I'm ill

I'm just moaning, sorry.

I thought it was just a cold but I've got all these pains in my joints, sweats etc. Ds woke 4 times last night so I hardly got any sleep, which probably doesn't help.

Tomorrow ds starts his settling in at nursery. He's really not keen on starting, worried I will leave him etc. I really need him to start for practical reasons. I feel a bit wobbly about it tbh.

And we'll have to spend all day in town because of the rubbish rural buses. And of course ex is not interested anything, leaving me to sort it all.

I know I will cope as there is no other option but I feel awful. Sad

Aww - poor you.

Take heart - you'll be feeling much better tomorrow and your DS will probably surprise you by how quickly he settles in to his nursery.

I sympathise with your "rubbish rural buses".

Thanks choco. Feeling a bit better after some lunch.

One of the reasons I need ds in nursery is so I can get on with driving lessons - they are threatening to cut the bus service, so I'll just never leave the house again then, thanks!

Perhaps you'll be able to organise to share child care with another mum from your DS nursery once he's been going for a little while.

It's always the transport issue for us, can't get to anyone to drop him off and we are so out of the way it's not really convenient for anyone else.

I've packed bags and picked out clothes for tomorrow. Got the camera ready too Smile.
