Bittersweet

It's been a very very bittersweet week.

My best friend in the whole world drove up from Vegas to spend an entire week with me! :)

So far our week looks like this.

I get home from work late saturday night after battling a toothache all day. I take fabulously drastic and powerful drugs that do their job and knock me out. Vanessa gets in about 1 am sunday morning.

Sunday we go to church, and then spend a terrific afternoon with the Logans, Petersens, Holly, Marianne, Dan and all the kiddos that come with that group.

Monday we sleep in late late. We went to Tucanos with Chase to 'celebrate' my birthday and eat amazing food. Because I am still taking lots of beautiful drugs to keep my toothache away we napped again. We finally get up and go out for a girls night with Holly. (already posted about that fun)

Tuesday slept late again. :) Walked through the new house that is just 5 weeks from being done. Went to Sub Zero with Holly and Mitch. Took Vanessa to sign papers to sell Pest Control with me this summer!!! :) Then we went to babysit the Logan kids. Loved it! They are so much fun. So well behaved. And so so darling.

I was in and out of it all night. And Vanessa started to develop a sore throat and we hit the sack once we got home.

Wednesday, Vanessa was not feeling good at all, but we pulled ourselves out of bed and went up to Salt Lake to meet Marissa for lunch. It was wonderful to be all together again. And sad that it was so short. I was getting anxious and my mouth was hurting after lunch so I took one of my hydrocodone pills and let Vanessa drive us home. We stopped at the health food store and then headed to Mapleton. 

4 hours later with no toothache and a very sore jaw I left the dentist. We stayed at my Mom's house so we could get all doctored up from her. 

Today we lounged about. Vanessa still fighting the flu and some sore throat. I did the dishes, showered, and we both ate a bit of brunch, and then took a couple hours to sleep more. Then Hopey took us to a movie. We went to Tangled at the dollar theater. It was a darling movie. I think I want it for my collection. I loved getting out with my bestie and my little sis. Luckily the nausea subsided and I was able to enjoy.

It's been so wonderful having Vanessa here. I hope that we are both tiptop shape tomorrow. I'm so grateful that we are good enough friends that we don't have to be partying to enjoy each other. Crashing in bed or in front of the fire and just being in one another's company is pretty fantastic.

Here's to a great weekend, and more good times!

Probably not the smartest health choice, but we stopped for an ice cream after the movie. :)
