Busy Weekend
So my nephew should be here at 9:15 to go to work with me, where he ought to be a great deal of help. He’ll get picked up from there about 5:30 - 6:00, which is all the better because I was going to drive him home. Before I can even go to work with him, we have to (or he has to hang here while I) go to Super Wal-Mart for some stuff I didn’t go get yesterday. Especially wipes, which are going even faster than anticipated with two squirts using them. Diapers for the new squirt. If possible, a thermometer for Sadie…
She’s very sick. Which explained why she slept 13 1/2 hours Thursday night, then napped for hours. My goofy forehead thermometer from the first aid kit says she’s not especially hot, but to us she felt (until the Tylenol kicked in anyway) like she was burning up. She hasn’t been anywhere to catch anything. Well, except the doctor’s office first thing last Tuesday for Val and Deb’s appointments. Could be that, or I carried something home. She’s never been so sick before. We were up with her at 5:00 for a while. She had a glass of mostly juice in bed with her (and had downed another before that), almost emptied it overnight, so I started her on a refill of water spiked with a little apple juice. She didn’t eat well for, heck, about the past 48 hours. The main thing she would eat was grapes, and bananas, until we ran out.
Anyway, I have to try to get spam filtering working for my client - again - without that breaking e-mail completely - again. There are some other things that can use doing, thus my nephew to help. We also need to find a way to make the house presentable. Nicole is visiting from Oregon, so she and three other friends are coming over tomorrow to see us, each other, and the baby. And Sadie too. I bought a big turkey on sale for 69 cents a pound, so I am planning to cook that and feed everyone, rather than the usual ordering pizza kind of deal. That’s another element of shopping this morning (which I could do tonight if we weren’t down to maybe 10 wipes); filling in missing stuff for dinner tomorrow. Plus a few odds and ends.
If I post nothing for most or all of the rest of the weekend, it’s because I am flat out with shopping, work, cleaning, cooking, and visiting. Plus poor Sadie.
Hope she’s feeling better today.
Posted by Ith on 03/05 at 04:09 PMGood for you, Giving up emotions even negative ones is a very hard prospect. Reading you post made me think about if there are any negative emotions that I need to shut out of my life.
