Under The Weather

The weather's so unpredictable these days. It can be clear and sunny one moment and then start pouring the next. Needless to say me, Hub and the little kiddos have been taking turns falling sick. Now's my turn to look after the others. The worst is of course Niyaz. When he falls sick, we can expect to be cleaning up huge amounts of vomit. Have you ever been vommited on? Well its gross. Even if it's your own darling son. He's done it to me twice. Not the accidentally in your lap kind. The accidentally on your chest and the rest of you kind. Phew! The smell is really something. Especially when you happen to be wearing a pullover kind of shirt. Then the vomit covered shirt has to go over your face before you can take it off. Ewwww ... Do you guys know of any other way to take a shirt off?

Today, My Darling Hub is sick. I must say that he's one of the easiest people to take care of because there's not much taking care to be done. Just let him sleep all day and conduct periodic checks to make sure that he's still breathing and that's all. He's really happy when he gets a whole day of uninterrupted sleep.

It's really sunny today though. Even though nearly everyone is sick and we had to stay home it's nice to be spending time with my family. Just me and the two kiddos. We don't get that enough these days. Even on weekends I'm thinking about work and trying to finish work that I brought home. **Big Sigh** I really envy those people who can just quit and stay home to bring up their children. I really should do some financial planning so that I can take a year off when the kids start going to primary school. That would be really, really lovely.
