. Great! Hubby quickly starts in on the "breathe" reminder while the nurse instructs me to relax my arm. Clearly she can see I'm pretty nervous and she doesn't smile or speak more than one or two word commands. I confess... *SIGH* So I got the shot of penicillin in my right arm. I wasn't about to drop my trousers! It wasn't planned but I'm glad it worked out that way because I'm able to use the computer mouse comfortably. Priorities huh? Then, I confess, I braced myself for the second shot in the left arm. OWWWWWWWIE! It wasn't a huge deal but man it hurt like heck. It was steroids. Never experienced anything like that. I could feel the fluid working through my arm and it caused a string of painful and odd sensations. After having to lie there for 30 minutes to make sure there were no allergic reactions I was on my way to an egg mcmuffin breakfast. It took forever to eat. I do confess that a sore throat is the best weight loss tool. Oh well. At least I'm on the road to recovery. All this over a sore throat. Turns out I caught Pharyngitis (a viral and/or bacterial infection). So much fun! Hubby had this just over a couple of weeks ago too. No guessing where I got it is necessary, lol. His condition was a little worse though. He woke up one morning and couldn't breathe through his mouth. Turns out a taco shell scratched his uvula (the flappy thing in the back of the mouth) and triggered uvulitis, making it swell so big it started blocking his airway. So they know us very well in the ER now. All's well that ends well but I confess I can't wait for my throat and my left arm to stop hurting so much. I confess this is the longest confession I have ever made!

My final confession is that I'm going to finish this accounting degree after starting it 25 years ago.

YEAH, I got up to leave, since there was no way that was happening. He relented, and prescribed me 2 huge bottles of the pink bubblegum antibiotics, and I had to take 4 teaspoons every 4 hours. It was so gross, but I'd rather have that than tonsil drainage!!!
