Entry for October 22, 2006 - What a day.....
Well, yesterday was a very busy day. It was nice even if we had a lot to do we did not really have a schedule to follow. We began the day by visiting our neighbors and then hitting the local florist to get my grandmother some flowers. We then stopped by one of our good friends house to drop of some baked goods for a Halloween party they were having later on that evening. Boy, they had a lot of work left to do. We then finally made it to the hospital to see my grandfather at around 1 or so, only 2 hours later than we originally thought. Oh well. We had a great visit and my grandfather looks wonderful!!! He was even transferred out of critical care!!! He has his laid back attitude back, so you know he is feeling better. He was also eating again. This is a huge plus! Hopefully he will be able to go home sometime this week. If it was up to him he would have left days ago!!!
Christian and I had a perfect Sweetest Day dinner at one of our favorite spots up in the Lansing area - Spags. It was so nice to be able just sit and enjoy each others company with no one else around. We made it home around 9:30 or so. Only to get up and go around midnight to go and pick my brother up from the airport. He flew in from Colorado to visit my grandfather - what a great guy!!! Bedtime came around 1:30am and before I knew it it was 5:30 and I was up and at it again. My brother needed to be in Lansing by 9am for a meeting at the hospital. So, needless to say, I am now running on about 4 hours of sleep and my husband is currently taking a nap while I am doing the laundry. He needs his sleep since he is the one that has to work in the morning.
To sum it all up - what a day we had yesterday. Today is all about RELAXATION and of course a little house work and our daily walk.
