Big was rather copiously sick last night. Bless her, she tried to get to the bathroom, which meant that she redecorated her room, the landing and the bathroom as well. 🙁
And while I was clearing up, Small woke up screaming (he’d gone to bed before 8 – I didn’t know what to do with myself!) so dp had to cope with him while I finished the disinfecting.
Big seems fine this morning – came bouncing in as soon as Small grunted, which meant he woke up properly immediately instead of dozing for another half hour as he probably would if left to his own devices. Ah well. The sun is shining and I have quite a lot of washing, washing up, and carpet cleaning to be getting on with. Shall I turn my machine off and see how much I can achieve without it?
Should note that after Small went to sleep I mowed the lawn – now I know why they tell you to leave it a bit longer to save on water – it was soggy even after a full day of sun! But it needed cutting – the dock leaves were getting seriously out of hand. I then spend the evening trying to sign up for some paid survey work and so on online – sometime while sleepless in the night it occurred to me that being paid $3 for a survey that takes 15 minutes is not going to pay the bills and instead I’d better get my business organised. Amazing what epiphanies occur in the middle of the night, isn’t it?

Hugs to Big, and you for having to clear up, you have my complete and utter sympathies. Hope that’s the end of it and that you have a productive day today.
Gulp… please be better before arrival – if there is one thing guaranteed to put me in hospital while pregnant, its a nasty tummy bug! 2 out of 3 times sofar and only will power kept me out the third time!!!!
Merry, I wouldn’t dream of bringing sick children to stay – don’t worry, I would cancel instead. Do you want to drop me a line with your phone number (don’t think I have it) and I can call you in the morning?
Lol – well i hope you are all better – vomit is horrible for everyone – have emailed you anyway!
Lol – i think Moo impressed me most when she was sick the other week – she got it all over the kitchen, all over me and even in the back of her hair!
Jax – talk about a bad week – so sorry Big is not well hope she is better for your visit.
