Poor little birthday girl

She fell asleep last night around 6 and slept until 6 this morning. Hubby brought her into our room this morning and I lay down with her and she fell asleep in about 2 nano seconds. About a half hour later she woke up and puked all over herself, me and the bed. Poor baby. She puked a few more times this morning and then ate some crackers and some cheerios (no milk). So is clammy but not feverish and sweaty like she has been so that's somewhat a good sign. Hubby skipped work today so he's out playing with Z, poor kid has been stuck in the house with her sick sister for two days. We're supposed to have family over tomorrow for a b'day party. I think we'll skip dinner and just do cake and ice cream and presents then send everyone on their merry way so L doesn't over do it. What a stinker, being sick on your fourth birthday on a beautiful sunny July day. Blech!!

Hubby has to go to a wake later this afternoon and then the funeral is in the morning so he'll probably stay over at his parent's house tonight because it's kind of a long drive to do back and forth tonight and then tomorrow. It's for a guy he graduated high school with and they worked together on the fire dept in their home town. He was a ripe old 32. Hubby is more freaked out by his death than saddened. Not that he isn't sad but you know what I mean. It scares him that someone so young and otherwise healthy can just drop dead from a pre-existing heart condition that no one knew about. This guy was known for doing the occasional recreational drug or two from time to time so it doesn't take a genius to figure out what may have happened. Someone with a faulty ticker snorts a little coke and well, you know what can happen there. Thankfully he didn't have any children. Well I don't know if that really is a good thing. That means the poor guy never got to experience the overwhelming joys of fatherhood. Either way you look at it, it sucks, just plain sucks.
