Kenna is thankfully feeling better. I took her to the Dr. on Friday afternoon, her temperature was 103.4! He checked her over, twice. He did a urine and throat culture, checked her ears, listened to her stomach, checked her for a rash, etc… He seemed a bit more worried about her than previous illnesses but was finally convinced that it was just a virus. He said that he had a large influx of kids with high fevers and stomach issues. Although Kenna wasn’t exhibiting any stomach issues, he was still pretty confident it was the same virus. He said to watch her closely and to call him this weekend if she didn’t get better. Thankfully, she was fine by Saturday morning.
I took the kids up to my sister-in-law’s on Saturday to cook for her for the HCG diet. (More on that tomorrow) She was kind enough to keep the kids overnight so Brad and I could go to a party for Brad’s work. We had a good time. It was a party thrown by one of his clients for all their employees. It was at the Tucson Museum of Art. The museum was really interesting, some really bizarre things and some completely awe inspiring. The tiki themed party was outside the museum had an open bar, casino games and dancing. I pretty much stayed at the black jack tables all night while Brad mingled with co-workers. We left around midnight. I was up $17,000 in black jack, but since it was all for raffle tickets of which I didn’t win anything, I have nothing to show for it but bragging rights.
Sunday we had to meet Brad’s parents at Pappy’s house to finish the final clean out and get it ready for sale. Everyone was a bit grumpy. Ours was from lack of sleep, my inlaws from being over-worked but I think we were all feeling the emotional pull from the loss of Pappy.
This afternoon, after a nap and some swimming, Hailey started complaining of a tummy ache. It could be food related as her and Brad ate some leftover scrambled eggs while I was sleeping and Brad’s tummy is upset too but, I’m betting money, it’s the same bug Kenna had.
This week is pretty jam packed so I hope, if she does have it, that she recovers as quickly as Kenna did. Tomorrow, Monday, I have to clean, meal plan, grocery shop and do laundry, all of which was neglected this weekend. Tuesday is music class for the girls and I have to start getting the garage set up for our upcoming yard sale. Wednesday my mom-in-law is coming over so I can cook for the HCG diet for her. Also, that’s Brad and my anniversary so some kind of nice dinner is in order. Thursday we pack up for our annual ‘staycation’ at my parent’s house while they go out of town. I think some friends are coming over to swim that afternoon too. Friday I have to go back to Pappy’s with my mom-in-law to do the final wipe down, dusting and vacuuming of everything. Saturday we’re having a “Parents are away” swim party and Sunday we’re collapsing back at home after cleaning up the ‘rents house.
Tomorrow I’ll post more about the HCG diet and later this week I’ll have some fun pictures during our staycation. My parents have a large house, a huge yard with produce planted all around, a pool, chickens, dogs, turtles and our grandma next door. Trust me; it’s a photo op at every turn
