Caught a Bug

It bothers me when people apologize for not posting on their blog a certain amount of time.  Really people?  It's your blog--it's like you are apologizing for being you.  So, I'm not going to apologize for not posting in over a week--but I will tell you what I've been up to for the last week.

Last Wednesday my little princess turned 4.  We had a great costume party, ate lunch with Grandma & Papa & went to Red Robin for dinner.  It was a great day--one of those days that you know that your kids know how much they are loved.  At 2 the next morning mom and princess were sharing the bathroom--one to get a bath after throwing up all over herself and the bed, the other not able to get off the pot.  Thank goodness my husband loves me--he spent 2 1/2 hours cleaning up the bedroom and starting loads of laundry.  He really should have been cursing my name because I didn't put the waterproof pad back on the bed after washing it. 
I spent most of Thursday on the couch, recliner or bed.  My hubby stayed home and made sure I was hydrated.
Friday started out great.  I was feeling better, not good enough to exercise, but good enough to start deep cleaning my house.  Not only did I feel like my house had a sick bug in it I had 20 people coming over for Easter brunch.  All was going well until the phone rang and my husbands co-worker informed me hubby was on the way home and to just unlock the front door.  Good thing I hadn't started dinner.  So he spent the rest of the night and part of Saturday not far from a bathroom.  My in-laws both came down with the bug, so I trooped over there with kids, Gatorade & saltines.  They were out and in desperate need.
Saturday we cleaned and scrubbed and aired out the house.  I had officially caught the spring cleaning bug.  It was great, I was super focused and cleaned the house top to bottom.  Easter brunch was great, no one yet has reported ill. 
Monday after Easter we woke up to a skiff of snow--which for some reason made me excited.  I continued to clean my home.  Organizing drawers, closets and cupboards and my sewing room.

 (These things will always be on the floor in my sewing room)

It is Thursday now and I feel another bug coming on.  Now that my house is clean, I want to sew--it's a sewing bug.

 Here's a pile of clothes to be refashioned--found by cleaning my closet.

Here's a sneak peek of my current project.
