Especially Thankfull…
Thursday, November 27th, 2008Just got home from the Emergency Room, been there for the last 3 hours or so. Kayla’s fever spiked to 105.5, the nurse told us to bring her in. Really scary, those sorts of things. You don’t know what’s wrong and there isn’t much you can do. It’s not strep, but it is a virus. Nothing much we can do except give her Tylenol and Ibuprofen ever 4 and 6 hours. She should be good in a couple days. I can tell you I’ll be disinfecting the shopping carts at Target from now on.
Other than that we had a really nice day. Got up at 6am to put the biggest bird ever in the oven. Seriously, the thing weighed 23lbs. I do not reccomend this. If you want to make a lot of turkey, get 2 small ones. It was quite a feat to get it out of the oven and then flipped over to carve it. We had quite a spread too, all the usuals, dressing, sweet potatoes, mac & cheese and green bean casserole. Even some new treats, like french silk pie and caramel apple pie. Once we were able to get up and start moving around again, we played a riveting game of Balderdash. It was insatiable ( lol to Dave).
So anyway, to sum it up, it’s been a really long day. Thank you to my Sister in law Holly for keeping me calm and to my mother in law Kandris for staying at the hospital with me. Ya’ll are the best
Happy Thanksgiving!
