Anatomy of a Day

I get up and take the kids to co-op and wonder what I should do with the next two hours...I talk to another mom about life, not much about kids. When it is time to go, I know we need to go to the pharmacy to pick up some meds...I stop and talk to a girl about assignments and realize I should be addressing her mom and letting the kids talk to each other. We chat for a while and I head to the pharmacy. They are taking forever...I am at the pharmacy. When I am done I head toward home, unsure what time the doctor appointment is and concerned that we will not have time for lunch because one of the children thinks the appointment is in just under an hour...It's lunchtime and I am at home...I am at home and realize it is time to leave for the doctor so I start the drive into the city...It's almost 2:00 and I am driving to the doctor's office...I am at the doctor's office. He is relatively unconcerned meaning the current problem is not in his area of expertise but the previous blood work indicates that I will need regular visits to his office in the future. He asserts that I need to follow up with the other doctor and get that issue under control, intones that I will feel much better after the surgery. I leave the doctor...I am driving and go to the Goodwill...I am shopping; first at one Goodwill and I decide to head to another...I stop at the grocery store to pick something up to eat***I am at the checkout at Goodwill. I get to my car and realize it is a different store than before. I head towards home and remember that I need to stop at the grocery store...I am at a different grocery store, buying basics for the home like shampoo and toothpaste***I am driving home***I wake up and begin eating dinner...I am eating dinner and I don't feel well. One of the kids becomes worried and calls our T to be reassured that I am truly OK as I say I am. I talk to the T and together we calm the child down. After resting a bit, I decide to take a bath...I am soaking in the tub***I type this...I am typing this so I begin filling in the blanks that I can...I am typing this so I begin to fill in blanks where I can...I am typing this, wondering who represents green and who represents blue and what other blanks will even get filled in. My one child shows me a page in a stamp book. I don't remember buying the stamps...I am here, filling in the blanks. One of the kids needs me, unsure if they threw a fit today and therefore needs to go to bed at nine or if they can stay up until ten. I ask the child to review the time in question with me and together we decide that yes it was a fit. I am not very sure that this is the case, but the child seems satisfied so I trust the judgement. I feel dizzy and sit down to watch TV, but am uninterested in the shows available so I come back to this task, wishing I felt better...
