Wow! Time flies when your laying around on the couch sleeping on and off for 3 days straight!!! Actually things are going quite well. I never did start taking the Compazine which was my as-needed nausea medicine and I think that helped me feel a little more normal. Kyle was home quite a bit with me on Thursday and Gavin wasn't feeling well Friday & stayed home from school. He and I made a good pair....sleep, watch a movie, eat, sleep, take some meds, sleep. Laura Scott brought a very yummy Chicken and Dumpling Soup for dinner on Thursday night along with a basketful of other goodies-thank you Scott family!! My Mom made me a Tuna Noodle Casserole for Wednesday night. I have not ever made that dish myself but quite often crave my Mom's so I was thankful to get some.
I just realized that I have talked a lot about food, but that's exciting because it means that my nausea hasn't really been an issue despite skipping out on the extra meds!!!
I got to get out for a while this afternoon to go to Gavin's basketball game. I was tired and achy while there but somehow that all fades away when you are watching your son and his buddies tear up the court! Gavin had 9 points including one 3-pointer! I was soooo ready to get home, get back into my comfy clothes and lay down for a while though.
Today felt like a day of extra blessings. My sister Emilie works for a company filled with the most generous & caring people. Her boss Dawn & her husband Larry gave our family a generous gift...the kind that makes you tear up & wonder, again, how you possibly say thank you for such a gift. My friend Nichole gave us a "goodie box" filled with Christmas yummys, my mom-in-law Jill gave us food for dinner tonight and then our mailbox was overflowing (literally) with several packages and cards!
