Columbia association Guest Passes

Hi, I'm looking at purchasing a Columbia association membership this year. We are a family of three, and looking at the prices, it seems like it would be cheaper to actually get membership for one parent and then just buy guest passes for the other parent and kid everytime we go to the pool. Am I misunderstanding something? Are we limited in the number of guest passes we can buy?

Color burst park splash pad

Hi, I'm trying to figure out if the splash pad is open yet. Can anyone confirm seeing if the fountain has been on or off? Or know of a date when they plan to start turning it on? Their website still says 2025 on it so they aren't keeping it up to date

Tantrums are concerning me

Hi so I have a two year old and I think we are starting to experience what some call the "terrible two's" except i'm becoming concerned about what level of tantrums is normal. My daughter can get upset about something and will just cry for 45 minutes straight. She doesnt want us to touch her or be near her, theres nothing that can be done to soothe or calm her, and she sometimes stomps her feet, jumps up and down, or slaps her hands on her legs.

The tantrums aren't happening because she wants attention (in fact she wants us to go away), or to get what she wants (she gets so upset she has no idea what even started it). He recent one was because I helped too much with brushing her teeth and she wanted to do it all by herself. Which I'm ok with and told her she can brush her teeth herself but it was too late and she was inconsolable for at least 30 minutes. It's like her emotions are just too much for her. To some degree I think this is probably normal, but the length and intensity is concerning to me? I just dont know what we should be doing to alter the course or help her learn how to calm down? We've read about and tried some different strategies but it seems like nothing helps.

Edit: i think my concern is we have been trying the common advice, and it does not feel like its helping. She wants nothing to do with us and any amount of gentle talking or touching makes her scream and cry more generally

Worried kidney infection is not healing correctly

I am 30F weighing about 115 lbs and am 5ft 6 inches tall. I was sick over three weeks ago with a cold which turned into bronchitis, which i was diagnosed with May 7th. I was prescribed azithromycin, benzonatate, and abuterol. On May 8th I woke in the middle of the night with sharp flank pain and a fever. I've had a kidney infection before and this felt similar. Plus I have an issue with re-occurent UTIs. I went to the ER because urgent cares were not open. They x-rayed my lungs and did a ct scan. My lungs looked fine and my kidney showed some inflamation indiciating a kidney infection. They prescribed me Cefdinir. Blood culture and urine culture turned out negative, but my blood panel had a bunch of signs of infection, including an Eosinophil Absolute value of 0.83 K/cu mm. I've been feverish since leaving the hospital, which the er doctor said was normal for up to 3 days. I'm now just past 72 hours out and my temperature has naturally gone down to around 99 degrees but physically I still feel vey feverish and ill. On top of all of this my toddler got sick with a stomach bug the night of May 9th. Its going around our house now. No one is getting a fever from it. I beleive I now have it and have been having diarrhea and vomitted once this morning.

I'm debating just continuing with my antibiotics and powering through, since the fever has reduced, even though i still feel ill, and the vomitting is not directly related to my kidney infection. But also I feel terrible and nervous that something is not right. If I do see a doctor is this an urgent care visit or an ER visit?
