Too purty to live in town.....

5/28/07

It's 5:30 am, and I'm awake. I've been up since 4:15 am. No, it wasn't to go fishing or to do the other F word. Those are the only two good reasons to get up this early on a holiday. Joe woke up crying with a stomach ache. I went to him to give him some momma-love. 3 seconds after he sat up in bed the vomiting began. Oh lovely!!! I got him cleaned up and put him in my bed since it's closest to the bathroom. So, I've scrubbed the floors and decided since I was up I may as well make some coffee.

We're supposed to go to a friend's place today, but we'll just have to wait and see. Joe was complaining of belly pain and chills. I finally broke down and gave him 1/2 of a phenergan since I had no pepto in the house and even if I had, he probably wouldn't have taken it. I really hope that this is just a fluke and isn't a stomach flu. Joe's got a field trip tomorrow that I'm supposed to chaperone. I know he'll be very disappointed if he's not able to make it.

I've had a busy couple of days. Saturday I mowed. It took me a while to do because of my hands, not wanting to push myself too hard. I was pretty tired after and ended up going to bed at 8:30 pm.

Yesterday I detailed my car. Washed, waxed, armour all'd, and cleaned windows. It looks sweet! Wore myself out doing that, so I went to bed early again. I guess it was a blessing in disquise seening that I was forced to get up this early this am. Maybe I'll be able to squeeze in a nap later today.

I've been seriously thinking about renting a rug doctor to clean my carpets. I guess the decision has now been made for me.......lol Ok, it's 6 am now and what am I gonna do? I guess I'll catch up on some blogs then maybe I'll finish up laundry and tackle that mountain of ironing waiting for me. Ah, what a glamorous life I lead.........

My quote for today is: The most important work we will ever do takes place within our own home.

Have a wonderful day all, and remember to be thankful for what you got and the price others have paid for you to get it. God bless you and God bless America.
