Inconvenient Timing

When the realtor called Thursday night, she asked to show the house the next morning. She gave me a two hour window, from 9-11. So the girls and I loaded up the next morning and went to run errands. I was thinking something wasn't quite right with Jadie since she didn't touch her milk for breakfast. At about 10:15 (while driving to get an inspection sticker for the car) Jadyn threw-up. It was everywhere! So I pulled over and tried to clean her up the best I could. I arrived back home at 10:26 to find the realtor still there. I didn't know what to do.

I couldn't go inside the house, because I too was covered. Therefore, I couldn't go in and get the neighbors house keys to clean up at their house. So, I drove to James and Courtni's house, unfortunately, they weren't home. I then drove to Matt and Liz's, and they weren't home. I was out of options. I drove back to my neighbors Jennifer and Jason's house. Fortunately, they have a garden hose right next to their driveway. I got Jadie and Ashlyn out and hosed them down. I let the hose sit on Jadie's seat for about 10 minutes to try to get the germs off and the smell out.


Finally, at 11:30...I saw the realtor and her clients load into their seperate vehicles. I was glad they stayed for as long as they did. However, at the same time, I needed to get my girls home and cleaned up!


The realtor did wave me down as she was leaving, (I guess she knew it was me, since I was "hovering".) She said she appreciated my patience and that she was sorry it took so long, but they were serious buyers.


We haven't heard anything as of yet. But it's the weekend.


As for Jadyn. She is finally feeling better. 2 days of not eating much, and running a high fever 102-103! I'm glad she is on the up side of whatever it is she had. Now we are watching Ashlyn to make sure she doesn't get a fever or worse...start her vomitting spell!!!
