Random thoughts from an exhausted person...

I guess it was a good thing we didn't go to my parent's house.  Ian got a stomach bug last night and threw up every 1/2 hour from 7pm-4am.  Poor kid.  Personally, I will never be able to eat Beef Stick again.  It was just NASTY to clean up.  I love that aspect of being a mom.  He hasn't really eaten or drank much all day, but is feeling a bit better now that is he not vomiting.  I am crossing my fingers and toes hoping no one else gets the vomit bug.  Lily & I still have a cold.  I was starting to feel better yesterday...I found the energy to take down all of my Christmas decorations, shovel twice, clean out my coat closet and organize my bench (where we store hats & mittens).  But, with no sleep my cold is back with a vengeance today.  I am definitely going to bed early.

On a happier note, I am taking part in this year's One World, One Heart Event.  I had so much fun last year meeting new blogging friends...and having the chance to win some beautiful things.  I won a couple last year and LOVE the items I won.  You can read more about this event here or click the button below.  Not sure what I will be giving away this year though.  Maybe another necklace?  Any color ideas you would like to see in a necklace?  Are you going to join the Magic Carpet this year?  Speaking of giveaways, Laura won the winter scene pin set.  Laura has a shop on etsy...this giraffe key fob is cute.

I tried to upload a couple pictures, but blogger is being a stinker.  I am off to bed.

stomach viruses are the WORST!! I hope it is just a 24 hr bug! Popsicles always makes mine feel better, while giving just enough fluids! Hope you all feel better soon! YAY! for getting your Christmas stuff down!

So so sorry to hear all this... I hope you all start feeling better soon. I know a little how you feel... I got the bug Sunday at 3 in the morning and then K came home early from school with the same bug... no fun I tell you....

I hate it when my kids throw up! Not just because I have to clean up the mess, but also because it makes me feel so helpless!

Hope he feels better!

I hope you guys are feeling beter now and that no one else caught the bug.

This Magic Carpet thing is a cool idea. I think I might give this a go this year.
