Sick & Sunny Day
I woke up this morning and was delighted when I realized that I was going to experience our second -- yes, SECOND! -- day of sunshine in Washingstone this year! My DS and I watched some TV and prepared oatmeal for the girls while we laid plans for our glorious day.
And then, against all odds, DS turned out to be quite sick. The poor guy had trouble keeping any food down, so instead of the afore-planned day outdoors we hung out and watched more shows, hoping to get the little guy feeling like a winner again (and intermittantly cleaning up his inability to hold down so much as a glass of water). In the midst of this, our durned dog made a run for it while my DW was off at the store getting food supplies for dinner, so my DD and I took turns trying to the fetch said canine while the other stayed with the ittle boy. Luckily, my DD found success and returned the dog home; I, on the other hand, only got a faceful of gravel, two scraped hands and what I believe is a disloctaed right thumb. Oh, the joy!
But the day was actually pretty good. The little man sat with me and we surfed Youtube for a while, and he seemed to be feeling almost up to specs by the time he went to bed. The Wife made some truly fantastic homemade chicken noodle soup and brought home some fun shows from the library. And my DD, having finally re-acquired her DVD player after nearly two months of being grounded, has once again vanished into the black pit known as "her room".
Among the many, many, many kid-friendly videos that my son and I watched on Youtube, we managed to stumble across this:
I remember waiting around on Saturday mornings with a blank tape in the VCR ready to tape this one if it ever came on during Saturday Morning Cartoons...and now, finally, after over twenty years, the wait is over. Ain't technology great?
