I'm trying to get everything organized and ready so I can leave on my trip to Africa next week, actually, ready or not I'm leaving. I've not been stressed because things just seem to be falling into place, that was until today when I went to pick up my prescription for the typhoid fever vaccine. Turns out Dillon's (and every other pharmacy in Hutch) does not keep the oral typhoid vaccine at the ready. It's rather expensive, expires quickly and isn't used often. I have my last series of shots tomorrow in Wichita so I'm hoping I will be able to find it there.
In other news, my daughter, Charlie, fell down a flight of stairs last night while carrying a television. She landed face down and the tv landed on her back, how that happened, I've no clue nor does she. Aunt Tam got her in to see the doctor today post-haste and it turns out she has some cracked ribs and is pretty bruised up. I think we're so lucky it wasn't any worse and thankfully Betsy and Callie are there to take care of her. It gave me an ache in the pit of my stomach thinking about leaving when she has so much to do before she and Rob move to Newton and now this. When I scheduled this trip last summer I knew I would miss getting Joe Henry off to some of his summer camps but I really had no idea what else would be happening in June. I know now that I will miss the move to Newton, family day at Westminster Woods (the camp Tedder is working at this summer), Father's Day (I have the gift wrapped and ready for Tad) and of course sip'n dip, just to name a few.
I know my kids will do just fine without me, I just don't like to miss an opportunity to help them or hang out with them. Blessed.........
