Doctor gave him an antibiotic and eye drops. His eye is still pretty swollen but it's not as inflamed and he said it's not as painful as yesterday.
He asked the doctor how he can prevent this from happening, and the doc said, lock yourself in the closet with no human contact.

Awww, it's probably rough, but you will get used to it and then LOVE the time to just do your thing. We will be facing that next week. Jake will attend preschool for 4 hours a day, and with traffic that translates to about 3.5 hours of me all by my lonesome. I think it will be weird at first, but I know that I will find something to keep me occupied (homework!!)
Hugs to you!! Hope BB is feeling tip-top soon as well.

Hey--JOIN THE CLUB WOMAN!!! 
Mother of inschoolchildren here too.
there's always Bridge Club, and then crochet circle and quilting bee and then i'm off to Pinocle. Bingo is so enriching, as is the Oprah Winfrey show. 
it is weird but you'll get used to it.
