Trying week...

It feels soooo good to be back in our routine...sort of.

Two weeks ago Garrett spent Monday and Tuesday at his Grandparents, he was driving them back and forth from the hospital as Grandpa has taken a turn for the worse. His mother also had an accident, she fell out of a truck and broke her kneecap in half, requiring surgery and some screws attached to a metal screen to put it all back together. we then found out Grandpa has less than a month to live.

The rest of the week was spent with his best friend Ron, and his wife Nikki, who were visiting from Wisconsin, so we had a mini-vacation, in between, of course, phone calls from mom and grandma as well as his classes and my La Leche work. It was a wonderful time of visiting, but we all stayed up too late and ate too much junk. sigh.

So this week, Garrett has basically moved in with the grandparents to provide hospice care, and the boys and I have been keeping the home fires burning...and fighting the flu. again. I am starting to think there might be something in our condo or the complex that is aggravating our immune systems. Once again, something out of our control at this point.

We have been visiting back and forth, but couldn't go today (Germs) but Garrett did come and check up on us (while other family was there helping out) So, basically, prayers are needed, for Grandpas salvation, and wisdom and strength for both Garrett and I.

Menu:
Breakfast boiled eggs and toast
Lunch leftover chicken, corn and black-bean soup (yummy!) sourdough toast (impulse buy when I was shopping for grandma)
Dinner Bean and cheese quesadillas with Guacamole.

Tomorrow is a day of running around, I have dr's appointments for the boys, Farmer's market, WIC and maybe the Library. Whew! I'm exhausted just thinking about it!
