The weekend.

The weekend started off really good. Watched a movie Friday night. Went shopping for Dylan's Halloween costume Saturday. He decided on the blue Power Ranger this year. It was a toss up between that, the red Power Ranger or Bumble Bee from Transformers. It took forever to get his decision of course. LOL We had to get it kind of early because the Halloween camping weekend that we go to every year is in two weeks. So we were happy to get one before they were picked through. We tried to get one last weekend but Walmart didn't even have them out yet. We watched Michigan State kick butt, but had to watch University of Michigan lose. Sad state of affairs if I do say so myself. BUT......my spirits were GREATLY lifted when we watched Ohio State get pummeled!!! That really made my day! Sunday on the other hand wasn't so great. We had breakfast and then I was washing the dishes. All of a sudden I started coughing and was getting really congested. When I was breathing in I was wheezing really bad almost gasping for air. It was super humid from all the rain we were getting so I decided to go out to the car to sit in the air conditioning to see if that might help. It didn't. At this point I was starting to get scared! So I went in the house and said I needed to go to the doctor. So I wound up in the emergency room. Got there at 1:30 in the afternoon and left at 2 am. Talk about a long time!!! On the way to the hospital I took a couple Benedryl. That helped a little, but I was still breathing hard. But as I sat waiting to be seen the breathing got much better and I was ready to just leave. But they wanted to take a chest X-Ray and check my blood. Took forever to even get one vial of blood out of my arm. LOL I inherited veins like my Dad had. Very deep. The nurse had to wind up taking it out of the top of my hand. So they got the blood work back and some level of something was high, which indicated I may have a blood clot on my lung since I was having the breathing trouble. So they wanted to do a CT Scan to rule that out. Another two hours and I had that done. Another invasion on my arm because they had to put an IV in. OMG!!! Thank God there was no blood clot. So who the heck knows what I was allergic to. So basically I wasted all that time for nothing! Come to find out everything was taking double the time because the computers were down in the hospital and the other area hospital was closed down for some reason. What a day that was. Needless to say I didn't go to work today. Took a vacation day. I just wish I knew what caused such a reaction so I know not to do whatever I did again!!! It was sooooo scary. Dylan was a trooper through this whole thing too! He was there the whole time. Well, I am off to bed. Ta Ta!
