Unexpected week of weird

ianukThe weekend was good and productive and Monday was great minus school calling cause Ben was running an almost 102°F. Wow. So, Mel picked him up and brought him home and worked the rest of the day at home. I got off of work at a reasonable time and we were set for scribble since the house was already cleaned! I did not sew after getting yelled at by Ari. I did the calligraphy on my own Queen's Champion scroll which was fun. The running joke is I'm not the queen of grace and beauty....I'm a klutz so we had to come up with a cool turn of phrase and we decided Valkyrie Queen was good. I then helped paint on the cyphers "GOLD GOLD EVERYWHERE!" and it was nice.
Tuesday Mel stayed home to take care of Benton and he was still feverish and sick. By the end of the day he went to the doctor who found nothing wrong except the fever and headache. So I picked up Mason at school so he could get to martial arts. On my way back from the dojo I was bopping along, glanced at my side mirror as you do and looked back ahead to then crash into the car in front of me. I had slammed on the breaks but it was so sudden there was no time. It wasn't very fast and the car was drive-able but I'm sore and they are looking to see if the car is totaled. Sighs. I see my chiro today to get accessed for personal damage. I think I just need a good reset and I'll be good. This is not like the last crash where I had some whiplash.
So I have a rental car (Kia Soul) and am waiting for the collision center to figure out if its repairable or beyond economic repair. Sighs. We were hoping to get 2 more years on it before looking for a new vehicle. Sighs. The problem is we have no idea what we want in another vehicle. We can't get another fit since they've changed it so much I don't fit in it any longer. Which is sad but lowering the internal headroom 4 inches doesn't work for us. I kinda like the Subaru Forester or the Outback but need to test drive them. Anyway...no need to go down that route until we hear from the collision center.
Ben is still sick...we thought it broke yesterday but he again spiked a fever 7 hours after he had meds. Sighs. Luckily today and tomorrow is off of school. Thursday was called off on Tuesday due to a statewide teacher walk out #redfored. Friday was already a grading day so the boy is off school while we are off work for our "off friday". Though due to all of the rigamarole yesterday I may be working part of it.
I'm woefully behind on sewing. I couldn't even brain on Tuesday night I was soo shook up and disappointed in myself. Wednesday we had dinner with Marek and Golda to go over the stepping down/state of the kingdom. We have some fun shenanigans planned. I just need to get stuff to the finish line over the weekend. I have people coming to help which is good. I need to be productive Friday and get the final things cut out as I have someone who can sew them. Course my main machine is growly right now (of course) and we've pulled out my featherweight and may pull out the 1951 machine as well just in case. I can do this...it will be fine. The weekend will be productive, I believe this and we shall overcome...I just had hoped to be further along so I can go see Infinity War. May still get a baby sitter for Saturday night or Sunday AM to do that.

Date: 2018-04-26 04:35 pm (UTC)I had no brain last night. I ended up basically going to bed with a book ridiculously early after staring at the sewing machine and the iron blankly for a while. I hope all our brains return promptly!
Sorry about the car. I hope they can/will fix it.
