Head Lice Warning

We finally got to see Adrienne this morning in her conference outfit, which was really cool. All her team are dressed up as 1960s Air Hostesses, as their guest speaker is Frank Abagnale, the guy who the movie Catch Me If You Can is based on.

By Friday our Jarvis is pretty stuffed, as Felix and I found out when we went to pick him up from pres-school. There was our boy laid out on the carpet fast asleep. He was totally worn out, as was I, after carrying Felix and pushing a sleeping Jarvis in the stroller up the hill to the car. Even after waking up at home while Felix was asleep, the normally wired Jarvis, decided that he'd rather cuddle up with his Dah than run around. It was really lovely to have him to myself and cuddle.

I did take the oppurtunity to check Jarvie's hair as we cuddled up on the sofa, as there was a message on his classroom door notifying parents that there has been an outbreak of head lice. The parents area was buzzing with talk of the best products to use, how to apply them and what to look out for. I lapped it all up and went straight to the chemist and spent $30 on product and nit comb. I couldn't see any in his hair, but we'll have a check this weekend to be sure.

After dinner though the food started to kick in and Jarvis was back to his normal self. Well not actually himself, but a ginger pussycat called Winston who lives in our laundry basket. While I fed Felix in the playroom, Winston went off for a wander. As I fed Felix, Jarvis, sorry Winston kept calling out "Help Dah, Winston's stuck", but I was busy and as Jarvis didn't sound too stressed, let him be. When I finally did find him, he was indeed stuck fast in the tiniest gap between a bookshelf and sofa. Opps, I felt a bit stink, but I think the law is on my side, as he was a cat and not a little person at the time!

House Dad.
