Bugs...

Of the tummy variety...Poor Orla came down with it all on Friday night (during the night) so we spent Saturday at home. She was only sick 2-3 times, then she was on an empty stomach. We made mum's sugar/salt solution which went down fine. We all got some sleep and got through the day, Orla slept for a lot of it and had an early night. She seemed ok and had 2 number 2's so we thought she was on the mend and that we just had a 24h bug to deal with...but that was not the case as she woke up being sick this morning and did it again a bit later. So back on the fluids and some panadol. She is asleep now and I hope she doesn't wake up vomiting again. She is a good sport though and very chirpy straight after the sick and tears bit. We feel a bit wobbly today too...it's Monday now. Not what we needed or wanted. Guess it may have come from Orla spending 2 days at child care on Wed and Thurs. We were out and about on Friday too...who knows! My bites are still BAD as well. I wake up with a few new ones every day and they itch so badly that of course I end up scratching and "breaking" them...I look like I've been in the jungle for a few months! Not sure where it will all end...may take a pic but it's not a pretty sight so may spare you.

Have uploaded South Africa pics and stuff from our long good bye venture in Sweden and England. They are on our web album now, have a look here: http://picasaweb.google.com/moosecat I still need to tidy up stuff and put in captions etc and we are waiting for more pics but you can still have a look now!

Saw a couple of houses yesterday in the afternoon. One was a possible, needed some work but was roomy and in a quiet street etc. There is one tonight apparently...not sure we can make that one though! Fingers crossed. Need to finalise paperwork for the mortgage bit now so that we are ready to offer when (!) we do see something we like.

Ok think I might go back to bed now!
Love & miss you all!
