The Lundy 5

we're jumper cabling it again! our electricless evening was quite eventful. read harry potter by candle light *whoooo*. then dh and i wake up hearing the door open around 2 am. faithful sydney bolts downstairs to check it out and gives us the all clear. dh goes down to check it out anyway, armed with a flashlight. finds the door closed but not all the way. did he shut it when he came in last night? did someone come in and hear syd and leave? who cares i suppose, they're not here now. so a little excitement. and hard to get back to sleep in the heat. :( then ds wakes up to tummy cramps and has to go potty. so i stumble over his toys, shoulda cleaned those up during the daylight. but he can't go. for hours we do this. back to bed, i fall asleep, he yells, try again, nothing. once i woke up thinking i'd cast a spell on his bowels to loosen them up!!!!!! yep, too much harry potter i guess. then i find out dh got up with him once and it ALL...
