Pardon the Interuption...

I usually try to celebrate life in a manner that would show its enjoyable side. The laughter, and glee that comes with those blessed moments, but today I have to show its ugly side.
I didn't sleep much last night, and today was going to be busy. Then it snowed, most plans have cancelled so I do what I do when I stay home ALL DAY LONG: I clean. So I began my laundry, the whites to be exact. I start to pull the clothes out and dump them into the washing machine, and the smell is getting worse. Not your typical dirty laundry smell but this odor that is sickly. Then I pick up my husbands shirt to see that it's left shoulder is covered in.....wait for it, puke! Yup, my three year old a day or two after Christmas threw up one night and part of it got on my dear husband. We soothed the babe and I cleaned my floor (at midnight) while my husband changed his night shirt. I THOUGHT he'd clean him self up. Um.........no it was crusty, dried puke that was stiff on the shirt. Awesome.
I threw it in the washing machine and hoped Billy Mayes would keep his promise and save my husbands white shirt. 20 mins later it came out spotless. I love you Oxyclean, you are my hero of the day.
Now back to our regularly schedule program......

Billy Mays didn't come through for a poop covered changing cloth of Addison's. :( Could be that it sat for 3 days untouched before I attempted the stain removal. (Did I mention she had major blowouts consecutively all last week?) Lol - good to hear you had better success than I.

Gag . . . is there really anything worse than puke? Glad it all had a happy ending. I've been catching up on your posts back through Christmas and Thanksgiving and feeling enchanted by your cute family, as alwsys. One of these days I'll actually update my blog. Love, Sandra

What are you gonna do with that Bradford? Sorry Brady was sick - no fun. And I love the Christmas pics!

I'm jealous that school got cancelled up there for 2 days! It's freakin freezing here, but no precip. Boooo.
