We have a Visitor

Not a welcome one either. The stomach bug. That is part of the reason I have not been around this week. The Cat got it on Saturday. I thought the rest of us were in the clear until last night. The Bear got it. Poor little thing. First pneumonia then the stomach flu. She just can't win.

You know what that means? Yep I am a shoe in. I so am not looking forward to my certain date with the toilet. Mr. Man just left for a week so I think the children will be having a 24 hours of tv in the near future (minus sleep). Who am I kidding? Even if Mr. Man was here they would be having adequate time in front of the tv while I am hugging my date.

So today I watch Jungle Book 2 next to the Bear so she will rest and not follow me around. I think we will take a nap. I am a little exhausted - with every move I shot up in bed last night to hold her bowl. Oh how I wish there was something I could do to ward this thing off.

Any ideas? I could use some. I hate the stomach bug. A Lot!

You would think that us moms would be used to throwing up. I mean if you add up all the times I have hugged that toilet for either pregnancy or flu - we are talking over a year of throwing up. YUCK!

Oh happy day.

Are You Having a Bad Day?

So the other day I thought that I was having a pretty rotten day until my friend texted this text:

Today the boy has smeared poop on himself, my bed, some toys, and the toilet. He has poked me with a sharp object and has THROWN spaghetti with sauce ALL OVER my kitchen! I'm going to lose my mind!! HELP.

My day was suddenly looking up!

So this morning after a total of 3 hours of sleep between horrible anxiety and the YP not sleeping, she has a tooth coming in and was inconsolable all night. The hubs is away on a trip and the dogs got up at 5 ( i went to bed at 3), I broke the coffee pot and the paper towel dispenser, the Basset Hound PEED on my couch and I got a visitor (hence the anxiety) after a three month hiatus, and we are out of milk {which is more traumatic then you think}. All this before 9 am. So I opened my phone and read that message again and reminded myself that in comparison my day was still pretty good.

So if you are having a rotten day today or any day just remember it could be worse - you could have poop on your pillow and spaghetti in your hair!

Have a great day! I am off to take a Basset hound to the taxidermist. {Just Kidding}
