And then, the flu. Things I've learned these pased two weeks.

1) When kids are sick, keep bowl/bucket close by, lay sleeping blanket spread out on the floor if you have carpet.

2) If vomit gets on the carpet. God bless you. It's just really, really, bad. Use a cloth to soak up the best you can, and remove "chunks". Borrow, or go out and buy a mini steam vac of some kind. Don't use soap/solution, only very hot water. Vac and vac, and vac. Spray with vinegar/water solution and fan dry. If it was a "big mess" like ours was (twice) than after you do the above, call professionals, they can usually come out right away. This is was the case with us and such a blessing as we ALL were sick.

3) Spray the vinegar/water solution (about 1 part vinegar, 2 parts water) all around, it disinfects and dissolves odors.
