Sick Day

Well Saturday didn't go as planned.  Ella was complaining about her stomach ALL day.  She never threw up but she carried a bucket with her wherever she went just in case - she kept saying that she was very close to throwing up but it never happened.  She felt hot but she didn't have a temperature.  I'm hoping tomorrow is better.

Darby was supposed to spend his birthday money today at Wal*Mart but he had so much trouble with it.  In the end I split the cost of Thor with him.  The games he really wants for the Wii are not out yet: W'12 and the new Zelda game.  Of course he does want certain games that mom won't let him have, a-hem, Call of Duty Black Ops, a-hem.

Declan and Darby have gone over to Brett's for the night.  Last night was a big sleepover here: Jonah, Brett, Thein and Austin so I am grateful (and I think Ella is too).  I've learned that one of them snuck a movie over that I wish wasn't watched.  As well the boys watched one of my movies they should not have watched.   I have to try better at staying up later than the kids during sleepovers.  Still, I wonder where the kids got that movie - it is completely inappropriate.  I'm not for censoring at all what the kids watch but if it is a mature themed film I'd rather be there with them to explain things - they waited to I was asleep!  The biggest problem is that Declan is sensitive to scary movies and has nightmares so fortunately it wasn't a horror movie they watched.  Darby's language is improving but he still isn't the angel he once was - that potty mouth demon will be exorcised.  Films with swearing don't help that situation.

I want to try and find "Something Wicked This Way Comes" to watch around Halloween but I think it's unlikely to show up in Powell River.  I'm debating as to whether or not to get it from Amazon.

I hope Ella is better tomorrow.
