While my one of my sisters and her family were cruising the western Caribbean with my parents…having a lovely vacation I imagine…..the MacRoy-Kurlanska’s were having our own heck of a week. And not in a good way. It all started last week after the Red Claws game….Alec had the 24 hour stomach flu (Sunday to Monday) which was not really a surprise because I had walked into daycare to pick him the week before and a young boy his class was barfing. Lovely. Then he got a bruised eye at daycare (Tuesday). We are not sure what happened. The teacher did not see it and Alec did not cry but the best we can glean is that someone tripped and fell into the teeter-totter which came up and hit him in the eye. Just call him bruiser. Erik sprained his ankle (Monday) by missing a step to the garage while taking out the recycling. Bummer- bad things happen while trying to be a good person. That’ll learn ya! Next he got the 24 hour stomach flu (Tuesday to Wednesday) and went on call for the week (Wednesday) which means he had to go into work while while walking around on/in an air cast and finishing up the tail end of the flu. Tail end….if you get my drift….. Me? I got the “24” hour stomach flu on Thanksgiving and it lasted 48 hours…with no relief…..and I am still having my own ‘tail end of it’. And will probably not eat a turkey dinner again for many years.
It was not a pretty week folks.
And here is what happens when mom is down for the count for a couple days…Dad’s amazing ‘dressing’ skillz come out! And yes, they did go out in public like that! What you can’t tell is that these pants (which were Erik’s when he was young) are 100% polyester. Sweet.
And while we are thankful for all the blessings in our life….right now we are just VERY thankful the week is over.
