Steve sure knows how to spoil a perfect day !!!!

Comment Published at 23:4223:4242 comments42 comments72 Visits72 VisitsReport

 

We couldn't have wished for a more perfect day.....the sun was shining....the birds were singing merrily....and the gentle sea breeze was keeping the  temperature at  bay.

After talking to my son in England on skype, which was a little sad knowing he was so far away but great to be able to talk to him and see him - Wow for modern techology. 

We sat down to a delicious meal of King Prawns. Fresh Bread Rolls and Salad, quiet content with ourselves we sat back to enjoy the afternoon. Double Wow for modern techology we got to speak to our dear friends Marg & Dan  on their Christmas Eve Day....oh how I love seeing her and hearing her beautiful voice....hate to tell all you lovely friends but I have another Dream, you couldn't guess what it is could you??????

Anyway 4 hours to the dot Steve went as white as a sheet and came over all clammy and stated he was not feel good at all. Well the old nurse kicked in checking blood pressure, pulse and for heart pain.... when he started to get awful stomach cramps and pain.

Bottle of Poison with Crossbones clipart The lights came on and food poisoning  Skull and Crossbones Symbol clipart came to the forefront....my poor husband had Food Poisoning and in a short time he was feeling terrible and in so much pain. After he was voilently ill he came over with shivers and got cold....so with a sleeping pill and glass of lemonade in hand it was off to bed with him.

Luckily he went straight to sleep and slept through the night....feeling a lot better when he woke up. He sure did scare me, it came on so sudden and Steve went from laughing and joking to looking seriously ill.

I am just so relieved that he is ok today....so we have spent the day doing nothing but relaxing.

Hope everyones day was  a grand one.

Much Love Janice xxxxxd

Re: Steve sure knows how to spoil a perfect day !!!!

That's no good at all Janice.  Thankfully it was only food poisoning, but it must have been incredibly scary at the time.  Glad to hear he is better now.  I know too well about what food poisoning is like (thank you so muc KFC coleslaw - will never eat that again!!!).  Just a shame that it happened on Christmas Day.

Take care,

Tanya.

Re: Steve sure knows how to spoil a perfect day !!!!

Oh poor Steve, my tummy is feeling rather fat and full right now and I almost jumped on the porcelain bus just reading about it.  I am glad that he had a quick recovery, however that is one scarey and horrible moment that you guys really didn't need.  Take care both of you and BIG HUGS from MicroMe & Me xoxox

Re: Steve sure knows how to spoil a perfect day !!!!

Crumbs oh! Poor Steve and poor Janice, not good for either of your hearts I should think. Many good vibes for a speedy recovery for Steve, I empathise completely having suffered the same fate at the hands of a rebelious prawn in the past.

Yes technology can bring loved ones so close, but yet so far. I do so hope you get over to U.K sooner rather than later,LOL. Wow that would be just wonderful. I will waiting for news on that, impatiently,LOL.

Much Love to you both. Winnie.xxxx

OH poor Steve I feel his pain, Christmas eve night I spent the night with my head in the toilet!! no Idea what it was or what I ate, I thought it was because I had a glass of wine that night but christmas morning when Glenn came to pick Katelyn up she started to. must be a bug going around?

must have been so good to see your baby in England, hay at least you got to eat the yummy prawns before Steve got sick!!

Love ya Minti Mum

Re: Steve sure knows how to spoil a perfect day !!!!

 Not nice being sick anytime, but especially Christmas Day not nice....so hope you & Katelyn are also feeling better and it was just a 24 hour bug.

It is rolling off the tongue a lot easier when you say Glenn came and picked Katelyn up, which is great to hear sweetie.

Yes it was good to hear from my baby in England, would never let him hear me call him that, I would be in trouble, but your children are always your babies.

The Prawns were lovely I enjoyed immensely.

Love your minti Mum xxxxx

Re: Steve sure knows how to spoil a perfect day !!!!

 He certainly was a poor Steve, thankfully he is slowly recovering and stopped scaring me.

Skype  is sure great but I do agree with you Helen it does make you miss them alot more.

My son keep saying that Steve & I have to make a trip to England while they are there....so it looks like we might get that chance to catch up in that park where that lake is.

  Today 6:53pm |  Arna Re: Steve sure knows how to spoil a perfect day !!!!
Ah well Janice, at least he got to enjoy his meal first.   And, you could say, he certainly got his money's worth ;).

You both have a relaxing day.  I'm sure you need to recover as well.

Isn't it great being able to communicate with others on the other side of the world?  not that my family are into it.

 Silly me blogged twice, so I transfered your remark into here.

Steve sure did get his money's worth poor fellow....was on my toes last night, I have seen someone so healthy one minute, then so awfully sick the next for such a long time....he sure frightened me.

Sorry your family isn't into communicating maybe I can whisper in their ear for for you....it means  alot to have that contact.

Love Janice xxxx

 Hi Griz,

It is very strange they were fresh prawns in that day and I ate just as many as Steve did and was ok.... and we had the same again today and he was fine....but I think he must have gotten one bad one....boy it made him sick.

Sorry to hear miss K is sick bot a nice start to the holidays....hope her temperature goes down saving a trip to the doctors and a swift recovery.

Love Janice xxxx
