Even Dr's have those days

Anyone else out there have a 24 hour run like this?

Yesterday afternoon - Discover totally flat tire on my car at work
4:00 am - 30 minute visit with Reva
9:30 am - Call from daycare saying Reva got sick so we have to pick her up
11:00 am - Take car to shop; discover it can't be repaired and pay $100 for new tire
Noon to 8:00 - Reva gets sick approx. six times
5:00 - Jill, on the way to pick up child who's still at daycare is rear-ended (no injuries, but will require serious work on the van)

Nothing disastrous but one heck of a run of bad luck. Any of you messing with voodoo dolls by any chance?

Sounds like the depressing part of a country song. Good news is, though, that things should be looking up soon, as long as you hang in there. That's how many country songs work (at least the ones that get played on the radio in Philadelphia).

i think this would make an excellent "overcoming obstacles" chapter in your upcoming documentary.

cue voiceover for reva, in between bouts of being sick, with intermittent cuts to flat tire, car repair bill, and accident scene: "i've just sucked one year of your life away. i might one day go as high as five, but i really don't know what that would do to you, so let's just start with what we have. tell me, what did this do to you? and remember, this is for posterity so, be honest. how do you feel???"
