To think 3 days stuck inside with my 2 dcs could drive me mad?

Dd aged 4, and ds aged 2 have had chicken pox since tues, both pickled, run down and poorly (obviously).
Dd off Pre-school and its tipping with rain. We did movies the firts day, then i worked yesterday morn ( mil came round).
They have now picked up a bit and we are all playing cars and sylvanian families. Have done colouring and sticking this morning.
I now think I will go mad, they keep fighting, dd is stressy, both demanding things, if I go out the room whinging.
I am the type of mum who is better outside doing things, we very rarely stay in and I now remember why. We will prob go for a weekly walk in a mo.
I know I've had a rant, but is it just me who feels like this? And am I a crap mum for feeling like this? Wy can't I enjoy being stuck in with them?

I have just re-read my post and can't believe what a horrible mum I sound? We do, of course do things at home, it what I mean is, I would generally take them out for part of the day.
Please don't flame me, I'm just fed up, they are both very loud, shorty children today, and I feel like all I have done is shout.
But I know it's only because they are tired and feel poorly.

I feel for you I have a 4.5yo home from school with croup. We're on day three and cabin fever has set in. He's really poorly and clingy but generally refusing to sleep as the cough is too painful so my extremely busy week has had to be postponed to cuddle and watch bloody CBeebies /Nick Jr with the grumpiest child alive.
