Party was a success!

Saturday was a mega-busy day. It started with getting up early and cleaning up around the house and then going to pick up supplies for the party, and then to the grocery store to pick up food and the cake I had ordered. I wanted to be back to the house at 11 (the party started at 1). We had a few extra minutes, so I wanted to stop by the party supply store for some balloons, and you wouldn’t believe how hard it is to find grad stuff at this time of year! The lady at the party supply store said they have all their grad stuff in storage, but she was able to dig some “congrats” balloons out of the back room, so we got some of those. They looked really good. CT found some banners to put up, so the place looked good. By the time we got home and had all the food prepared, we only had a few minutes before people started arriving.

The party went really well. My mom was surprised. All I told her was “come to my house at 1:00 and wear something nice”. She thought maybe I was hosting a little lunch with the family or something, she had no idea I invited all her friends. Being host to a large party like that was hard work though! I didn’t have time to eat or sit down until it was almost over. That’s okay though. I was really pleased with how it worked out. I was so exhausted afterwards though!

I think I was all wired from the party or something because I then couldn’t sleep on Saturday night. I woke up on Sunday morning feeling nauseous (and I rarely feel nauseous) and just generally felt like crap. I have no idea what it was. I still managed to go to CT’s parents house for a visit, but they could pick up on the fact that I wasn’t feeling well, so we didn’t stay too long. I woke up feeling a little better today.

Hope everyone has a great week!
