Jasmulan ?

Current Notes: I'm slowly starting to like Diz Store dolls...

Last night was exciting, in an awful way. Shortly after dinner and finishing yesterday’s entry, Beloved Hubby was doubled over in pain. It ebbed shortly later, but he was in agony. Kidney stones. Some other symptoms had us both worried, so it didn’t take me long to convince him to go to the ER, just in case. He was right, as well as dehydrated, so he now has a referral to a specialist, and we picked up an inflammation prescription on the way home. I felt so bad for the pharmacist. Even though it was nearly midnight, there were two cars in the drive-through, a customer insisting she’d been shorted pills (a 90 day supply didn’t last a month, and he couldn’t find any ‘gave patient a X day supply, awaiting shipment of more’ note in her file), and us and another patient waiting. And it was just him. I would have wigged out in his place. At least we were quietly waiting, out of his way, munching on cashews and sipping ginger ale, as the chaos swirled around him.  

He slept in a bit, but went to work only about a half-hour late. He says he feels a lot better, but giving up soda is a challenge. I’m used to doing without it, have even developed a taste for ice water, especially with meals, so I’ll stop buying it again. Besides, the local grocer had sugar-free drink mixes on sale – the canister makes 3 gallons for 99c ! I bought about $20. worth, and they don’t expire ‘til October. Hope he likes lemonade and cherry as much as Dearest Son and I do !

Spent a good hour brushing and styling Jasmine’s hair. It wasn’t that big a mess, and it brushed and dried easily, but getting it in the movie style and reasonably matching on both sides was a challenge. In frustration, I looked at the packaged doll, trying to figure where I was messing up. Hmf. It was kinda lopsided in the photos, too. Instead, I got it to where I liked it, and happily redressed her. She looks good in Mulan’s clothes, too !
