I been awake since 4am, can't swollow, throat so swollen I cannot even look down, and I ache so much.............head to toe.

and I have a raging temp of 39.9 but am shivering as tho it is icy cold!!!

DH has had to go to work too, so feel extra rough as the boys are live-wires today (when are they never live-wires).

I don;t do poorly well......

If you aren't eligible for seeing out of hours, then I feel sure they'll tell you on the phone

Sparkler · 10/08/2008 10:25

Poor thing you. Tonsilitis is horrid.

I'm sleepy......and DS2 is needing attention.......had forgotten how damn hard it is parenting with tonsilitis......been ages since I have been quite this ill!

been achy and crappy feeling before, but my temp is so high I feel whizzy when I move making parenting harder....

They are easier to steal back with her ill

I would have them for you, but am losing my own in a min so we can do upstairs.

Flameboy isn't as skilled as his sister with a jigsaw it seems. I remember the Chick being in her room at about his age doing this big floor puzzle (I'm sure I was pregnant at the time) - he is now trying to do the same one and just ramming in random pieces.

psychomum5 · 10/08/2008 10:44

ah, tis ok flame....I can manage...and I know you need to house-find!!

they not too bad to be fair. tis not like they babies anymore....and they can kind-of occupy themselves....

DS2 has just come to show me that he can do laces.....he has been practicing all morning he says (not true but hey), but he can indeed do laces!!!

he is so thrilled.
