I brought a bad cold home with me. Luckily it didn't hit me until Friday. I have not been out of the house since I got home and have not gotten out of my sweats! Sonny was a sweetheart and went to the store for me yesterday and bought a case of ginger ale (which I have drunk half of it in two days!) and a decongestant. One of my tricks for fighting a cold is to use Mentholatum ointment on my nose. I rub it all over and inside my nose and it helps me breathe. It grosses Sonny out! I felt a little better today compared to yesterday so hopefully Monday will be a much better day.
While I was in Texas, we had a visit from my son, Jeff, his wife, Darcie and their son, Jayce. Oh, it was so wonderful to see them. We have not seen each other in almost 6 years. They came to Ashley's house on Dec 26th after their flight from Tucson. We had a good visit, had Christmas with them, took them over to the
Quadrangle at Fort Sam, and then went to one of our favorite Mexican restaurants. The next day Sonny and I drove to Austin and spent some time with them at
Zilker Park and then enjoyed some BBQ at Stubbs. I had such fun with Jayce and it was such a joy to hear him call me Grandma! He is a typical boy and reminds me so much of Jeff at his age - very precocious, stubborn and definitely has a mind of his own! I kept trying to take pictures and he would run and hide from me. I finally was able to get a few pictures ... on the sly! Such a sweetie! Also, it was wonderful to spend time with Jeff and Darcie and catch up with their lives. Just wish we'd had more time.
