Day 93

Considering the only 2 places I've been today are bath and bed...I really don't have anything to write about.

I of course had a card from Josh which was very nice. I opened my door to run to the washroom and there was a folded piece of paper sitting at my door. On my way back to bed I picked it up, crawled back under my warm covers, and read it. It said "Get Well Soon Maija! Hope you feel better, me too, get well soon. When I opened it it said To Maija Get Well Soon! Love Josh xoxox"
What a cutie pie. Anyway, not everyone's out, I'm dying of thirst as I can only drink 2/3 tsp of water every 10 minutes :( And I'm really hoping they have Ginger Ale in England as I've texted Heloise asking her to pick some up. I just gave in and took an actual sip of water. It didn't go over so well last time, but I didn't take as much this time. Here's hoping :( That's it for my day. I am sure nothing exciting is going to happen between now, and the next time I fall asleep.

Good Night xx

Ok so since I wrote that, the boys have come home and have had me laughing. I heard Heloise tell Josh I was sick and to stay away from me. Then I heard a knock at my door. I said come in a few times, but he didn't hear me. He went downstairs and told Heloise I wasn't answering. She said that obviously meant I didn't want to see him. Poor guy! That wasn't true at all. Not two minutes later, he came back up and knocked on my door again. This time he heard me. He stuck his head in, but not too far cuz "Mummy told me you were sick and I shouldn't come near you". He sat at my door and sang me a song. It was about eating a moldy peanut, being sick, dying, going to heaven...but he kicked an angel so now he's in hell. Very interesting lmao. What a cutie pie. He asked if I was going to be better tomorrow and able to walk them to school. Aww. He wanted to do something for me but didn't know what. I said how thirsty I was but had a glass of water by my bed. He said he would go top it up for me, but when I told him I didn't want him touching the glass cuz of my germs, he went to get another glass. When he went down, I heard Zach go "Did you see her?" "Maija, Maija, Where are you?" Too cute. Soon enough he was up here with Josh. They stood by the door, careful not to come in too far, but would crawl across the carpet every now and then. They disappeared, and then Josh came back up to show me what he had on his ipod. - A couple of new movies - They went back downstairs, but Heloise needed my house key for the person staying here while we're away. I got up to search for it and was very dizzy. Found it! They left again.

Next...I had Ben 10 and an alien standing in my room. Zach and Nathaniel's costumes they ordered last night had arrived today, and they were so excited they had to show me. It was too cute! Josh came back in once more to say good night. HA! That wasn't it though. He had something very important to tell me about Harry Potter! So he came back :p He then said he wished he could give me a hug but I was too sick. I told him I hoped he could tomorrow. I also thanked him for his card.

Now, in between all this, I had been online with Toni. The two of us were trying to figure out if Ginger Beer and Ginger Ale are the same thing. She offered to pick some up for me in case! About 45 minutes later, she was at the door. She had brought the last Twilight book for Heloise, and a 6 pack, minus 1, - cuz she had to try it - of ginger beer for me. How nice is that? She's great. Now I'm sitting here drinking it, it is practically the same, and I think I'm starting to feel better. I had to go down to get the door cuz no one else heard it (and you can imagine how lovely I look), and I didn't feel as weak...but was still happy to come back up into bed. Now I'm going to drink the rest of this, but only a little bit every 10 minutes, maybe watch Grey's while I do it, and then go to sleep. Good Night for real this time xx

  1. So nice of Toni to bring you the ginger beer, I find it a little spicier than Ginger Ale.

    Josh is too cute! Going to get a new glass so he doesn't get your germs. LOVE IT! And singing to you. Such a sweetheart!

    Hope you are feeling well enough to have that hug tomorrow. And even better on Thursday cause it's kind of a big day.

    "What day is today?"
    "Today is South Africa Day!"
    (thank you Full House!)

    Love you

    P.S. I commented on the fact that I think that's my skirt in your bday pics and that it has been around for a long time and Pat asked if it was my "lucky" skirt, and she wanted to know if it worked for you...lol!

  3. Oh I feel soooooo bad that I am not there to take care of you but it sounds like Josh is trying very hard to. It also sounds like they really don't like it when you are poorly. That is nice to know you are loved.
    I really hope you are better by the time you read this. It would be horrible to fly for all that time feeling like crap.
    Toni is such a sweetie. Thank her for me.
    Love you lots
    Miss you tons

  5. Tara - Of course you knew Gingerbeer was spicier...you're the only person I didn't ask about it! Dammit lol. Oh well...it still did the trick and doesn't taste bad.
    Hahaha South Africa day? I like it.
    Haha well...your skirt brought some nice compliments.

    Aunt Cindy - Thank you for the hug. Yes the boys definitely had me laughing. And don't worry, there's no actual alcohol in Ginger beer :p I checked :p

    Mom - It really is nice that they cared that much. You don't notice their care every day. I will thank Toni for you :D I've thanked her about 5 times myself lol. Hehe if I could fit my Christmas tree in my suitcase, I definitely would. But there's no chance of that happening. xoxoxoxox
