CNY Fever

It was a bit busy for me on my first Chinese New Year schedule.  I met a lot of relatives (20+) on the year end dinner gathering.  On First day of year tiger, we went to have vegeterian lunch in Mom’s mom home.  Mom and Dad went to watch a movie in the afternoon while I went to grand mom’s elder sister’s home with grand mom.   We then gathered again for a dinner resturant with other 30+ relatives.  Day 2, we went to Dad’s mom home for ‘open the year’ lunch.  I was asleep when I arrived grand mom’s home at 1pm, and have had a good long sleep for 3 hours.  Original plan was we would visit grand mom’s elder sister home in the later afternoon.  It has been cut short and we went home at around 5pm as I started to have high fever.  This cycle of high fever lasted for 3 days and peaked at 39 degrees celsius on the 2nd day.  My fever forced dad to stay home with me on the 3rd day of year tiger, gave him the chance of winning a bit of money in a new year horse racing bet.
