I'm on my 3rd cold in 2 months, just generally feeling run down and rotten. Awful headache / temperature. Kids been awful all weekend, they have been arguing all day, won't do as they are told. they've Been climbing the walls as we've been in all weekend. Is illness the worse part of being a lone parent? Would have loved a weekend off to recover peacefully but their father doesn't see them. What's the worse thing for you?

Hope you're feeling better now and had a good Christmas. Worst part of being a single parent for me, is having no significant other there in times of crisis / panic x
