mid-night ear pain...

I just happened to be up at 1:30 this morning. I heard someone walking around and then Sam's 13 year old cousin Emily arrived in the basement. Poor thing, she had a terrible earache and had been tossing and turning. I took her upstairs and gave her some childrens pain reliever then I went on the hunt for a heating pad. The newest heating pad was not working, so I had to go back up stairs and dig until I found another one that worked. I set her up on the sofa in the den. She had to get up early to go fishing with Sam and Cliff. I saw her before they left and she was feeling much better and Cliff thanked me for taking care of her last night. Emily is such a sweet girl and I felt so sorry for her last night. I've been there....it sucks when you have an earache and can't sleep.
