I've officially turned a corner on my problem.
I went to a favorite boutique of mine yesterday. (Nothing cures the blues likes shopping). They had sent me a 20% coupon for my birthday. Even with the coupon, I could not buy one thing for under $100. Even a t-shirt.
Look, I don't care if the t-shirt is designed by Mandy Moore, a $100 t-shirt is insane. I put the coupon back in my purse and walked out. I'm sure I'll check back in at a later date and see if there is anything more reasonably priced or maybe buy something for a special occasion. But just to spend, even with a coupon, no way!
But I'm not in full recovery mode yet. I left there and went to Target to buy Michael more animals for his animal train. But I only spent $20. And how excited was I that Target had them on sale?
As far as the road to recovery from being sick., I'm going to make a doctors appointment today. My sore throat and cough kept me up all night last night. I just want the doctor to rule out strep. My guess is it's viral, but I'd like someone with a medical degree to tell me that. But, as moms, don't you sometimes feel like you got a medical degree? I always know when Michael is really sick and he isn't, and when he needs an antibiotic and doesn't. I'm starting to feel the same with myself.
Late addition: Yep viral. I'm glad I wasted an hour of my life and the $10 co-pay. I hate the whole, "it's viral, we can't do anything, hope you feel better" song and dance. I mean, I know it's viral, but don't you feel so much more reassured when your visits end with a prescription. It makes me feel like my visit was worth it and I'm on the way to getting better. I know antibiotics are over prescribed and all, I just want to know I can do something. I really am a control freak.
Recovery

$100.00 for a t-shirt is crazy, even I the crazy shopper have to agree!
I hope the doc gives you something to make you feel better. I know since becoming a mother I think I am a doctor at times, I self-diagnosis all the time. I just need that degree and I am good to go!

Alright darling I’m ready to give you a public health lecture about the prudent use of antibiotics. That TB-guy in Atlanta as a deadly drug-resistant strain because of the overuse of antibiotics.
And my sons were quarentined in the NICU ward when they were 10 days old because they acquired a skin-infection that was resistent to antibiotics.
So drink lots of tea with honey. I’m sending you electronic hugs.

I am with you about the overpriced t-shirt. Who needs it! But, how, oh, how you got out of Target having only spent 20 bucks is beyond me! I am in awe!!
Glad you are on the road to recovery.
