Week in Review
Apr. 17th, 2009 09:05 pmMonday, migraine and more. Kept L company at kungfu but did not participate.
Tuesday, migraine better but sneezing and blowing my nose. No fever, yay.
Tuesday night get email from Mom that my cousin Cary's wife Madelein died (just turned 50 a few weeks ago). Later in week we got more details -- brain aneurysms. Her body is on life support as they try to determine if one of her kidneys will be a match for another cousin of mine. That would be one piece of goodness out of that sadness, and of course her other organs will also be donated, per family wishes. She leaves behind a husband and two kids. Thankfully one of them is older and can help out. I only met her a few times but she was a really nice person. She beat cancer several years ago, too. RIP, cousin.
Wednesday I was feeling off enough to stay home and not even watch kungfu class. Did dance a little at home, but only a short bit here and there.
Thursday and Friday I got in walks, and Friday evening made it to class. No fever just snuffly, plus I break out in a rabid sweat the minute I do something. Overheated about halfway through the class and had to sit down for a few minutes, but after I took off my top shirt (I had on a tank top underneath in case we went outside), things were a little more manageable and I finished the class.
Somewhere in there, sewing and other stuff happened. The new tent arrived and we'll be setting it up this weekend to check everything. I helped with loading some of the hay and then L decided I needed to be kept away from dust for a day or two. I'm pretty sure other things happened as well.
Oh yeah. Peredur caught a couple more mice -- only now apparently he's eating most of them. Just a couple of bits left over (yay). L thought maybe he hadn't been eating them before because he was trying to help take care of Roselynde (fresh food!). The vet will be happy to hear the news.
I can sometimes hear Susan Boyle singing in my head now....
So, happy, sad, tiring, inspirational, and just about every other thing a person can experience, all in one week! Let's hope for a more peaceful time next week, for everyone.
