This weekend was a busy but mostly good one. The bad part is my foster kitten was noticeably less active than the day before so I took her in to the vet and they are keeping her for the time being. Her littermate died of FIP we we are crossing our fingers for little Frankie Frappuchino.
The good parts though: My great-aunt Louise is turning 80 this week and we had a surprise party for her on Saturday. She has NEVER had a birthday party and was genuinely surprised and very pleased over the party in her honor. In attendance were her son, a first cousin she grew up with and is very close with still, and multiple nieces/nephews, great-nieces/nephews, and one great-great nephew. She is the last of my paternal grandfather's siblings. Living in the same area as the past few generations of both sides of your family has big advantages, and one is that I got to know most of my great-aunts and uncles and multiple cousins.
Sunday we drove to the next county over and saw the new Star Wars movie. What did I think about it? Eh. My husband said it was basically the same storyline as the others, and I agree. We had lunch out at Qdoba (veggie burrito and tortilla soup-yum) and shopped at Kroger. Doesn't sound very exciting but it was time with just the two of us and we enjoyed it because of that. It was freezing, with a "feels like" of 9°. This is our typical weather this time of year, but I guess because we had a much warmer December it just feels extra bitter right now.
