What I learned this weekend.

I learned not to wait until Saturday afternoon to refill Anders' prescriptions. It was the first refill and I did not realize that they would be so hard to come by. I went to CVS--No; Holzer--NO; and Walmart--No, but surprisingly I had the best service from the pharmacist there. She set me up with Nationwide Children's Hospital in Columbus. Meanwhile, I spent an hour waiting around for her to try to fill it and later to set me up in Columbus. Spending an hour in Walmart on a Saturday afternoon exposes one to a real rogue's gallery of characters. I bet the Athens area has more than one religious cult, not sure, just a hunch.
So I spent my Sunday morning and early afternoon en route and waiting at Children's for them to fill two of Anders' prescriptions. I have to say, CVS in particular did not inspire confidence. The pharmacist looked more like a Buffalo Wild Wings bartender than a pharmacist and he did not know how to pronounce diuril, which seems like it would be a given if you were a pharmacist.
Anders still has a rogue prescription that either Dr. Lepi transcribed incorrectly or Dr. Ted Thompson wrote incorrectly. Since Dr. Thompson can do no wrong in our family's eyes, I'm betting on the former. I hope to get a call from Holzer today about the Potassium Chloride.
I also learned this weekend that Anders exists on DaVinci sleep, about 20 minutes every three hours. He didn't really nap yesterday and slept for about 4 hours last night. I'm not sure if something is wrong, but I don't think so. He cries strongly and flails with much energy. Anders seems quite healthy. He finally exceeded his feeding target for the first time on Saturday so his appetite is good. He simply doesn't sleep.
He was sleeping on my chest this morning. I thought he was totally out, then I put him back. He woke up and started howling uncontrobably, which he is still doing. I'm learning how to function with a wailing baby in the background. I can't think very clearly, but I can get a few chores done. Also, until Anders decides to sleep a bit more, the blogging will suffer.
