Can you believe it ? 3 days at home with a sick child , and it was only on the third that I actually planted my behind on the couch and grapped my cotton and my hook . I watched ' Notes on a scandal ' and enjoyed it . I did n't really like the ending , it did n't resolve the relationship between the two women , but liked the rest of the film .

Based on the preceding passage, answer the following question Why is the narrator getting to watch so much TV ?
They are tending to a sick child .
