To be secretly happy that DH is ill in bed....

[MrsPuddleduck]

...because for once I can sit downstairs and watch whatever I want on the TV and get to hold the remote control at the same time!

I am also going to knit as I can have the big light on, click, rustle and tut as much as I want!

You won't be so happy when the pathetic cries start, cue demands of lemsip, soup, attention etc.

And if you ignore his plaintive cries he he will just bang on the floor to get your attention

Believe me, he won't leave you in peace!

Well the good thing is he has a caught a tummy bug so is nil by mouth so to speak - so no fetching or carrying required.

I thought it was quite good of him to vomit on a night when England were playing as I have been spared a night of running commentary as well!

ooh I think this stomach bug is going around, I've been feeling rough since Monday...

Yay for you getting unfettered access to the remote control though

I'm so with you on the big light thing. I want to sew while watching telly but DP wants to turn the light down "to make it more like a cinema" wtf?

yanbu
but I do feel for you. shades of being married to my ex, and never getting to watch my choice on the tv.

god yes, my ex used to want to turn the lights down too. Is it a man thing? they cant concentrate on more than one thing at once?

my dp always wants the lights up and i want them down but he does give me running commentary on the online poker!! I do like it when he is nightshift cause I get peace isnt it hard work living with someone?? why do we do it
