We're off to Rauma to have dinner and some craft time with
pierydys, who is rapidly descending into the one-month-till-big-day Wedding Countdown spiral, yet keeping it all together admirably well. We missed the window for labelling jam jars, but should be in time to make a lot of origami cranes.
As for the little niece, she had a spinal tap yesterday that was tough only for her parents. She got the good drugs, watched a Hello Kitty video and tried to eat the television, and the results of the tests were positive/as hoped-for: it's Lyme disease! Which is not too dangerous for small children apparently because their brains are still growing or something and it could've included encephalitis or meningitis. She's supposed to be going home today and will have a week off from daycare.
