Day Five Happy - Um...

[byslantedlight]

I had such plans for a nice day today. R would be at school and then she was going on a playdate, so when A woke from her nap I was going to take her to a playground where she could play without R taking things over. We'd have dinner, then pick up R, and go home to a quiet evening of CBeebies, cos Mum was going to be late home and a long day for us all - it'd been a second early start this week too.

So R slumped around as she often does, but finally managed to get dressed and ready - and then promptly puked all over the stairs. Yup, the carpeted stairs. Alot. *sighs* Nothing serious (which is good, obviously), it's a cyclical vomiting thing rather than a virus or anything, but... vomit. No school. No playdate. No extra time for A. And because R is just wiped out around the vomiting, CBeebies was on sooner and for a long time rather than for a final treat... Oh, and no break at A's naptime either, cos R is there... *headdesk*

It actually worked out better than it could have - Mrs came home to watch R while I took A to her music class, so A got a little bit of time where she was the focus, and R actually napped a bit while A was napping, so I managed a little bit of a break. I didn't go outside and take a photo though, so... what was my happy?

Well, taking fifteen minutes of that dual nap time to read more Death at Fountains Abbey - and coming home and looking around for photo inspiration, and being surrounded by books to read. So yeay. Happiness is a good book, and many more books to come!
