Its going to be a long day....

Norman was home sick all day yesterday and the house is TRASHED! I planned on today being a clean-up and get it together day. Well, Benjamin got into the trash and got a hold of a empty Purell Hand Sanitizer container - the teeny tiny sized one - and was filling it up at the bathroom sink and drinking out of it.

I grabbed the Poison Control magnet and called to see if I needed to rush him off to the hospital. PC said no, he should be fine, give him something to eat and drink and all is well.

As I'm getting off the phone, I see Max chewing something...
in his hand is 3/4 of the Poison Control number magnet....the other 1/4, yep, in his mouth....2nd call to them to see if their magnet poses a poisoning hazard...

It's going to be a LONG day!!


Note added later - I was at Applebee's tonight and Norman called asking for the number to Posion Control. Yeah, Norman, ha ha, very funny. No, he says, Benjamin got into the record cleaner (record cleaner??!! WHY do we, excuse me, why does Norman have record cleaner??We don't even OWN a record PLAYER!!! That's another story for another day...) Anyway, record cleaner also fairly benign, just have him drink lots of liquids....

Oh, and after much disussion with Benjamin, it was discovered that the bottles look like the bottles in Shrek 2 that hold "Potions" and he wanted to try the "potions". We told him we have NO potions in this house and he can only drink out of his cups!!
