I'm a full-time worker, a mother of a 7yo girl and a 12yo boy, have been married for 14 years, and am the carer for my husband and son. DH has chronic joint pain, ADHD, severe anxiety and depression. More recent diagnoses are Fibromyalgia and haemochromatosis; DS has ADHD and mild Asperger's Syndrome.
We also have two cats, a dog, and a house that is slowly being cleaned & decluttered.

Lice, tonsillitis and pink eye. Oh my!
Does anyone want my family?
DD has lice. (Not again! That's it. I'm chopping her mop to short curls. I can hardly get a brush through it, let alone a nit comb.)
DS went on camp and came back with tonsillitis, which he gave to me. (Yay, I'm still on the antibiotics)
DD now has conjunctivitis, most likely viral (or it could be impetigo as she seem to have that too!!!). I haven't got rid of the lice yet! Oh well, at least she has a better reason for staying home from school.
DH has run out of (good) painkillers and is spending half his day in bed, the other half asking me to keep the kids quiet, while I'm trying to work as a professional software developer.
Hang on, two positives:
At least we haven't got the Swine Flu. (Touch wood!)
Oh, and the kitten is recovering beautifully from her desexing the other day.
