A Day to Recoop
By Moriah on July 29th, 2009
Andy had yesterday off so I ran my errands like a crazy person. In the rain.
It hasn’t rained here in a while so the parking lots were all slick and I slipped three different times. Small cut on my knee, larger one on my toe, and ripped part of my toenail off. Stupid flip-flops.
Yesterday was a really unusual day, though – first one of our friends was in a motorcycle accident on the interstate and is lucky (what are we Calvinists supposed to say?) to be alive. Miraculously all that happened is he broke his shoulder and is pretty banged up. My toe? Is nothing.
And then poor Adelaide threw up her entire dinner all over her bed. She was such a sport, sat herself up and waited patiently for me to first hear her crying and then come and clean her up. She had a fever also so I’m really hoping the rest of us manage to stay well.
At any rate, we’re not going anywhere today (even though this morning she’s fever-free and acting normal).
Hope y’all have a good Wednesday!

Sounds like a good day to STAY HOME! Do you ever feel like the winds of chaos are blowing a little strong, and it’s time to lie low?
man, we’ve all got snotty noses here! Haven’t checked our temps….but we’re ok as long as there is no throw up.
hugs!! nurse that toe and hope the whole family stays well after last nights woozy!
oh, and my husband can defend the use of the work “lucky” like a calvinistic champion! :)
Oy…isn’t that just kids for ya? Sick as dogs one minute, and “miraculously” running around like heathens the next? ;-)
I ran errands in flip flops yesterday too, a few slips, but no major injuries.
I lost my toenail once. Very weird not having it.
Sorry about all your slippin’ down. I am pretty much off balance day in and day out! :)
We just got over the stomach stuff around here! Hope you can get through it w/out catching it!!
