By a vomiting child. At least this time they made it to the bathroom prior to expelling the contents of their guts. Hit the floor, the wall trim, the door, toilet exterior and inside the toilet too. Bath mats were afflicted by splash back and over spray aswell. Easy clean up this time around, thankfully. Tile is much nicer to me in the wee hours of the night, as compared to shag carpet or fuzzy deep tuft floor rugs, mattresses, duvets & pillows. A win for me!
Today everyone is home from school, as we can’t send pukey children and siblings to school. So card games, puppet shows, board games and movies abound! I had other plans for today, but I got my work finished ahead of schedule, and I need some stress free time away from a computer. So I plugged into my phone to write about it! Ha. People, so silly.
On a high note, it is Friday, it is now March. The sun sets a little later, the sky is blue, and the sun is shining. Hope to start Maple Syruping in the coming weeks, which means fresh air, manning the fire under the evaporator, and hauling sap out of the woods. My eldest loves to pull the ice out of the buckets, which helps reduce the amount of water to boil off the sap, thus taking slightly less time to complete the forty to one reduction of sap to syrup. We don’t get involved in the filtration and final boil portion of the syrup schtick. I do bulk work, and leave the finesse stuff to our resident experts. If I remember to, I’ll do up a devoted post about it, with some photos and insight into (what I know of) the process.



All the best to you out there!
