The last 24 hours or so, in summary...

Yesterday afternoon, I finished cleaning up from Thanksgiving then got my Christmas decorations out of storage and started putting stuff out. The boys mostly watched TV and my sister and mom worked on a jigsaw puzzle. We all ate a whole lotta leftovers for both lunch and dinner.

In the evening, we went to see Portland's Singing Christmas Tree. It was at the Keller Auditorium in downtown Portland. The singing and music were wonderful. It lasted a bit longer than we were expecting. We didn't get home until almost 2300.

My sister and BIL had a very early flight this morning. We all got up at 0400 and they were out the door at 0430. My BIL rented the van for this week, so they drove themselves back to the airport. They should be getting home anytime now.

After they left, Mr Moo and I went back to bed for a few hours. I woke up just before 1000 and was dismayed to discover I had a screaming headache which quickly turned into a migraine. I tried some ibuprofen and caffeine, but they didn't work. I took one of my prescription pills and laid down again. I should have eaten something first because it upset my stomach and I eventually threw it up. Wonderful. I managed to get back to sleep for a few hours, which helped a bit. Mr Moo got me something to eat and I took another half tablet, which seems to have done the trick. The day is almost over, but I'm feeling much better now.

While I was lying in bed in a coma, Mr Moo called my parents at the hotel to invite them to lunch, but they declined. My dad wants to watch the Oregon State vs. University of Oregon football game today, so we'll be going to get them soon since that starts in about an hour. I'll probably help my mom finish the jigsaw puzzle and continue working on my Christmas decorations.

And that, my friends, is pretty much where we're at.
