From The Past: April 27, 2004

We took Ashley to the doctor last night and she has a sinus infection. The doctor prescribed amoxicillin – the REAL stuff, not the generic substitute. I tell you what, it’s been a LONG time since I’ve seen and smelled the real deal. The generic stuff smells different and is orange. This medicine smells pretty good and is bright pink. I’m sure it tastes better to Ashley. She acts like it does! She was very sick last night, but this morning seemed better. She hasn’t been running a fever so I sent her on to school. After today there are only 18 days left. I keep reminding her of this. I would hate for her to miss any of the last few weeks.

*UPDATE*

Less than ten minutes after posting the above, Ashley’s school nurse called and said that she had puked all over the classroom and I needed to come and pick her up. I didn’t know that sinus infections caused to much stomach upset!
