That’s me, Tommy in the bath and I’m feeling grumpy. Actually, I’ve been grumpy for about 5 days now. It sucks, but I’m getting a lot of attention. Mum and Dad think I’ve got a split personality now because they used to call me “super happy boy” and now they are calling me “grumpy bum”. Whatev’.
Anyways, we are all allowed to have a grumpy day (or 5) every now and then. At the moment, I’m really just happy if Mum is holding me. And it’s much better if we are sitting still, like on the couch and watching ABC Kids or the Wiggles or something entertaining. A little bit of rocking and singing doesn’t go astray too. It really annoys me when Mum wants to get up and do something, like put the washing on the line or answer the phone or go to the loo. Seriously, she can hold on, right?!
Truth be told, I have been a bit sick, and that makes me miserable. First off I had a fever for about 3 days and didn’t know if I was hot or cold or if I wanted people to touch me or not (and can you believe that my parents took me to the snow in that condition?!) And now I have a runny nose and a cough and I am just over it. Mum says she is over it too, but, hello?…she’s not the sick one here! All she wants to do is clean the house and answer emails and sit at the sewing machine. But she will have to wait because that’s her job.
Mum wanted me to tell you that if you are waiting on an email or phone call or something else from her, then you’ll just have to be patient and wait a bit longer because I’m clingy and not letting her out of my sight.
Thanks for listening, it feels good to get it all out!
