Office Visits

It is amazing how one week can change dramatically from the next. This week I have spent quite a bit of time in doctor or dentist offices. I used my time there to read the magazines they had. I quickly found out that not all of them are up to date! I guess I wasn't completely surprised but considering that it is a place of business I just assumed that they get the most recent copy of any magazine they choose. My readings this week were not very exciting at all. I had two appointments on Wednesday and then my daughter got sick Friday and still was not better today so I had to take her back in. So needless to say I have had my fair share of office visits this last week!! 

Unfortunately, I did not read anything that really stuck with me. I found a couple of interesting tips in a parenting magazine on how to get your toddler to sleep  in their OWN bed. It just reassured me that this "phase" she is experiencing is not just happening to me! I was relieved to read that it is normal and can be overcome. She has recently started to be "scared" of everything at night. At first, I thought maybe she was pulling my leg because she was fighting her sleep but now I know that it happens to toddlers sometimes. 


Other magazines I read were not very interesting. There were, of course, a ton of magazines about celebrities and the latest in their lives. However, some of the magazines were from months even a year ago so it was "old" news. Others I wasn't too sure if what I was reading was even really true. They make the headline so catchy that you want to read it but then by the time your done reading it did not even seem like news. I did get to read about details of events in their lives that I had not heard about but that was about it. 

I tried really hard to find SOMETHING of interest in a Business Week magazine but I had no luck. It just was not my kind of  read I suppose. I did enjoy flipping through the magazines and stopping to read anything that seemed intriguing. It was not what I had in mind for reading this week but with having my own appointments and a sick child there wasn't much of anything I could get done anyway!
