Thursday was crazy day at our house. Len and I realized that Mika wasn't just mopy about the new kitten but horribly sick. By the time we rushed her to the vet she had a really high fever and could barely walk. Dr. Gould was amazing though. He checked everything over and gave her two types of antibiotics to fix her up. I worked at home to keep an eye on her and let myself feel better about the whole thing. By Friday night she was almost herself again, thank goodness. Len was pretty amazing.He just took control of the whole situation, knowing I was pretty upset. No matter what anyone else thinks Len is definitely my knight in shining armour. And he just keeps proving it time and time again. We took her to "Gramma's" house with Aki to hang out with Kaiyou. It wasn't so bad. Aki was a bullet most of the time tearing up the house one second downstairs the next up, then back down again. Kaiyou was pretty tolerant of the little ornage tornado. Mika and Kaiyou never bother each other so we were happy for that.
Saturday was crazy running around day, trying to keep gramma's Suprise party a secret. We managed to pull it off with a good attendance of gramma's family. Gramma was so cute and gracious when she came into the room. It was very sweet. She went from table to table, we finally had to tear her away to give her corsage to her! Everyone had an awesome time. I met some family mambers I had not met yet, gramma's sister, her niece. Saw some old family friends. It was great. The food was yummy, we almost demolished TWO large slab cakes from Cost-co, and no we didn't put all of the 250 candles Carol bought on the cakes. We divided up 85 onto the two cakes. I can't wait to see the picures that everyone took. We of course did one huge family pic, I think we managed to get everyone in....it was a squeeze. I think thats the first time we've had all those people together for a very long time.

Sunday was actually pretty crappy. I started to feel sick on Friday night, staying awake all night with a terribly sore throat, I managed to push it aside for the party but it fought back with avengence Saturday night/Sunday morning. I basically slept most of Sunday, missed Ephraim's party :( ....trust me Jamie you wouldn't have wanted me around your kids! So thats all, thats the short version. I didn't accomplish any knitting....I need to go to Wal-Mart for another ball of "lashes". I have a meeting at the hospital tonite regarding how the hospital deals with patients with mental illnesses, their families, and support services offered. Should be interesting. Hopefully it will have some impact for the positive. We'll see, I'll keep you posted.
