Then he wante to sleep with us but I woke hubby to have him carry him back to bed. Yes, then the dog needed out, not when we were awake at 1, but at 4 AM. And at 5, 4 year old came and got in bed with us.... thankfully, we don't have the coughing but yesterday..... 2 year old was puking and pooping and had to take 4 baths before noon!!! ACK! Be glad you didn't have to change bedding and give someone a bath at 2 AM. <BR/><BR/>You should feel better already! You aren't covered in vomit and feces! :) Glad I could help.Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11194724896237883505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18817460.post-47908891009472561052009-01-26T09:43:00.000-06:002009-01-26T09:43:00.000-06:00I was the cougher last night, but also had the dog...I was the cougher last night, but also had the dog, snoring husband and silly cat, the neighbor's dog barking, and a few jets landing at the airport a few miles from our house.

She's very considerate and always tries to line up her toenails with something that will make a lot of noise, like the bathtub in the bathroom that's 3' from the bed. That rattle-tap-scrape noise is very soothing - just like a lullaby. And don't worry, she's pretty deaf, so you won't accidentally wake her up by shouting "shut up!" at her...idreamicanflyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00560547094346174866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18817460.post-75925909526911786412009-01-25T21:23:00.000-06:002009-01-25T21:23:00.000-06:00you know that preacher will always be welcome here...you know that preacher will always be welcome here.jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05925212233815659494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18817460.post-30197218003820239262009-01-25T20:48:00.000-06:002009-01-25T20:48:00.000-06:00Don't need to borrow no stinkin cat, I've got my o...Don't need to borrow no stinkin cat, I've got my own problems with one who drapes himself on my face.
