This did not just happen...

Quinn has been sick all day starting at 5 am. Finally she seemed to be better, so after her nap I gave her a popsicle and some water. Everything was going fine... we finger painted, did some puzzles, and were sticking stickers on the envelopes for our Valentine cards. She then pukes the popsicle all over the cards and envelopes!!! The cards that I actually got out the sewing machine to sew on. I attached photos to the front of the cards.
I now have to get more envelopes for the cards & re-make a few that got puke on them. And of course guess which part of the envelopes got hit the worst- the corner with the stamps, so now I can't even peel those off to re-use them! UGH!!!

Aw man, Murphy's Law in action!!!

As bad as it sounds...clean off the envelopes the best you can and then let the envies dry. Cut out the stamps and run them thru your Xyron. I have had to do this before. The post office will take them.

Ohhh.. That's not fun.. I remember one time when my step son was sick.. the inlaws stopped by and brought him a slurpee. a red one.. He puked on a brand new rug I had bought that was not cheap.. i was peaved. never could get it clean..it just wasn't the same after that... He wasn't as little as Quinn. he was probably 10..

hang in there.. hopefully she is feeling better soon.. Hugs!!!!

Well, the visual isn't all that appealing! Poor Quinn and poor you - after all that work you went through. Hope you can fix them without too much work!!!

OMG! I am so sorry, what a disaster! And you can't even yell since it was an accident.

That sux. I hope she feels better soon.

Don't you hate when that happens!

craftyfool · Mon Feb 09, 2009 10:44 pm

Oh no!!! Poor little sweetie.

And all that work...darn.

But I agree with using the stamps anyway...that's $$!

SarahA · Mon Feb 09, 2009 11:01 pm

Thanks everyone!
I did manage to save all of the cards & just had to re-address some envelopes. Was also able to save the stamps!
Hopefully she'll be better tomorrow after her tummy rests!

JulianaM · Mon Feb 09, 2009 11:18 pm

Oh man!!! That totally stinks!
I hope she gets feeling better soon though!

Glad Quinn is doing better and you have salvaged some of the valentines. My DSG started puking Sat night and did all day yesterday. He will probably stay home from school tomorrow.
