My New Year's "Rockin" Eve

Had an invite to 3 different get-togethers. Had a babysitter for the whole night; Savannah was spending the night with grandma. Had a cute new shirt to wear. Yep, I was excited and looking forward to the evening...until about 4:00 a.m. Wednesday morning. That began onset of vomiting and diarrhea for me. So, needless to say, the only thing "rockin" on New Year's were my insides.
Additionally, Savannah's cold has gotten much worse. She's had fever and her cough sounds like the sea lions at the zoo. She did end up staying at grandma's anyway, so I got a break and Steve went to one of the parties. I didn't care. I couldn't go so why should he be stuck home with me?
It was kinda funny- he called around 6:30 or so to say my brother was stopping by the house to get more beer and a meat thermometer (they were cooking bar-b-que). I was so out of it, I could barely drag myself out of bed and when I did I thought he wanted the rain gage (?). My brother returned to the party and told everyone I looked like death warmed over. Nice.
So, I am better today, but not 100%. Savannah is still struggling. Maybe another day on the meds and some rest will do the trick.
Here's hoping your New Year's was better than mine...that's a no-brainer, right?

Belated Merry christmas to you! I am glad you had a wonderful morning! My little one got bath toys also, and that has made bath time much more pleasant. Sorry to hear that the only bubbly was in your tummy! That's no fun. Haven't been around much because of the holdiays, but am trying to play catch up now. Hope you're doing better!
