Mid-Week Recap

My sisters did come and visit Mom on Sunday.  They were there about 3 hours.  We spent about 2 and a half hours with them.  First out on the side patio in the sun (which Mom loves to feel on her skin) and then, when she got cold, in the lobby.  I showed them pictures of Christa's dress on my camera.  We talked about the wedding plans, Connie being able to come or not, colors, etc. 

Barb had the necklace she made for my co-worker, Kristal.  Similar to the one I posted earlier, but longer.  She also left some with me to sell for her.  So far, I've only sold one more, but it looks like Kristal may take another one since Barb can modify it for her.  Everyone really likes the stuff, but everyone is also pretty broke.

I'm really pimping at work, LOL.  I'm selling Barb's jewelry, Girl Scout cookies for my boss's daughter and trying to get donations for Tami's son's Trike-a-thon. 

Randy wore a cheesehead that we were dropping off to Christa at her work while we were visiting Mom.  It was Superbowl Sunday and the Packers were playing the Steelers.  We were hoping to spend the game with Olivia and Josh, but neither of us has felt very well, so we canceled.  I was sooooo bummed!  They were roasting a pig in their new pit and I really wanted to try it.  Not to mention to get up there and play with the kids!  Christa says she's glad Olivia had children to save her the pressure of me nagging for grandchildren. Mom was so embarrassed that Randy was wearing the cheesehead and would actually duck when people walked by.  It was too funny.  She couldn't even really look at him.  She would start to say something and then stop and say, "I can't take you seriously in that hat."  Randy would reply, "You're not supposed to, It's for FUN!"

Randy and I have been hacking and sneezing all week.  Maiko, at my work, is just dying and she has to get on an airplane and fly to New Orleans to give a presentation at a Physical Therapy conference.  I didn't think she was going to make it through the day.  I bought her Gatorade, Dayquil and Ricoloa to help her along.  I don't know how she got through an Eval with a returning patient that is an absolute LOON.  She is either schizo-affective or a major druggie or both.  She can't even follow a complete thought or sentence.  Crazy.

I guess I'll finish this in another post.  My hubby wants me to come back to bed for an hour so he can sleep.  I can think of worse ways to spent the insomniac early morning.

  1. Can I just say I love everyone of your posts. Seriously. They are terrific. I am so happy to be able to read them. Hope the wedding plans are going well. I do not envy you. I love that you're the CPRx pimp. I guess someone had to take over my job after I moved to Philly. Where did you look at dresses? I love that Randy wore a cheesehead. I have a ton more to say, but my computer is dying.

  2. Thanks, Annalisa! I can't believe I missed your comment. I hope I can do your pimping justice, LOL. We looked at Jinny's in Huntington Beach and at David's Bridal. I really thought I'd have Frances make it, but it was too good a deal to pass up at David's. Love your posts, hope you do more soon!
