Doctors

I origionally had just a WIC appointment this morning. But Yesterday my mom called me and said the Baby was running a fever and could hardly breathe. So I called the Dr's office and made an appointment for this morning.
I get the boys off to school and head out for the WIC apt. I got there at 8:20 and was done by 9:00. I have never gotten out of there in 40 min before. It has always taken about 1 1/2 to 2 hours! The Dr's apt was not until 11:40. So what do I do now?
I took Baby with me to the pier. We had a nice stroll and enjoyed watching the men casting their fishing lines and hooking big fish. We saw five dolphins and some huge fish. No pelicans though. It reminded me of the time when I was in high school.
A couple of friends and I were at the pier. I had two friends, Julie and Rachel, that were there that day. You see Julie and Rachel never got along. I was always in the middle. I had known Julie since 6th grade and Rachel since 8th. They were totally different, Julie was a redneck and Rachel was alternative. They both brought the best out of me!
On this particular day at the pier we were watching guys play volley ball and surfing. Julie and Rachel both wanted something to eat so they took off up to the snack bar and when I caught up with them an hour later they were laughing their heads off and having a grand ole' time. They ended up being called lavern and shirley as they walked on tippytoes counting the boards of the pier. They counted all of them. I really can't remember the exact number but it was like 1,326 or something. They even asked a fisherman for a knife so they could mark the 1,000th board!
The city has since replaced all the boards, so I can't see the 1,000th board but I know where it is. Three boards west of the first bench past the snack bar on the south side. I loved that day.
These days I don't talk to Julie at all. She was into drugs and she was living with me and not paying any rent. I was watching her little girl and she was not coming home till I was leaving for work in the mornngs. That was three years ago.
I talk to Rachel every once in a while. I try to send her birthday cards and stuff and she sends things sometimes. I really miss having good friends!
Ok back to today...After the pier I took Baby to Barnes and Noble. I tried reading to him but he wasn't having it. so we went downstairs and got a bagel. After that we headed for the Doctors office. I got there at 11:00. Turns out that Baby has a slight case of Bronccitis (sp?). The Dr gave me a prescription for an antibiotic and some cough medicine.
I then drive to moms house and drop off the Baby.
