Having a bad day today!

Not my usual happy self today, again not much sleep, but I should be used to that by now, but then the kids started playing up from the word go. They were really good boys on holiday, but now they have me on my own again, they try all sorts of things!
First disaster was after breakfast when I went to give them both some cough mixture for their coughs. Robert showed Richard how to take it nicely, but Richard instantly put his hands up to his mouth saying "don't like it" and "NOOOOO", well as his cough is quite bad, I refused to listen, and when I did get it in he spat it all back out again, I tried twice more and the same result, then I went and found a different cough mixture (different smell, different colour) again he spat it out again. I gave up in tears, he was too, and Robert was cuddling us both. Sounds cute now, at the time, I was just so frustrated. He went to Kindergarden without medicine. I have phoned the chemist and they do a cough mixture suppository, so that is what it will be tomorrow for Richard - he won't like that either, but tough!!!
Lunchtime it was Robert's turn to be stubborn, he decided that he didn't like what I had cooked for lunch and was not going to eat it. I can be stubborn too, especially when I know he actually likes this meal!!! So he sat there for over an hour, whimpering. He never did eat it, but he didn't have any sweeties or TV this afternoon. Teatime the same thing again, first he's complaining his tummy hurts cause he is sooooo hungry, and then he only eats the meat, cheese, tomatoes and crisps, not touching the bread -GRRRRR!
And inbetween mealtimes they refused to play "nicely", and threw their toys across the lounge and stuff like that. Is it a full moon again already? Whatever it is, i would like my good boys back! (And some sleep!)
OK, I feel a little better now, having got that off my chest - thanks for lending me your ear to bend! (Already bent my sister-in-laws, my husbands and my Mums!)

On a different note, why not pop on over to Leigh's blog, she has some new Wordart up for grabs. I won't be using it today, but when I am friends again with my boys it will certainly come in handy!

that's all for tonight, I am a bit late blogging (too many trips to the boys since they have been in bed!), so I will show more holiday pics tomorrow.
Bye 4 now
