A Day to Remember

6am--Startled awake by a little toe-head face saying "Make Waffles, mum!"
6:15am --Make batter, waffle, add syrup, cut to appropriate size....Nate eats 3 bites...I proceed to eat 3 waffles.
7am--Kailee awakes with gummy eyes and cries when I try to wipe them out....at this point I am thinking bad chlorine eyes from previous night swimming.
7:30am--Off to the YMCA for mom exercise time.
8:10am--after a 15 minute cry fest about being "on Ka-Ke side" of the child care area and refusing to wear his shoes (required)...we leave...no exercise. Mom....disappointed.
8:20am--pick up form to take to DR office for Kailee's preschool==saying she has no history of communicable disease and has had her shots.
8:25am--Nate cries all the way to Wal-Mart...he wants to sit in Kailee's car seat and not his own
9:30am--Walmart. Kailee continually rubs in Nate's face that he does not get to swim beacuse he did not go to school.
10am --drive to swim lessons for Kailee at our neighborhood pool...where Nate is not allowed to swim.
10:30am--Nate falls in adult swim pool while walking around the edge saying "swim, swim".
10:31am--Nate sitting in towel naked, waiting for swim lessons to be over.
11am--Home.
2:30pm--Kailee plays computer and comes over with gummy stuff...runny down her cheeks...
2:35pm--Tearful and challenging rinse of eyes with Saline...holding her down...arms and legs.
2:35pm--I call the dr to get advise and she gives us pink eye drop to pick up
3:30pm--Kailee wakes from 1/2 nap with 102 fever, stomach ache and headache...OUCH.
4:15pm--headed to Dr office...Nate refuses to leave Kailee alone...playing "I'm not touching you" the whole way there. Kailee "I don't have to have a shot do I?"...tears....
5:15p--Done with dr....rapid strep negative....popsicle, form signed and back to me for school...and a dose of Motrin.
5:30p--pick up take out
5:45pm--Tearful and challenging bought with eye drops.
7:30p--kids up to brush teeth
7:35p-I jump unto the bed and put my hand in something wet.."I forgot to tell you I peed in the bed this AM..."
9:45p--BED.
10:30--Using the carpet cleaner to suck water out of the downstairs carpet...and scoop put sump hole with a bucket.
11p--lay down in bad a realize I should check on my sisters house 2 miles away...they are out of town..
11:30p--return from sister's house...all is well..except for 12-18" drifts of hail by all the storm drains and winter driving conditions....

Let's try that again.
