reynardo | This whole motherhood thing is entirely over-rated.

Is the 42nd trimester too late to do anything about it?

Having dragged my backside out of bed on several Tuesdays and Thursdays to get Ratboy to school on time for his German classes, I now find he hasn't been going because he didn't have the right workbook.

Heaven knows what else he's been missing or not doing.

He's headed to school this morning in a major grump because of it, and blaming it all on "stress". This does not help me at all.

So please come and visit me when it's allowed for good behaviour for the next 20 years, would you?
