Our House...

This is just how things go in our house:

Baby is not feeling good and feels very hot to the touch when he awakes in the middle of the night. I get up to find our handy digital ear thermometer. I finally find it only to realize that my dd had been playing with it and it now stuck on Celsius.  Which means nothing to me, right?

It only has 2 buttons and between those 2 buttons I can not figure out how to get it back to Fahrenheit! Very frustrating in the middle of the night.  I am so tired and annoyed that I am tempted to wake up my 7 year old daughter *just* to tell her not to play with the thermometer anymore.

My husband wakes up and I let him know the situation.  He suggests I just get on the laptop and look up the manual online.  Which is the same ridiculous thought I had earlier. Naturally I do this.  It requires resetting the router all the way in the living room, finding the power plug to the laptop that can't hold a charge and locating the laptop itself.

Reformatting the thermometer was simple. Good. I take baby's temperature and it reads 96 degrees! arg! I take mine to double check and mine is only 94 degrees! It obviously has issues. All that time spent was apparently useless! After all that I attempt to go back to sleep. {sigh}

Someday I will be organized and my home will be uncluttered.  A girl can dream, can't she?
