Today the kiddos and I were running around getting few things done and in the car Sydney says..."Mommy, I gotta frow up" - hands over her mouth
"do you have your bucket?" (we keep one in the car for such occasions for our carsick girl)
"no, I cannot reach it"
"well, we are here, I think you will be all right"
We get out of the car into the parking lot...
"are you going to be all right?"
"I don't know - my belly feels funny - I want the round orange medicine" (Dramimine)
"You don't need the orange medicine - we are in the car 10 minutes"
Since Sydney throws up in the car all of the time I was not worried because she has never thrown up outside of the car. So we walk into the store - the one where I get my sewing machine fixed... In the store, nobody is around - nobody wants to help me. I go to the side room to show the lady that I was there - she sees me and ignores me so I go back and wait.
"Mommy - I gotta frow-up"
"Here, if you throw up - do it in this trash can" (a small trashcan with a plastic bag in it)
Head in the trashcan...
"BBBLLLLUUUPPPPP - BBBLLLLUUUPPPPP"
"Ohhh - I feel better now - can I go play??" (Now, full of smiles and back to normal, my 3 year old is back to her self).
I am standing there with a trashcan full of vomit - what am I going to do? I see an open door in the back of the store - out I walk - dump the vomit into the bushes - return into the store - still nobody cares that I am there - nobody noticed - put the trashcan back...waited a few more minutes for the saleslady...Sydney is playing - everything is Great!
I DO NOT UNDERSTAND this car sick stuff. Short trips, long trips, not every time, always enough warning to make it into the bucket...I don't get it!

Hmm, roller coasters are fine, but 10 minute car rides make her sick. Who would guess that?!
