Still raining

It rained yesterday. It rained last night. It looks like it is going to rain again today. My patio is beginning to mold. Caleb hasn't played outside in 4 days. Even *I* am beginning to go a little stir crazy. The forecast says that we should have sunny skies by tomorrow but I am not going to hold my breath.

My parents made it to Glacier Nat'l Park during their trip west to Washington. They said it is absolutely beautiful and right now I wish I was with them. I could use a little change in my life.

Caleb was feeling fine yesterday morning so we took him to daycare. I hadn't even made it to work yet when they called to say that he had thrown up poltergeist-style and needed to be picked up. Since Scott was doing something important at work, I turned around and went straight back to the westside. And of course, he was perfectly fine when I got there and was never sick again the whole day. He ate fairly well yesterday, but I made sure to give him only the blandest foods I could find. We took a risk and dropped him off at school again today and so far so good.

I was up WAY too late last night (or should I say this morning) but I really didn't feel like going to sleep. Did some crochet, watched some TV and enjoyed the fact that my kitchen was (mostly) clean. Since I was home two days this week my house actually looks like it wouldn't have to be closed down by the health department. I know that is temporary, but it will be nice while it lasts. The floor still needs to be mopped, but taking care of that, cleaning the bathroom downstairs and doing a little dusting should make the downstairs livable. The upstairs on the other hand....that needs a LOT of work.

I MIGHT get some stuff done this weekend, but at this point I think that is doubtful. Scott is headed up north on Saturday for the Ducks Unlimited event in Oshkosh and Caleb and I are staying home. He has already watched enough TV to last him until he is in kindergarten so I should try to come up with something ELSE for us to do tomorrow. Maybe the zoo....will have to think on that a little.
