We (and I use that term lazily, for I haven't the strength to search for a truly suitable noun) are "watching" our 4 year old nephew.
Parents dropped him off last night. Things were basically ok. (Don't get me wrong, he's a good kid, sweet boy. Just 4 years old, and all that that entails. Although, I have seen flashes of
Trouble Child)
So, like I said, last night......allright. I put him, and my daughter (
[don't get me started on that *fudge*in' kid either....wonder sometimes she is my spawn....mumble mumble beat the piss out of her mumble mumble. Just kidding. Illustrative, that I'm not biased.
Any............HOO! Wake up today. 10:06 Tee time. Raining like hell, but breaking soon. I head out, sentencing Karen to 4+ hours of the 2 kids in the house. I had fun, played ok, birdied the last, but fodder for another thread. Karen had her hands full. Weather did break up, and the kids went outside.
I'm tired of typing, and I'm sure, by now, you have probably stopped reading/giving a damn.
The kids come running up to me...."Austin threw up on the stairs!"(outside).
I go and look, sure enough.....
"Austin, you ok bud?"
Yeah, I was just playin' too hard.Ok. Time to go. We load up, and off to Costco, a few other places, and then ou to eat for the night. We get about 6 miles down the road, and..........well, you guessed it, you don't have to wait for it......Bleh, bleh.
Lil' dude is now heaving all over the back seat of our car.
We tur around, and have been home since. We're her for the night. Karen is livid. Her car is her sanctuary. She is a clean freak. I just spent the last hour decontaminating the best I could. It still needs to be deep cleaned.
What pisses me/her off..........the parents came by this morning, on their way out of town, to drop off his bike.
They used us!
They weren't leaving yet. Never said a word about their plans. Whatever. The puking, overshadows, and taints the thoughts right now, but it leads both of tho question, why the hell do we have your damn kid, if you weren't leaving 'til this after noon.
Austin is fine now, BTW, and resting comfortably.
