Help,
Firstly being a stay at home dad is a real pain in the head, because of all the smiling I'm doing that is.Joe is my little boy and he is grinning for England, and therefore of course I encourage this, but I get blinding facial muscle induced headaches. I expect they'll fade. So, any tips on filling the days, educational activities, fun things, how not to go crazy watching repeats of balamory.
I will keep posted as time goes on, for now its very rewarding, if not tiring. I find having Joe as the centre of attention 24/7 exerpts a different kind of exhaustion and fatigue than most other regular 'jobs' I've had. Is there any way to switch off or relax, when I try I doo feel a little guilty and neglectful, and besides its just about the best and most delightful thing I could ever imagine doing.
Anyhow, little one has Bronchiolitis, so off to administer big cuddles now
for now
