I know that's not long, and it's hardly that big a deal on the grand scheme of things, but I'm feeling really anxious today about coping the whole week with the three DSs and two cats. He left at 3.30am this morning and I slept really fitfully and feel sick today. I know it's silly, and there are people who do this by themselves full time (including my mum, with three children, and a good friend of mine who has four) but I have a really big fear of illness, esp tummy-related ones and it is that time of year and I am terrified that one night I'll be dealing with an ill child or I'll get ill. That is my idea of absolute nightmare. There isn't even a bug going around or anything but it's there, in the back of my mind. I'm not even sure what I think DH would add to the situation if it happened and if he were here! I just need reassurance that I'm going to be ok and that chances are we'll all have a good week. Aghhh I wish I were more chilled out!!
