fun and games..

We had a great night on saurday night when we went out for dinner and karaoke with some of our friends in kanoya. As I stopped drinking when I got pregnant and only recently started indulging in the odd drink here and there when I know Joey won`t be feeding for a while, it has been about 2 years since I last had a night like Saturday night. I sang my heart out at Karaoke and managed to get the highest score on the machine, which I was strangely proud of!!! Sunday night we had dinner with our friends whose daughter was born 4 days after Joey. The kids were VERY cute together and I will post pictures when I find my camera!! The nightmare started in the middle of the night on sunday when Joey woke up being sick everywhere. Initially I thought it was just because he was coughing and was just throwing up phlegm but as it continued and we had some projectile vomiting incidents and diarrhea, I figured that the poor baby had a stomach bug. The worst of it seemed to be over by mid-morning so we took the opportunity to hurry back to the city. We made it without any problems although Joey was sick again in the evening and still doesn`t have much of an appetited. The REAL fun and games began yesterday morning when I felt sick and spent the whole morning throwing up etc.. I still haven`t been able to eat anything but have managed to keep fluids down since yesterday evening (touch wood) Thank god my MIL was here is all I can say as having to deal with a recovered Joey when I could barely move would have been a nightmare. My lovely husband (NOT!) ignored my pleas for him to come home early after work as I was feeling horrendous still and my poor MIL was very tired as she hadn`t been able to sleep much the night before and had looked after Joey all day, so I thought an extra pair of hands would come in handy. He decided he absolutely had to go to the gym and didn`t come back until 9pm. I was pretty much ready to kill him at that point and then he started to lecture me about how best to stop the bug from spreading when I had beeen sick all day and hadn`t been able to eat anything and was stupidly weak, not one word of sympathy came from his lips and I am SOO pissed of with him. I kind of hope he gets the bug so I can be equally unsympathetic but we all know that as he is a guy, he will behave like a big baby and will act like the world is coming to an end. (Sorry to all my male readers, not that there are many because I am sure some of you don`t act like big babies when you get sick but...) I have been really unimpressed with my husband lately, I thought he would be a kind and caring husband and father but lately he has just been behaving like a self-obsessed wanker.
