Low Morale?

Anyone else's Y6 DS (or DD) seem a little down-in-the dumps?
What with the weather - not being able to go to sleep easily and a lively DS2 keeping DS1 awake (share a room), the death of his favourite tropical fish and a less-than stellar start to the school year (teacher not marking any homework yet, not far enough in the school year to get stuck into any meaty projects). Obviously YOU KNOW WHAT (SW Consortium schools) looming in November and then school open days... 3 down, 2 to go.
I am just as bad - one minute very excited about the future, the other in despair at the task ahead and then the anxiety of the wait until March.
DS has a pile of 11+ practice papers at home to do... but there's never enough time to look at them.
Other Y6 parents, do you feel like you need therapy yet?
