tis truly shite being ill when you're on your own.. tomorrow get a duvet on the sofa put one either end and sit in the middle.. watch dvds

I'm with you all. Being ill when you are on your own with the DC just magnifies that it is always you who is 'on duty' and when they are too ..Cricky it's hard

chocolare on the way, dairy milk massive bar

Hope youre feeling better YG. Im in the sick bay too. Ive had 4 days of it now & it aint no fun at all. Im almost grateful to their dad who picked them up a little while ago for his half of the school holidays, (which consists of less than 24 hours) Funny half. Now I can die in peace until he drops them off at the crack of dawn tomorrow.

It is such hard work, I am on day 5 of the flu, wondering if I will ever get better, and if I will ever catch up with the housework.

Sympathy, YG]
It's bad enough if there are 2 parents in my experience
Get well soon!

My situation is actually better now ive got rid of my selfish whinging third child. One less person to cook for & clear up after. Thank God the selfish @rse has the dc today so I can spend it resting. (At the PC)
