What's happening this weekend?
my read shelf:
Re: Happy Friday!!
Saturday - hoa meeting, should be fun /sarcasm. Then going to my parents house to do their taxes. Then hopefully big lots has the rest of my furniture!
Sunday - usual grocery shopping, then H is changing my brakes and my cw's.
The kids and i were going to take a weekend trip to see my dad but on Wednesday my son went from "just getting a cold" to having to rush him to the emergency room.
He is asthmatic and his breathing was getting a little irratic so I gave him his inhalers but he continued to worsen. Within an hour he could barely breathe. On the car ride there he nearly past out but managed to stay awake. The moment we pulled into the ER parking lot he vomited everywhere!
(We live so close to the hospital that waiting for an ambulance would have taken longer than the car ride)
When we got inside emerg. they took us back right away and administered 2 nebulizer treatments and a double dose of liquid prednisone orally. Thankfully this helped and we were allowed to go home but he is on a continued oral steroid treatment as well as antibiotics for his chest and an ear infection.
His breathing is still not ideal but its getting better
*here's a pic of my brave boy! He wanted a picture of himself with his "dragon breathing" mask*
I'm leaving for vacation in Georgia this Thursday so this weekend will be a lot of running around and getting ready for that. Errands, laundry, probably a haircut, catching up on stuff from work...OH, and I have to clean the apartment because we're having people over for game night on Saturday! Sheesh! I love traveling, but getting ready to go anywhere is SUCH a pain.
Lots of baby stuff this weekend.
We will finish the prep work to paint the other half of the nursery.
Tomorrow we have our hospital tour and then we will just be working on things around the house. I'm really hoping to get the room completely painted so that we can build the furniture. Nothing like waiting until almost the last minute, ugh...
Sunday I have brunch in DC with a group of girlfriends and then church. We will probably do some errand running after.
@chasemamabear - I hope your little guy starts feeling better soon!
@pockysquirrel - Have a great vacation!
@Nic12184 - Eek, turning in your thesis, so exciting!
@mana8503 - seriously how are you already 16 weeks??
I don't have any set plans for Saturday or Sunday. DH is working both days so I will be home to do whatever I want. I think I might work on cleaning out the walkin attic space since it is a complete disaster.
No idea for the rest of the weekend. May get some stuff done around the house Saturday. Sunday is our year and a half anniversary. Not sure what's going on that day. DH suggested driving out to the park where we got married. I may consider it depending on the weather. I'd be a bit sad making an hour commute to visit somewhere waterlogged.
This evening, we went out to dinner and now we're relaxing. Tomorrow, H is working and I am going to go shopping with my mom. I only have like 5 maternity tops, obviously not enough. None of my regular clothes fit and they've all been put away
