Lousy Weekend

My poor daughter is having a lousy weekend. She knows that I have to go over everything with a fine-toothed comb, but she is getting fed up with my nitpicking. Literally.

Yes, friends, lice. We've been having an epidemic of lice at my children's school, and as of a couple days ago, my daughter E is the latest victim. Now we are washing, steam cleaning, and spraying everything. Die, lice, die.

Ugh.

When I was in elementary school there was an outbreak, and for a good... 9 months, on and off, my mom kept checking me, finding nits, giving me the shampoos, bagging all my stuffed animals, etc. Finally it got to the point where this just could not be possible, and she sent one to a lab. Turned out it was dandruff O_O She let me get my ears pierced after that, heh.

I would have loved to have seen her face when she got the lab results. :)

That I don't know, but I ran around the house screaming bloody murder :D
