Well.......so much for my wonderful B-day weekend.
I made it up north and then fell ill and by Saturday (on my birthday) I was in the ER w/ a full on Asthma attack (triggered by a simple little cold) I thought I was dying......I have NEVER had an attack like this. The doctor was talking about admitting me so they could try to get my lungs clearer... Of course I WAS NOT happy about this..... All I could think about was the fact that my little boys were away from not only their father but now mom as well.
Thankfully, they let me come home after HOURS of breathing treatments, steroids, and peakflows.
I am so grateful for my family. My brother stayed w/ my boys and took such great care of them...they were happy, fed and ready for bed by the time we made it home late that evening.
We have made it home safely and let me tell you I am counting the days until DH returns home. I miss him!
On the knitting front....no news. I am really itching to show you all the progress I have made on the wide whale ribbed socks. I will try and post pictures later this afternoon.
