1. Connor has strep. Again. Apparently the anitbiotics didn't work the 1st time and now he's on something stronger. That worries me. Plus he's missing 3 days of school this week and I'm worried about him getting behind with school work.
2. My car decided to act like a fool. The check engine light came on exactly 24 hours before I am supposed to drive to PP. It could be something small. Or it could be a big deal. The Subaru dealership will charge us $99 to find that out for us. Their generosity is overwhelming. I've been waiting 4 hours to find out something.
3. We were turned down by the Baltimore Co. Humane Society to adopt a cat. Connor is devastated. And I think I'm even more devastated. Its a long story that I won't get into here but they have deemed us unfit for pet ownership due to our vet records... basically lapsed rabies boosters for cats who NEVER went outside. Everyone else I've talked to thinks they are being insane and just about every other cat owner I know is also guilty of this. I'm not going to get into a rant about it but both of our cats were in good health and well treated. They were over 11 yrs and 13 yrs when they passed away approximately a year and a 1/2 apart. This is pretty much the straw that has broken the camel's back this week.

I know its childish and reactionary and very poor negative thinking but I really wish for once things could go smoothly. For a reasonable stretch. I could deal with these things individually if they didn't happen in the same 48 hour stretch. And on top of all the other stuff I have going on.
