Granny's gone and done it again

Doing fine. DD1's BF headed back to Indiana today. She and DW are in "packing mode" we leave to take DD up to New Brunswick for university on Thursday.

DW's parents and sister are coming over for rib roast tomorrow evening. It has been New Years/DW's Bday (next Saturday) tradition for decades. I was given the assignment when the in-laws moved to the retirement community some years back. I also got Thanksgiving but the DDs and I were in So. Cal at my Dad's 90th party this year so I got out of it ;)

Sorry you are sick. That just shouldn't be happening when you are on vacation!
Oh goodness, I way overpacked when I moved into a dorm. Even moving back in after break. She won’t need half the stuff she thinks she does. Is she living with roommates? If so I hope they get along.
Sounds like a busy week for you. Do you cook the roast? I bet the inlaws look forward to getting together for dinner. Time to catch up.

I always get sick on breaks. Couple years ago I had the flu and strep throat on Christmas. Thought I was dying. When I was in college I had the swine flu over Christmas break. For 3 days I slept on the couch and didn’t eat. Lost 15lbs. Had like 5 blankets on and mumbled a lot.
 
We hit 60 the other day too although it was stormy and dark. I hope I can get a lot done tomorrow. I’m kind of behind.
I am way far behind on what i planned to do. I should have a few more cages done by now. Not liking being in the workshop when it is cold. I did cut out the ends for a new feeder though.

No roommate. I think like 80% of the rooms at Mt. Allison are singles. Her room is one of the many with a bathroom as well. These are important things since her migraines are triggered (well actually her permanent migraine is exacerbated) by fragrances. Not a good idea to have to share bathroom facilities with people who like to "smell nice".

If I don't cook the roast, we don't eat ;) We saw them on Christmas Day. MIL kept that one because she never in her adult life cooked a big dinner ON Christmas Day, always Christmas Eve. Figured things were busy enough on "the day" so dinner is shrimp, rolls, crudites. Easy enough. She's not made 'real' dinner since they moved to the retirement community, dinner is included in the price. They have full kitchens but I'd bet 95% of the people there never make dinner even though Sunday is brunch only, people just eat their big meal then and bring something back to eat later. My Dad lives in a similar type place in So. Cal.

Shall we remind you that you have been suffering painful illnesses of late??? Oh, and you are older now, might need to slow down a bit :gig
