Mums - do you let things slide when you are sick?

I have had the worst sore throat plus aches & pains for 4 days now. I can't speak or eat and all I want to do is either sleep or lie on the sofa. Unfortunatley there's not much chance of that with a 21 month old daughter, lol! As we speak she is still in her PJ's snacking on a bag of Skips and a banana (at the same time, yuck!) while watching Peppa Pig. I feel very guilty - usually we are out at the park or the beach or doing the shopping but I just feel terrible. Anyone else let it all go when they are ill?
