    OK - going to kill him

    He is still in bed, sending me texts because 'he doesn't have the energy to call me'. He feels dizzy, took his temp - its normal (surprise, surprise). Told him he might be dehydrated and needs to drink little sips of water often. He replied, in a meek, winey voice 'get me a straw then, cuz my head hurts when I lift it' - should point out he is 42 NOT 4!!!!!

    I am going to run away...............

    pigpen, I have a confession to make. Lads room has black windows, dust and probably mould and I can't and won't climb over their beds to get to it. It's been like that for months now and we have a stand off. I have told them to clean it this weekend or leave. For anyone who thinks I am cruel they are 18 and 19, so can easily do it themselves.
