Oh YES I am glad
We've had some lovely lovely days and some horrid days (the the okay ones). It's been pretty up and down
DS has mostly had a good time, he's been out and about playing football, swimming, and tried a taster Karate session which he enjoyed.
DD2 had some nice days as well, had fun, and tried to be helpful and kind....but managed to spectacularly prove how much she has to learn about what is safe and what is not, when she offered to make me a lemsip for my horrendous headache. I gave her the key to the medicine cabinet and she decided to crush in and add another 10 paracetamol tablets into the glass on top of the 1000mg already in the lemsip. At least I only took one tiny sip before realising it looked wrong and tasted too nasty. I seriously need to make sure she doesn't do this to herself when I'm not around to hand her pills when she needs them
Easter Saturday was mostly calm and relaxed and fun
DD2 made yesterday just great for me by stealing my Easter egg, eating most of it and then when I told her to give the rest of it back to me, she ran and flushed it down the loo to spite me. DS tried to give me one of his to make up for it. Then the two of them got into a half hour non stop shouting match, and for the first time in weeks DS had to give pocket money to the swear jar for an inventive use of the f word. Although DD's lovely language far surpassed that, especially when she started shouting at me because DS went outside. Then she had a massive tantrum in her room, clothes everywhere, stuff all over the floor, I thought the light down below was going to come off the ceiling
Today is tense. No one's had a fight or shouted but the leftover tension is pervading the house
I can't wait to have it to myself!!!!
