Not what I needed
I'm typically a positive person I've even been called a Pollyanna on occasion. So I don't typically sit about think, gee, how could things be worse? What stuff would I really rather not have happen right now?
However, if I were of that sort, and had a "things I'd rather avoid during the last couple weeks of a pregnancy" list, here's something that would be on it: the family getting a stomach bug. Tuesday, Mairi and I were ill. Wednesday was quiet, as she and I recovered and I hoped no one else would get sick.
Last night, Mairi got sick again and that was more than Chris, who'd been feeling iffy, could handle. All of which woke Nora, who being three and not sick, decided there was no reason not to play since she was awake anyway. None of us got much sleep.
I'm really hoping tonight is a quiet night...
P.S. Baby is fine, but hasn't given any indication she's arriving sooner rather than later. In other words, still waiting.
