I think it must be PMT but had a build up of cases recently where people have been making out they're oh so hard done by, the first takes the biscuit but the others are annoying. If anything I've given you a first class menu idea for fussy eaters.
Ex H bought DC back and for some reason whilst he was there, eldest DC says I know Dad pays Santa every year, then he gets it from a list. Good on eldest DC for playing along for youngest DC. Dad is going to take us to 'x' which happens to be the most popular place to see Santa. We're going to play 'y' whilst in the queues. I've found the allure of Santa was at its finest the younger DC were, where last time eldest figured they weren't really on a train and a curtain was just moving round and round. TBH I think youngest DC will catch on they're not in lap land. When eldest DC was younger ex H had a career change funded by myself so it wasn't always as it is now, he insists on say eldest DC getting laptop and desk layout for his room. Whilst youngest gets the Lego sets instead of using the 5 tonne of Lego we have to build their version of whatever is the latest toy. I just didn't feel like arguing the same point so dropped it with a sarcastic isn't Daddy great.
I was in A&E at silly ok clock by myself, a school Mum was there too, we got talking and her DC had a cough, she decided at 1am to go to A&E as it was keeping her awake, linctus just wasn't working. From what I gather it was just the result of sniffles, but the DC got the badge, certificate and lolly pop for being brave. I was out of action a week, when I next did the school run I checked in, other parents were going about bravery and how bad it was. Mum was pretty much glaring at me as I looked puzzled. She'd fed them this heroics story but just to call it her DC's cough in front of them as it wasn't to be spoke about. She was out the door between 3am & 4am, said DC was tearing about like nothing much was wrong apart from the odd cough. The pudding was so over egged Sainsbury's had a shortage.
I heard my ultimate first world problem, a Mum who likes to get her family the best presents, how she won't be here Friday as she has to sit by Amazon all day in case she misses any amazing deals. How did we cope before Black Friday? How do very annoying school kicking out time for her DC coincides with the turning of an hour, as Amazon will save all the best deals till then to piss off us school Mum's. Thank goodness for another parent taking over. We should all get rotas just in case, or maybe if that obsessed sit on our phones, but they don't update as quick as pressing F5 a hundred times.
The one time I bought into it I recall a Lightning Deal on some electronic, which everyone pressed buy at the hour, regardless of whether it was Love Honey's finest or a 32 inch TV. Then you joined a waiting list for another hour as some must have clicked at the speed of lightning! (No pun intended!) One time a teas maid might be handy!
Don't start me on the Dad who is literally taking his DC to lap land (should School say yes) for 4 days, how it's far more educational than school could ever be, with travelling, a shit tonne of real snow and different cuisines. (Fish Fingers made with real actual flaked fish on a bed of pomme purée & seasonal veg Birds Eye Mums need to up their game!)
