Tomorrow we will have some friends over for dinner and on Sunday I'm going to watch soccer, Formula 1 and the FIS ski world cup in Lake Louise, Canada, on TV.
Originally Posted By amazedncal2 DH, oldest son and SIL put up the outside Christmas lights today but some are not working so a trip to Target is in the unscheduled plan for the weekend. I'll be putting away all the Thanksgiving/Fall decorations and dishes and the last load of dishes from Thanksgiving. Time to break out the Christmas dishes, Dept. 56 houses and Disney beanies Sunday I have a meeting with my 1st cousins (we are in our 50's-70's) to discuss our elderly aunt's living arrangements she has no family other than us. It will be a heartbreaking meeting.

My Mom says every year "oh, you don't have get me anything," which is really unhelpful because, of course, I always get her something. I also have a really hard time figuring out what to get my dad and my father-in-law. Good luck with your shopping! Thanks to online deals, I am about 1/3 of the way done with my shopping.

I'm really looking forward to Sunday, because we do that meeting every year and it's always a lot of fun. On Monday we return to Salzburg.

Then we are supposed to go to my parents' to celebrate thanksgiving as it was cancelled last weekend. We were going to decorate for Christmas and I have work to do. But it hurts to do anything right now :-(

Originally Posted By davewasbaloo Sounds like fun. Out plans may have to change. A friend of ours was in hospital last night, they are testing her 3 year old for meningitis. We may be helping with their 5 year old.

My youngest was hospitalized with meningitis at 3 DAYS old, turned out to be viral but she had to be hospitalized for 3 days on IV antibiotics while they waited for the results as to whether it was bacterial.
Originally Posted By davewasbaloo They are running IV antibiotics, and the results should be out soon. In the meantime, my mom was rushed into hospital because of her heart, and my chest and arm pains are back too.
Originally Posted By DyGDisney How is she doing? My daughter's fever broke after a day so they pretty much knew she had viral, but still had to wait the full 3 days for the results. Take care of yourself and your health too, dave.
