Much sympathy to the Pumble house of lurgy.

Will the cc company refund?

Having a reasonable week here but still fed up with winter. Off to get my hair cut (it needs it) & have a walk along the sea front (if it doesn't rain - again).

Hope they are all getting better asap.

For the first time in all this I really want to give up. P3 has a sky high temperature and it's just one thing after another and I don't have any strength left

I am not surprised.

Can you get any help in for half term? Can your Mum come or can you get a cleaner from an agency?

Sending huge hugs.

So we are getting back to normal. Mr P still not 100% but getting there. This has put a lot of strain on us though and things were hard anyway... Not sure how to make things better and not sure how to get the energy to do it...

Don't rush it Pumble just take each day as it comes and one day you'll realise things are ok again. Glad MrP is getting there.

Pumblettes doing so much better Smile

Life still hard work as mr P still not great but at least pumblettes are easier. I'm so pleased that p3 is relatively easy going/don't know how I would have got through the past few weeks otherwise!

Not sure there's enough wine in the world to raise three small children though!

How's things?

Hope Mr P gets better asap.

Sending you virtual VATS & Barrels of wine. Wine

All OK here. DH & I are fine.

DS & DIL are over the noro - PFGD has given up the boob & has slept from 7pm until 7am for the last 3 nights.

Happy parents.

And she has produced a tooth - isn't she clever?

Only proud Granny thinks that getting a tooth is clever............. am I besotted??

P3 is a Star - well he would be in my eyes with his name!! His namesake was a pain in the arse as a baby until about 10 months!!

You are the biggest Star, Pumble. Look how far you have come & how well you are coping. Just go back to your first post ever on these threads if you ever have any doubts ..........

Sending my love to you, P1, P2, P3 & even a bit to Mr P - as long as he is behaving or I will come and VISIT

He is a delight really and hadn't heard from since 7pm as normal but I like a later wake up as we normally do! I ended up with them all in bed with me dozing by 6:30!

Can I just say aaaarrrrrrggggghhhhhhh. Everything is fine but I could do with standing on the top of a high hill and shouting for a little moment and then normal order would be restored!!

Sweetie, you can scream as often & as loud as you want.

Leave them all with Mr P* & come & spend a w/e with me!!

I can take you to the top of a high hill (cliff, in fact) & we could have a lovely time.

*Might demand the presence of P3 Grin

Seriously, can you get out for a run?

Oh, Pumble - sweetie.

I just can't believe what a load of shite you have had to deal with lately.

Am hoping by now you have been seen, that P3 is Ok & that you have managed to cancel al your cards etc.

Just wish I could hop through the screen & come & help you.

We have been moved to a ward. My parents came down so has some company for a bit and then they've gone back to our house to be there for girls in the morning

They've given him penicillin and are now worried he might be having an allergic reaction to it (p2 is allergic).

Am hanging in there but this has been the straw that broke the camels back in many ways and I have cried more than I have with any of the other shiy from the past few weeks
