It was a rough week, especially when I got a call on Wednesday night from Ben to let me know that he was on his way to Urgent Care because he had fever and chills. They gave him antibiotics and sent him home at midnight. He went back on Friday because the bacterial infection that he had wasn't responding to the antibiotic they were giving him. They put him on IV fluids and a stronger antibiotic and kept him overnight for observation. I went up to sit with him for a while that night. They kept him on Saturday and he was finally released late in the afternoon.
I knew that Jill would have her hands full, so I offered to make Ham and Potato Soup to deliver for the family that night. Needless to say, it was much appreciated.
Jill made reservations for Mother's Day Brunch at Olivia's Organic Restaurant and the food was delicious as always. I went back home, took a nap, and then met up with Ben for a walk around Staring Lake. It was the first time I have done a 2-mile walk in ages. I was tired toward the end but made it and felt good for doing it.
The company that owns my community is having a Heart and Sole competition over the next 3 months, asking residents to track their steps and report them. I made 51,899 steps this week.
