I am so glad to be at work, having a little break from a very busy weekend!
Friday we ran to the city for a bank appointment and met my sister to pick up the girls cuz they were staying the night. It was stupid hot out so when we got home, we brought the girls into the little pool outside. After supper, we headed to Shawville to watch the Graduation Parade. We then stopped in at friends place, came home and put everyone to bed.
Saturday was another busy day. I ran to Shawville while Everlea napped and once I got back, Shannon was there to pick them up and we were packing up to head to the Wickens to celebrate Kaleigh's graduation. It was stupid hot out and thankful for their pool. We packed up around 4 to head to Chad's birthday BBQ. Tanner was having fun in the pool, so he stayed with my sister in law while Ricky, myself and Maddy headed to Chad and Karine's. It was a nice gathering with lots of food but the sun hit us all and we were home early.
Sunday was Fathers Day. We went to my father in laws and picked up Chinese for lunch. After a little visit and a little game of Pass the Ace, we headed home, grabbed Thai for supper and cleaned up the yard. We went to Mitch and Marlene's for the kids to have a quick swim and then we were all home and in bed early.
How was your weekend?
Another covid weekend...but it was a busy one.
Friday I had an early appointment at the Gatineau hospital at the Nuclear clinic for a HIDA test...wasn't sure what to expect. Maddy wanted to come with me cuz we had some running around to do afterwards but it was a long wait for her in the car. We got there too early so I had to wait in the car. Then when it was time to go in, I was told what was going to happen.
- put in IV
- wait in waiting room, 15 mins
- back in CT scan where he will inject something and then I lay still for 30 mins while they take pics of my gallbladder and liver
- wait in waiting room, 30 mins
- back in CT scan to see if they can now view my gallbladder, no go but he makes a call to the doctor on call and he says to proceed to step 2
- injects some sort of medicine that produces my body to have an attack. I was not ready for this...when I have an attack, it's awful and I didn't want it to happen
- after 5 mins I should feel pain for like 15 mins, but it didn't happen
- lay still for another 30 mins while they take more pics
- leave
- results in 2-3 weeks
I was so hungry and just wanted to get out of there to have something to eat. Go to car and won't start. Maddy has drained my battery and my car won't start. AAAAHHHH!
I have booster cables, but I have no idea how to use them. I get them out and go looking for someone waiting in their vehicle. I find a nice old man two cars down and says he knows how to use them and will help me. Thank to Lord.
5 minutes later, we are on our way! God, I am glad I bought those $2 booster cables at a yard sale!
Friday night we went to wish Chelsea a Happy Birthday and made her a candy bouquet but were home early, in bed early because we were heading to Dorval the next morning to see Nanny.
We picked mom up and were on our way a little after 7 am and arrived in Dorval around 9:30 with Shannon and the girls right behind us. Nanny was so excited to see us. We brought homemade mac and cheese so she didn't have to worry about feeding us and after a nice visit, we hit the road home around 2:30 pm.
Sunday I just wanted to hang out at home, doing nothing. Well I cleaned the bathrooms, cut fruit and stuff and did laundry then while Ricky went fishing, I relaxed and watched Dynasty. We got dressed around 3 pm and headed to Hollie's parents 40th Anniversary BBQ, made an appearance at Mitch and Marlene's for pizza and then home.

How was your weekend?
So I feel that every day is a weekend and it's hard to keep track of the days of the week BUT, I am planning on coming in every Monday, so that allows me to recap on what happened over the weekend!
- My sister and the girls came over, we had a great visit
- Friday after I did some work, we went to Hollie's for a swim
- My sister in law came over Saturday for a BBQ
- It rained a lot on Saturday which is great for my little garden. Super exciting to go out every day and have a look to see what is budding through and thriving. My radishes are doing great. I have some onions up, some cucumbers, beans, pea and lettuces - tomato plants and pepper plants still look the same and I have a wee little strawberry starting. I don't think my cantaloupe is doing okay though.
- My FB Covid Chat group struck again this weekend...in my mailbox I found a lovely keychain with some wood burning.
- I finished the newest episodes on Netflix of Heartland and started Little Fires on Prime while still watching Modern Family with Maddy.
Looking forward to this week:
- in the office today (Monday)
- Helping Maddy with assignments she has for French and English
- Chatting with Tanner's class on Tuesday - music on Wednesday and Yoga on Friday
- Cleaning my house on the rainy days
- Planning on making cinnamon buns
- Hoping to sit outside, soaking in some sun rays
- Hoping to see my brother, Sue and baby Owen
- Hoping to see the beach back open
How was your weekend?
