Since I posted last, we have had a few different things going on. Exactly 1 week ago I took Justin to the doctor because we were worried he had Pneumonia. When we got there the Doctor told him it was a bad case of Bronchitis, I was so relieved. She prescribed him some antibiotics to keep it from turning into pneumonia and some cough medicine with Codeine in it to help him sleep.
After I got him home at about 4ish, he slept from then until about 8 the next morning. He kept going from freezing cold to roasting hot, throwing up, coughing, migraine pains...the works. I felt so bad for him. At one point I couldn't wake him up and his fever was so bad I almost hauled him to the ER, but I finally got him woken up and some aspirin in him and about an hour later his fever broke
Whew!
It was some scary business, but after he woke up the next day he did better. He wasn't up and moving for about 3 days and today is the first day he's been back to work since that Tuesday.
Since Justin was so sick we didn't go to Volleyball on Wednesday or Basketball on Thursday, so we got to spend a lot of 'at home time' which got me a little big stir crazy and gave me some new decorating ideas.
I feel like with all the decorating we've done in the house, it ties together pretty well for the most part, but the parts that don't tie in have really started bugging me. I have now decided that I'm going to start in the Master Bedroom and re-do the whole upstairs one room at a time.
I will feel much better having the whole house feeling unified/personalized to our {mostly my} style.
I also feel that if I take on that project, by the time the basement is finished, I can incorporate the same colors and themes into the basement to make the entire house feel united. I'm really excited!
On Friday Justin's cousins Dan and Wendy came out to hang out and we had such a good time!!!
We got Justin out of bed for the first time since Tuesday and we dragged him out to Dinner at Club XS. It was the first time we had eaten there, but we had heard it was good. I wasn't very impressed at all, but it was nice to just sit and talk with Dan and Wendy and be out of the house.
Saturday Wendy and I went shopping for the majority of the morning for my Birthday {Pictures to come soon}. I had so much fun! She is just fun to talk to and hang out with. Thanks Wendy!
After we went shopping we went home just to find that Justin and Dan put up a piece of Sheet Rock!! I was SO EXCITED! I can't believe that we have {a part of} a wall!!!
After we ate some lunch Dan and Justin went over to Dianne's house and Dan got a Cockateil {Same place we got our two from}
While the boys were doing that Wendy and I did a little more shopping then we got ready for my party.
My family and Justin's family and some of my friends came over and we ate dinner and dessert, opened presents and played Just Dance on the Wii!
It was such a great time.
Sunday, for my Birthday, We got up and helped get Dan and Wendy on their way home, then we just napped. When we woke up we headed to Jensen where I colored my mom's hair for her and we ate dinner and looked through cookbooks. {One of my favorite things to do}
It was great!
All in all I had a great birthday! Thank You to Everyone to help this whole weekend feel like one big Happy 22nd Birthday for me!
Yesterday I was back at the homework again while Justin enjoyed his last day off work for 7 days. Today he's been back to work and I'm so grateful that it's a nice day outside for him to work in. Heaven only knows the last thing his lungs need is more cold air!
On a side note!! I forgot to mention that while Dan was here we inducted him into our project and him and Justin hauled 11 more pieces of sheet rock into the basement and all 24 rolls of Insulation that we need to sound proof our basement ceiling. Right now if there's someone walking upstairs while you're downstairs, it sounds like a herd of elephants.
Not cool.
So I'm beyond thrilled that it's all sitting down there.
Now to just put it together :D
