Snowy Happy Halloween & Headaches Over the Weekend!

Weekdays:

  • Monday - Connor had basketball in the evening and Maci had gymnastics makeup class.  She was supposed to have had soccer after gymnastics but they had to cancel due to lights not working at the field.
  • Tuesday - I did a happy hour with my former coworker/friend Laura.  I then picked up Maci from her Infiniti training after Clint had dropped her off.
  • Wednesday - I had a hair appointment at 4p so finished working for my day from the salon.  Maci had her last outdoor practice for the season and I picked her up on my way home.  While we hung at the house, Connor and Clint had a 7p basketball practice.
  • Thursday - Happy Halloween!! I worked from home to make trick o treat easier.  Some rain turned into snow late morning and it was crazy thick heavy snow with crazy winds.  It look like blizzard conditions.  Then at 12p our power went out - turns out a utility van smacked into a power pole and took out power including the high school.  Clint and I ran to a coffee shop in this mess so I could get 2 of my critical calls complete.  We got home around 2p and the power was back right around 230p thank goodness.  Finally around 4p the snow and wind stopped.  Everything started to melt and so our trick o treating was chilly but really wet.  The kids still had a blast and we did our usual riding on the trailer with the neighborhood crew.  Maci was pretty quiet and said her head hurt but she hung with it.

Friday :
  • I had a productive day until a crazy migraine came on around 3p so I crawled into bed trying to shake it.
  • While I was napping, Connor got to walk home to Anna’s house with Anna and Chuck after school.  They were going to do some Halloween Candy trading.  Clint had ran his bag of candy over to their house around lunch time.
  • I could not shake the damn headache and Maci came home feeling like poo too.  
  • Clint and I had to cancel our Halloween plans, Jack and Jill will be seen next year!
  • Maci and I both took meds and hit the hay.
Saturday
  • Woke up feeling ok as did Maci so we went and got their flu shots at 830a.
  • We grabbed some breakfast and came home before I headed out to my 10a massage.
  • Clint ran Maci to Gymnastics at 11a.
  • I came home and took down Halloween, put up Thanksgiving and started watching the OSU game with Clint before running to get Maci at 1230p from her Gymnastics.
  • Maci said her head started really hurting again and mine kind of did too. 
  • We came home and curled up in my bed to watch Now and Then - love that movie and so did Maci!
  • We kept chilling while Clint and Connor went to the dome to do some baseball practice with Chuck, his brother and dad.  They then went to BW3 while Maci took meds and went to bed.
  • We were supposed to head to the Theis house for a bonfire and tree lighting BUT Maci felt like poo and I wasn’t going to leave her alone so Clint went on behalf of our family while Maci and I went to bed early.
All the kiddos but minus the Mondells - stupid sickness

Sunday
  • I do love gaining an hour!
  • I woke up feeling like a million bucks and thank goodness my Bengals made me feel great too!
  • Maci is still feeling a bit rough so she is on a DayQuil & Tylenol rotation.
  • Thankfully we have a chill day with no plans.  That means lots of house to dos, football and cozy!
  • Hoping Maci turns the corner before school tomorrow and Connor is enjoying the down time for some video games.
Hope you all had a wonderful Halloween!  Here is to a November full of gratefulness!!
Lots of Love,
C, K, M & C
