It just keeps getting better...

So I get a call from daycare yesterday at just about 5pm. I am about 20 minutes away but John is about 5 minutes from there. Miss Katie wanted to let me know Grace was playing in the gym and slipped and ran head first into the cement wall. Yikes. Ok. They tell me is is pretty upset and has ice on it now. I let John know so he won't be surprised in 3 minutes when he gets there.

I get home and she is crying as I open the door. John tells me that we are going to the emergency room because she can't see out of her eye! WHAT???????????????? So I calm her down barely and have her tell me how many fingers I am holding up while I am also closing the other eye. She says 2. Nope. Off we go.

She is more freaked out about going to the hospital then the fact she couldn't see out of her eye. By the time the dr. came in, which was about 15. minutes because we were at Zeeland, she could see out of her eye just fine. Oy. They gave her tylenol, she fell asleep on me which is apparently ok even with head injury, and came back and checked on her and their medical opinion was that she "Got Her Bell Rung".

No daycare and a parent should stay with her for at least 24 hours to make sure nothing changes.

And there is a winter weather advisory pretty much across the whole state.

And my Grandpa's visitation/funeral is a one day thing all starting at 1pm today.

Like the title of this post, it just keeps getting better. NOT!

Ready for a new year..................

Seriously. My Grandpa Julius passed away yesterday. I haven't really seen him too much since say, high school. Probably 5 times in the last 16 years. No matter really. He was still my grandpa and now he is gone too. Ugh. Just another piece of my life gone. It makes me sad. It makes me think of losing my dad last year. It makes me think of losing my mom this year. It is going to be a rough holiday season.....
