Sickies November 16, 2006
I was up in the middle of last night throwing up. I was still very nauseous this morning, but I slept a bit more and now it’s passed. Mark is feeling ill and, after taking Finn to childcare, has been in bed all day. I don’t think he’s going to work this afternoon. When I went outside this morning I noticed that one of the dogs has had an upset stomach since last night.
We think the culprit might be the marinade I used on the chicken for last night’s dinner. It was premade, from a bottle and seemed fine. It’s the only thing that Mark, me and the dog have in common (the dogs got the leftovers and cleaned up the grill tray). We don’t think it was the chicken itself because it was only bought on the weekend and had been in the freezer until yesterday. It looked and smelled perfect.
For once being a fussy eater has worked for Finn. He refused to eat his dinner last night so I made him a sandwich from the chicken. He ate a little of the chicken but took most of it out and ate the bread. He did complain briefly of a sore tummy last night, but he’s taken to complaining of a sore something when he’s looking for attention or trying to avoid doing something he doesn’t want to. He was fine this morning and childcare haven’t called us yet to come and get so I’m assuming he escaped.
