Giggles

This young man has been hard work this week.
Sometimes it's hard to know if its my awful parenting or just how it's going to be.
I do understand a lot of his foibles. It doesn't stop me being worn out by them. I mean, he's 5. He knows he has to go to school, he knows he needs shoes onto get there. There's no reason for him to turn it into a fight with me every day. Even when I'm being as "reasonable" as I can.
He still giggles when tickled tho. Like a little person. Oh I'll miss those baby giggles when they go. He may be trying but I adore that boy.

In other news, I'm still flipping ill. It's boring the life out of me. I'm just so pathetic! I get a little flash of my former self every now and then but essentially nearly 3 weeks of general, varied bleurgh is hacking me off.
Now I have a hacking cough to match.
And my voice has nearly gone.
Lucky kids.

I took the dog for a 5k walk with a friend today. Along the river (mud, mud, mud and more mud), coffee in a pub, then back along the canal (less mud).
It was bracing to say the least! Nice tho.

Right, I have an evening of curry leftovers from the freezer and Night Nurse ahead of me.
Rock AND Roll :)
