I had separate posts written for each
of these meanderings but even I was bored to tears so I condensed them down
into a quick read instead.
. For the love of Christ please think of
the children. A recent report has
claimed that Irish children will consume more than 1.5 million eggs this
weekend. That at the very least each child
will receive two eggs with the most being a whopping ten to fifteen eggs each.
That’s insane. So instead consider giving some of the
following: a cinema voucher, a book
token, a day trip to a park or the zoo, a swim, their favourite magazine or an Easter
camp. Believe me, their parents will
really thank you for it!
Anti-biotics. Or as Smallest Boy calls them “antic
biotics.” They rock. They really do. I did not give him his “antic biotic” lightly. On the doc’s recommendation I was to wait “a
day or two” then I’ll know if it’s a bacterial infection rather than
viral. In other words, if he continues
to complain about pain in his ears, lash the stuff into him. I did.
Night sweats coupled with a spiking temp and scary ass hallucinations
are not fun! He’s right as rain
now. In fact, he was “extremely half
better” within 12 hours of the first dose.
Opinions. On parenting that is. My news feed seems to be a bit clogged with
articles these days. I enjoy a good
parenting article but sometimes I’ll get halfway through and realise it’s not the
article I thought it was and I’ll jump onto the comments. Sometimes these can be quite entertaining. Sometimes, indeed oftentimes, they can hold
more merit than the article itself. They
can be eye opening in an eye watering disbelieving kind of way. Sometimes I wonder what sensitivities and
insecurities the articles have roused in some readers to make them comment so vociferously.
But I always, always try to remember
that most of these articles are exactly that; someone’s opinion.
