Obama, Bowling, Puke and Carpet

So the Internet is all a buzz today regarding Obama's remark on the Late Show last night. Rightly so, he made a huge mistake in correlating his poor bowling abilities to the Special Olympics. Our blogger friend Sarah wrote a wonderful letter to the President that sums up how many of us feel today. I am sorely disappointed in our leader and it will take more than a apology via another person to make up for it.

I have my hands full with my own domestic matters today. Eleanor's runny nose and cough caused me enough concern that I took her to the Ped today. She has her very first ear infection. :( Poor thing has just been miserable. After we got home, I sat down to nurse her, she stopped for a sec to cough and coughed so hard she threw up all over herself and me. I have officially been puked on by all of my children. I took her into the bathroom to strip us down for a quick shower and, lucky me, she had the runs too! Ugh! Aidan found it very amusing.

By the way, he is home from school today because last night he had a fever of 101.5 and has started the coughing bit as well. Give Sean a couple days and I am sure he will catch it. Joy!

In the meantime, our carpet installation got delayed a week due to a shipping set back, so I guess it's a good thing I can't get any painting done for a few days while I fight the sickies. Umm, TGIF?

I've twitted Sarah's post - it's awesome. She's my new hero.

I hope the puke stops before the carpet comes. Ugh, bad day.

I hope everyone is feeling better soon and the carpet comes after the puke sotps. Puke is just the pits.

I hope everyone feels better soon! It is so tiring to have sick kids. Good luck!
