Down and Out

On Friday morning it felt like I had drank a little too much the night before. I hadn’t though, not at all. Maybe it was something I ate then that was throwing my system off. I thought about it a little more and after lunch, that I didn’t even feel like eating I finally admitted that I was sick. I obviously had caught whatever the heck my kids had last Tuesday. My body tends to kick into fever mode whenever something is awry and for the rest of the afternoon I was a waste of skin.

With the carrot of being able to swim in the pool the kids spent the afternoon cleaning their mom’s apartment. By the time I arrived, it was time for them to hit the pool. I sooo didn’t feel like hitting the pool. I dozed in the shade, since mom “was too tired” to take them, the sun was way too hot but I was borderline cold in the shade. Stupid fevers.

Anyhoo, I told the kids they would be on their own for the most part and I lay down on the couch. After about 15 hours of heavily interrupted sleep, I feel much better. Good thing, my nephew was at my door at 8:00 AM so I could watch him for the day.

We picked up two more hamsters to replace our recently deceased one and the kids are really happy with them. One is really nice, the other not so.

I have a farm uh I mean a house to clean so I’ll get back to you all later.
