Immunizations....immunizations.....immunizations.
Last week was all about immunizations.
Required immunizations....
Optional immunizations...
And a couple "just for safe keeping" immunizations.
I am thinking that my husband is going to feel like a pin cushion before this is all said and done....but on the bright side, he is almost done. Two more left and he can put a big check beside the to-do list for immunizations (not that is a checker-offer on the to-do list kinda guy). But I am...so I'll do it for him - and oh will I do it for him gladly. Seriously, is there anything better than checking things off the infamous "to-do list"? As each item is checked, I can almost hear a choir singing "Hallelujah...hallelujah....hallelujah!"....but I digress. Where was I? Oh yes, immunizations.
So the immunizations step means we are one step closer to the day when we can leave for Africa.
And yes, I said we.
For we have decided that we are both going to go...because it's not every day that you meet your son for the first time. Of course, you know what this means....it is going to be my turn for immunizations. I secretly wonder if just some tiny part of my husband doesn't think that this is only fair given he has had most of his to date (and I suppose it didn't help that I was quite gleeful that he was getting shots and not me). And yes, I said gleeful.
For you see, I am not a shot kind of girl. I know...I know...it's not like it's a terrible thing or painful thing...but I still don't like 'em. Not one little bit. But that's okay...I'll gladly roll up my sleeve and let them poke me if it means I can go to Africa to meet my son.
SO....this week will be my IMM(ugh)nization week.
Already dreading it just a little...
I'll write more after my arm is no longer sore from all the pokes. :)
