I got a message from Yvonne on Thursday morning asking if she and her friend could come stay here for a few nights - they got a room at a hotel and it was awful... guess Chateau Zaplitny was a better option! They moved in Thursday afternoon. Getting ready for them was a bit painful as I was still under the weather (only worked a half day Thursday) but I cleaned the essential stuff and left the rest :) Martha Stewart would be horrified! Ha!
They were great company though - wonderful to sit and chat with, and oh so helpful with everything around the house. Unexpected company can sometimes be the best company, hey?
Thursday night I was in bed before 8pm. Sure didn't bode well for New Year's Eve...
I worked another half day on Friday, we had champagne at work and I couldn't even go near it as my stomach was still off. There was lots of bubble fun on Friday afternoon as I got supper ready.
Jess, Ben and Hunter joined Yvonne, Tracy and I that night. The whole supper thing is noteworthy as it was the first real food I'd eaten since Tues night!!! The Babbs brought AK's Christmas presents over - a book about Chloe the malamute, a Dora floor mat and Dora PJs! We headed out after supper to see the fireworks at Camana Bay, a perfect family New Year's celebration. AK was in bed just before 10pm(!) and I followed at 11pm. Not a shabby way to ring in the New Year! xo
