We are only a few daytime hours into November and we can already tell it's going to be a great month! En route to a birthday party this morning, Nory threw up all over the car. ALL......OVER......THE......CAR. We were 5 minutes from the venue when it struck and Phil had to make a quick turn off the highway so that we (but mostly ME) could get things cleaned up. You see, Phil was significantly grossed out when he opened the door to the backseat that he almost started vomiting too (it was dry-heave, walk-away-from-vehicle CENTRAL). So there we were - one of us almost puking, one of us finished puking, and one of us cleaning up the puke whilst laughing at the person who might start puking next. It was great fun! P.S. Laughing in such situations NEVER, EVER helps the situation. I really should take my own advice.
Once semi-organized, we decided it was best to turn around and come home for two reasons. Number one - we didn't want to get any of the party attendees sick if Nory was carrying some bug. Number two (and most importantly to Phil) - we didn't want the vomit to bake in the car at 30 degrees Celsius while we attended the festivities.
Now we're back at square one! Nory is napping, Phil headed back to school for the volleyball tournament and I'm having a decaf coffee while intermittently scrubbing my hands to rid myself of that awful, awful BILE smell. Maybe I'm just paranoid. Maybe my senses are playing tricks on me. Or maybe I had to sit in the back seat of a vomit-covered car and with a previously-covered-in-vomit baby for 30 minutes. Either way, the hand scrubbing will continue until I stop smelling GROSSNESS.
Moving forward, we have a new rule in the Parkinson house: EVERYONE MUST EAT CANDY ON HALLOWEEN. Small children included! The poor girl hasn't even had a single TREAT from her Halloween stash yet and she's already sick :$ This could be proof that there's something to going ALL-OUT on sweets every October 31st!!!!
Happy November, EVERYONE! Wishing you a happy month of Christmas shopping, Christmas baking, and Christmas decorating. (Yes, I know it's November. And yes, my wishes to you REMAIN!!!!)
