OH POOP!!


Yesterday was the only day that kids in the valley had a full day of school, it just so happened to be the day I was scheduled to sub!! Bummer for me!! Joya loves these days because she gets to spend the day with either my dad or my mother-in-law. Yesterday she was with my dad, who she calls Papa. So while she had a special day with Papa and I was at work, Toby was at home. This is when the oh poop comes in. Toby got into something, I still have no clue what, and he had puked and had diarrhea all over our house. Our room was completely destroyed with dia all over the floor, clothes on the floor, puke on the bed, and on the floor. The front room had a few majorly large spots but he contained it to our room. Joya and I got home around 4 and smelt and saw the mess. I put Toby out and when he came back in he had blood on his hind leg hair from the dia. He then went and hid int he house. I cleaned the house until 7pm. not including doing laundry all night!! I thought Toby was dying!! They say dogs will retreat and hide when they are dying, so I naturally thought that. I was crying and called Tim, he thought Toby was already dead when I called but the mess and Toby being sick was very overwhelming to come home to after a full day of work. And yes I am complaining about a full day of work, even though it is only one day a week. I do not know how working moms do it!! I am not cut out for working out of the home with babies at home!!! I love being at home with Joya and I am so tired after teaching for 6 hours!!! Yes I am a wimp!!

I went to bed early and woke up with 2-3 inches of snow. We all got dressed in warm clothes and went out to make a snowman. Unfortunately the snow was not good packing snow, but great snow fro Joya to walk in and eat!! That's right all she wanted to do was eat the white fluffy snow!! We stayed out for a while and then Tim said I wish we could take her sledding. I said lets put her on the snow shovel. So that's what we did, she loved it, we went around all house!! She loved it, even the falling off part!

Here is her pic.

So ... how is Toby? You didn't relly finish that part of the story - or maybe I just missed it?
