Poorly 8 y/o dd is being rather neglected while I cater for her 6 y/o brother who has had the bug and now has his appetite back big time.

Emptying vomit bowls and cooking do not go well together, my friends, as I'm sure you know. Takes me back to the days when you had to break off from working on some complicated recipe to change a nappy .

This is one of those joyous days of motherhood in the bibbity household.

6yo then - but make toast, rather than waste time here!

6 y/o fed. He now needs a bath (he hasn't had one for two days as he's been wiped out).

Dd not well enough to go to bed yet. I don't want her to feel left alone. TV is on. She is on sofa with bucket, towels, ice cubes, flannel, paper towels.

Am going to leave her on her own for 20 mins while I bath ds. She can shout up to me if she needs me.

pant pant.

Ohhh, sympathy - there is nothing worse than being poorly and not being able to watch your own crappy TV. last tummy bug I had, DD2 (3.5yo) had it at the same time - I was stuck with CBeebies

Hope you're all better soon.

Hello bb. I didn't throw up (for I know this is what you are interested in ) but it was a battle of wills.

Am feeling better now. Just about to eat something for the first time since Monday night.

I do feel a bit traumatised by it all, sadly. Never going to be 100% cured I suppose.

Thanks for looking out for me!
