Stuck in with one ill and one well ... gah ...

Ok, I've spent today stuck in with DS1 moderately ill (would have sent him in, maybe, but it was a school trip, so really couldn't) and DS2 just fine. They're both driving each other (and me) completely mad.

How do other people cope with this?

Alcohol. And sometimes drugs.

Oh, ok, it's not just me?

I've been wandering between the computer and the laptop, while they play video games, annoy each other and watch TV.

Tomorrow, if DS1 is still ill (which is looking likely - he's pooing out clear fluid!), I will pay someone to come sit with him so DS2 and I can go out.

Oh, I owe you an Xmas costume. You're not brewing any more surprise babies I can knit a hat for again?

No more surprise babies, no

I am, however, enrolling DD in a nursery simply on the offchance she gets cast as a shepherd in their nativity play...
