Day 206 - Sick Day

Henry is doing what most people like to do on a sick day... curling up on his couch by the window, reading a few picture books in the winter sunshine. A cold and conjunctivitis kept him (and me) home today for the second time in a few weeks. I have to say though, that although I had to run about finding him fresh tissues all day he was fairly much his usual self today. We watched a lot of Sesame Street (remember the "12" song? Saw the new version today... not as good!), had a very long lunch,  had a short sleep, read books, went outside for a bit and lastly went to see Dale at work, so that Henry could go home with his Daddy and I could get over to my 5.30 pilates. Exhausted by his day, Henry was in bed by 8.15.

Day 183 - A Sick Day

Poor Henry was a little miserable today. I caught him in a quiet moment watching some tv with Little Ted in the picture, but on the whole, he was one unhappy chappy! After a visit to the doctor this afternoon, we had a very painful visit to the supermarket and chemist which included Henry throwing away all the grocery money, waving a $50 note around and then having a very spontaneous nosebleed resulting in half a used up box of tissues and me driving home with blood on my hands, clothes and shoes and Henry with it spattered all over his clothes. What a sight we must have looked!
