On the morning of March 19th . . . an exciting thing happened. I gave my 9yo his last dose of an antibiotic.
Exactly on time.
Meaning, not one of TWENTY doses had been missed.
I shared on Facebook, and you celebrated with me. Evidently, I’m not the only one who has stretched a ten-day antibiotic into sixteen days.
I’ve tried everything. I’ve taped neon-colored signs to the stove, the fridge, the coffee-maker.
But I always miss a dose or six. Neon-colored signs are no match for my Slob Vision.
So how did I do it this time?

I set the alarm on my phone to repeat every day, twice a day.
I may not be able to find keys or shoes or certain totally-necessary unmentionables when I need them . . . but I’ve never lost my phone.
