I'm afraid I just wanted to post a self indulgent moaning post!
I've come out in a hideous cold the last couple of days - aching all over, really chesty cough (that makes me cough so much at night my throat bleeds
), really snotty and my ears feel all blocked up and hurt too.
Baby has got so low she feels like she is going to drop out at any moment and I keep getting shocking pains in my cervix that take my breath away so don't feel like I should really be driving anywhere... My mum has three sick children at home so I told her I'm fine so she didn't have any more to worry about but I could really do with a cuddle.
Neil is being worked silly (averaging about 14 hours a day and doesn't have a day off again until Thursday) so I'm not really getting to see him at the moment and because I feel rubbish nothing is getting done and the house is beginning to look like a pig sty!
I think his work are anticipatnig his two weeks paternity leave and are making sure they work him to the bone now (as they don't appear to be able to cope with him, not that his pay or benefits reflect that.
)
And to top it all off, somehow the pilot light seems to have gone off on the boiler so I have no hot water or heating. We've got some contraption of a boiler (it's a back boiler behind the fire) and to light it you have to lie on your tummy to get at the buttons etc - which obviously isn't happening, even if I try really hard! Neil won't be home until about 10.30 so I'm snuggled up in bed (and I've allowed the cats in for once so they can keep me warm - they must think it is Christmas!!
)
I feel even more like a moaning old cow now - but it does feel good having a whinge sometimes.
Hope everyone else isn't feeling as miserable!
