Target annoyances and other stuff

Because I shot up the last dose of Methotrexate on Tuesday, I refilled the prescription yesterday.  Well, the first time, they included the syringes with it.  Well, when I picked it up yesterday, I didn't check the bag at the store.  So when I got home and went to put the prescriptions away (I also refilled my folic acid Rx) there were no syringes.  I called the pharmacy and they said I didn't have a prescription for the syringes.  What?  How am I supposed to inject the medication without syringes?  So then they said I could buy them, but now I have to go back to Target.  UGHH!

My poor son is still not feeling well, but he insists he feels good enough to go to camp.  I believe him.  He is the essence of uncomplaining (at least when it comes to his health).  I know that if he complains, he feels sick, but if he doesn't, then he'll be ok.  He is very upset that tomorrow is the last day of camp.  I don't blame him.  I loved summer camp as a kid, and he's even more active and is even better suited for non-stop outdoor action than I ever was.

Yesterday was an odd day, bowel-wise.  I had a lot of D, but it was hard to get out.  So it was kind of like a constipated diarrhea.  Also had a LOT of pain.  But because I'm home alone with my son,  I didn't want to take a pain killer.  It made falling asleep last night difficult.  Then, I realized just how much my son talks in his sleep.  I just wish he said something I could understand.  Then it would make staying awake with him talking worth it.  I'd love to know what he dreams about.  I wonder if it is a girl, as yesterday, during a conversation about pretty and ugly, he named a specific girl as his definition of pretty.  He told me all the boys are in love with her, including him.  (ugly is a witch, by the way).

Fortunately, even with my son keeping me up all night, I slept most of yesterday afternoon.  I was so tired, and my legs have been hurting.  I'm not sure why, but it started shortly after I took my most recent dose of methotrexate.  I hope this isn't a side effect but instead is an odd coincidence.
