Jan 24
So, this weekend was pretty rough. It started out promisingly enough. The 8yo was sleeping over at Aunty's house with the cousins. We had a soccer game to go to and karate practice to attend. Sunday stretched ahead without any real plans.
All that came to a halt when the 4yo got food poisoning from some fried saimin that had probably been sitting too long in a warmer. Poor little guy could not hold down a thing...not even water. His Friday night and Saturday were spent either napping or in the bathroom.
Unfortunately, I did not escape food poisoning either. By late morning on Saturday, I was in the worst shape I'd been in in a long time.
But all's well that ends well. I'm thankful to my brother and sister in law who kept the 8yo an additional night. I'm thankful that the 4yo bounced back fairly quickly. I'm thankful that food poisoning has a shelf life of about 24-48 hours.
And I'm really thankful that my kiddos were happy to see each other on Sunday and played quietly so that I could rest a few more hours!
Our weekends...never a dull moment to be had.
Poisoned!
