The joys of having a “big” kid

Ice cream maker, panadol deliverer, tea and hot toddy producer, screener of phone calls…….I’ve coughed all night, and feel really rough today, though Hannah is a lot better, thankfully, so given I’m a day behind her, hopefully that will be me tomorrow. I’ve taken to bed, and Hannah is doing a massive clear out of her bedroom. For various reasons, we didn’t do the usual pre-xmas clear out this year, so it’s well overdue. She has amazed me by putting her entire collection of Dr Who mags in the re-cycling. In the style of all good de-clutter godesses, she’s got three black bags, and is doing a bin/donate/sell division. The play room is next, though I think she’ll need my help with that, as I may be largely responsible for the groaning bookcases in there.

I got a new coaching contract this morning, someone I had spoken to a couple of times last week, has decided to go ahead with a 6 session contract, so that is excellent news.

And why is it, that my pelvic floor has a 72 hour limit on non-stop coughing.

    Oh, pack those mags away somewhere and they’ll be worth money one day!
    I like having big kids too. Get well soon.

    I would call this ‘the joys of having H’, rather than any big kid. Unfortunately my children have learnt from my example when it comes to nursing them – if you’re ill, go to bed and stay there until you’re better, and that’s what they do for me too! I do occasionally get the odd cup of tea. But you’ve obviously taught H well!

    Great news about the contract 🙂
