A VeryRough Night

It was a pretty rough night.  We had not gotten to sleep at all by 1am and about then we started throwing up.  It hurt to even lay down.  Then about 3am it was throwing up and diarrhea at the same time – that lasted until about 4am when finally it seemed we were going to be able to get some sleep.  But no, that could not happen as that’s when the turmoil outside the door started and has been so loud that even now, at 8am, we can’t get some sleep.

I know you are probably saying “poor little Rebekah” but I haven’t even heard from them yet this morning.  This was just daddy.  I think I ate WAY too much of a lot of rich food that was brought to us yesterday and had a touch of the flu bug.  And since about 4am they have been trying to take advantage of the “empty” weekend parking lot and blow/vacuum leaves and are still at it.  

I will, however, post an update from over in Rebekah’s room once I get one.  How she slept and her counts this morning are going to be critical as to whether we get to go home today.

I just got over that myself. It isn't pretty. I hope you are feeling better already and get the sleep that you deserve. Rest, rest, rest!
