Back to real life after our lovely five hours out alone without children last night: illness strikes again!
John has thrown up six times this morning (and is now asleep, as above, in his little nest on the couch). I've set up camp in the den and am making fabulous progress catching up on correspondence, items I've been meaning to order online, and paperwork tasks that have been building up for month. I am "interrupted" (called to duty, really) only when John throws up or I need to change a load of the resulting laundry.
Now I'm starting to feel queasy, which I hope is psychosomatic, but I'll know soon for sure . . . . There go our weekend plans!
Sometimes canceling weekend plans is JUST THE THING.
ReplyDeleteHope John feels better soon and doesn't attract any company in illness.
poor kiddo. at least he has the "puke bowl" concept down... that's a plus. Took my kids a while to get that one. I've escaped our family plague thusfar... last puking episode was Thursday :P, good luck. I hope you are not ill.
ReplyDeleteI saw Chris alone with Mary at Mass this morning and wondered whether you were home with a sick John...I'm so sorry my suspicion was correct! I smiled when I watched Chris lay Mary down sleeping in the pew after Communion. :)
ReplyDeleteFrances: Thank you! John felt better after a half day of vomiting yesterday. I still have the cold I've had all week and feel "off," like maybe I'm getting what was ailing John yesterday. So I kept both of us home from Mass.
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry John is sick! I know what you mean , I start feeling queasy after my kids throw up, too. I am so glad my kids don't get sick very often! I think the last time one of the kids threw up was two years ago. I hope you don't get it and John recovers quickly!
