My Mum, whose words of advice all in one conversation (regarding my streaming cold) were:

'Oh poor you, make a bed on the sofa and do as little as possible.....you've got so much washing to do, work through your cold and sort the house out.....refuse to make FussyPucker supper until he's mown the front lawn....just get on with it, you're a mother you've got responsibilities, you can't expect your husband to help you even when you're ill.'

Nice lot of mixed messages there Mum, thanks for your advice.
