DS is 2.5 and has a bad cold/flu bug. Currently on sofa with calpol and blankets and Cbeebies.

I am attempting to work from home. Yeah right.

"I'm still hungry.... I don't want that soup, I want a different soup.... Not that bit of bread, that one.... Ohhhhh, it's too big, make it smaller...I don't like it.....I want a cereal bar.....I want some raisins...Mummy, I sneezed.....Mummy, my nose is running.....Mummy, why is it a Ninky Nonk Day on Night Garden? I want a Pinky Ponk Day.....I don't want that banana, it's got a black bit on it.......Mummy, Mummy, Mummy, Mummy, Mummeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee"

Sorry, just needed to vent before I went and beat my head against the kitchen wall.

This made me laugh. But I am now concerned as this is what my toddler is like every day .

oh please, can we? then we could have a large glass of gin or something.

I thought DP was being a hero staying home with him this morning, but DS was asleep all morning so DP just got on with some work! Tchah.

T'other week I had DS AND DH both ill. And I had the raging lurgy too but guess who was up and down making hot drinks/lunches/medicines???

Mine is a bit like this normally, but this is magnified by about a million.

And trying to redraft a document with Tikkabilla in the background is quite tricky.
