I got home from work a little late last night, in a hurry to get to the Hot Air Balloon Festival. I look forward to this thing ALL YEAR!!! I wanted to see the Balloon Glow... there was a mission, a purpose, a goal... Get home and get Veg ready... Get all our stuff in the car, Dogs taken care of, and we are ready to go... Until my toilet decides, this was a good time to flood my bathroom! GRRR!!!!
Change of plans, new mission, new purpose, new goal "CLEAN THE BATHROOM"...... Fix the toilet, clean clean clean, scoop water, disinfect, clean clean clean.....
Then I shower, get myself clean clean clean.... Again get everyone else ready, pack the car the rest of the way and get on our way... We have time, were still on time, all is good.... RED LIGHT!!!
Traffic is backed up... Apparently everyone had the same idea as us.... 35 minutes later we arrive at our destination. Just in time to see the Balloons fill up with air, which I was very excited about. Veg and hubby were exhausted so they relaxed in the chairs while I bee bopped around to the music and took pictures.... Show is over, back to the car, and there is a 40 minute wait to get out of the parking lot.... *sigh* So we wait... Veg falls asleep...
We get home and I carried a sleeping Veg upstairs to use the bathroom before climbing in his bed. Now, I realize, no one wants to wake up and find themselves standing in front of a Commode but when you have a 4 year old that is not wearing diapers...Going to the bathroom before bed is a priority! So he wakes up on our way to the pot and says he has to poop... Sit him down so he can go, and lets just say... he didn't have to poop! In fact he had his own running water... But not the kind that pointed down... Oh No.. It was in the UP position... Take note: While sitting down on the toilet it is NOT a good idea for a boy to be in the UP position. Needless to say, I now had more cleaning to do... The floor, the walls, the towels...So, get him off to bed and... CLEAN CLEAN CLEAN!!! I don't think my bathroom has ever been so spotless.
So today, we took Veg back to the festival and one of the pilots let him get inside a basket (not attached to a balloon, just the basket) And he went on some of the inflatable things, but it was madness.. Crowded and long lines, we stayed a little while then headed for home. Veg had a great time and thankfully, I didn't have to clean up any WATER today!
