missing first week of school

p left this morning early for amsterdam for a conference. there is a subway strike (tis the season for french strikes), but he got to the train station ok.

poor jj has been sick for 4 days now. tummy problems and intense pain, fever and headaches. she's so sad that she's missing the first week of school. luckily, we had a dr appt set up for today for her school medical forms. she was well enough to make the trip. i was nervous about how i'd get her there, but i successfully called a taxi. it seems trivial, but just didn't know what the procedure was or what was the correct number to call. i used google maps to get some phone numbers. i just had to do it once, to be comfortable with the idea. anyway, the doc said it is just a bug that we needed to let play its course. even though it is still terrible, it helps to know that its not serious. i also am able to talk to my sister, the dr, for more advice. (skype and google phone are amazing!) Print this post
