So Much
So many things are happening, I'm not even sure where to start ...
I guess the first thing is that KD's grandpa passed away on Saturday. He had been in the hospital with pneumonia and was going in for surgery to repair a broken hip and femur.
It is so hard when something awful happens to someone you love and you can't be there to comfort and grieve with them. KD, we love you and we are always here, whenever you need us.
I have resigned myself to the fact that I will be sick for the rest of the Winter and, most likely, the Spring. Apparently our insurance company had a problem with ProMedica facilities and broke ties with them, so now we're not sure where we're supposed to go! I have been taking Nyquil tablets and chewing Zicam strawberry things (Mindy can tell you what they taste like :o) and I have been feeling better during the days, but my evenings aren't so great.
Yesterday, with the help of my Dad and Brian's Dad, the tile in the bathroom was pulled up and a new floor put in ... we're going to put down the new tiles tonight after we paint. We had to special order the drain and trap for our new sink, which won't be in until early next week, so for now we still have our old sink. I'm so anxious to see what it will look like after it's all painted and the new stuff is installed. Almost everything is new ... new sink, new mirror, new light fixtures, new shower head, new floor, new paint!
We're getting a dish installed today - by Adam. Brian's been going nuts not being able to watch the news or hockey and I miss my cooking shows!
We had a big New Year's Eve party. We mostly just ate and played Mad Gab ... for like 5 hours. Kelly & Craig brought a TON of food, and hundreds of Jell-O shots. I ended up making veggie pizza, pesto torta, potstickers, cookies & brownies and they brought popcorn chicken, cheesey dip, cheese & crackers, summer sausage, veggies and cookies. There was so much food leftover, but not too many Jell-O shots were left. Then Sunday morning we had a big breakfast at my parent's with M & B, and then brunch at Dad & Vicki's ... so much food was consumed over the weekend. Last night we had pizza and tonight I'm making sausage chili & cornbread! And then I think I won't eat for like ... maybe 4 hours.
Must go and actually start some work.
