what a way to start the week

well, February started with a bang. John calls at 12:30AM Monday morning complaining that it hurts severely to breathe. Carol and Hannah spent all night with him at ER while they pump him with pain and anti-anxiety meds, 2 bags of fluids, draw 6 vials of blood, and finally determine that due to sinus infection antibiotic, plus overexertion playing Sunday afternoon, he had some muscle damage. He was discharged at 7am with vicodin script and finally Carol gets to go home and sleep. On my way to office, and corner of Douglas Rd and Jones Bridge Rd, I see an SUV turn left in front of sedan and get flipped. "Missed me by that much" as it went past. mom and daughter in sedan, 1 man in suv. I had already gien 911 operator the sedan details, and when I told 911 op that the SUV driver was alone in SUV and was out, no major injuries and talking with us, she brilliantly asked if he was breathing. You just have got to love call center scripts. Carol joked my guardian angel probably wet his pants. I know I nearly did. no one hurt. so, due to these, plus the normal crazy of our weekends, we had a nap and decided couch to 5k can be Tu Th Sat this week.
