Unexpected

I had yesterday all planned. I spent the morning cleaning the house so that the evening could be spent doing dinner with an online friend and his family. All went well, until about 20 minutes after their arrival when Patches threw up.

The guests decided to stay and risk exposure. I quarantined Patches to his bedroom where he slept when not actually vomiting. The dinner and visiting seemed to go fairly well. I know I had fun, I just wish my attention had been a little less split. I also hope that their family failed to take the bug home with them. It frustrates me to provide a vector for unpleasant bugs.

Patches was sick all night. I slept on a mat near his bed. By morning I wasn’t feeling well either. Fortunately in my case some extra sleep in my own bed and a light lunch have remedied most of that.

In other news: Zathura is a good movie for kids. My kids were enthralled and have just embarked on a second veiwing. Maybe I’ll go sneak and have a bath while they’re busy.
