Saturday, 2 August

Got up and my sore throat is worse... Didn't sleep more than a few hours, it always feels better during the day so just decided to get up. Fed the dogs, cats and fish. I then started cleaning the dowstairs. Vacuumed, dusted, cleaned all the leather furniture, cleaned up the bar, cleaned the downstairs bathroom and part of the laundry room. Did 3 loads of laundry, folded clothes, got Olivia up and dressed, Kurt got up by then and we went out to Lunch. Lunch was good, Olivia was really good at the restaurant but she definetly is getting more antsy - she wants to walk. SO I took her for a walk around the restaurant - a couple of times. After lunch, went home and relaxed for a bit. I had to lay down for a while - tried to get some rest but that didn't last long. Olivia wouldn't take a nap so I got up and played with her for a while, I then took her to my parent's house - Grandma and Grandpa T watched her while I was at my reunion. I then came home, got showered and dressed and then picked up Michael. He was filling in for Kurt, Kurt had to work. I had the best time, it was wonderful seeing so many people that I haven't seen in 20 years. My favorite person in the whole world from school was there, Katie. We had classes together, we worked at a restaurant together, we lived in apartments by each other - she is just a class act. I'm really glad that I got to reconnect with her. Some people looked exactly the same while others did change a lot. I truly had a wonderful time, I wish I went alone - just because I kept taking off to say Hi to people and left Michael by himself. I was so nervous going, just in case I didn't know anyone - but it turned out to be such a fun night. I forgot my camera and I'm bummed out by that - but hopefully I can get ahold of the people that I want to stay in touch with. We ended up leaving at 10:00 pm, I picked up Olivia and then we came back home. I dropped off Michael, then drove home, put Olivia to bed and tried falling asleep... Unfortunately, my throat started hurting again really bad so I just stayed awake until about 3:00 am.
