Someone please tell me how important it is to take ds1 to nursery today

[TambaTheWuss]

I if dont it will be the start of a slippery slope..

I have days like this sometimes, where I have to force myself to get out of bed as I am exhausted (I have sleep problems as a symptom of some crappy low immune system which I am under the hospital for)

All Ive done today is give the kids breakfast, dress ds2 and force myseld to eat breakfast in the hope that it would help.

I will have to get the bus 4 times today, take him there, come home, pick him up and come home and it seems like a mountain because I am so tired.

If i go I have to leave the house at 12. I know I should take him but all i want to do is curl up and go to sleep.

Kick up the Arse needed please!

MSN now young lady.

Can you not curl up and sleep for an hour or so whilst he is at nursey?

I will still have ds2 at home and a pile of housework today. Im not supposed to sleep during the day as im meant to be working on getting a good sleep pattern going. I would be alright if BT hadnt phoned me at 8am this morning and woken the kids up. Yesterday I told them they were rude to call so early and to call back after 10 etc.. this morning when the phone went at 8am I told them to piss off and ring back at a decent hour

I have just sent her to get dressed.

Nobody speak to her until she reports back dressed.

Lets hope i dont bump into any mnners today or there will be a thread started about some scruffy mum theyve seen and the school gate people are never gonna want to talk to me looking like this...oh never mind! Yesterdays clothes I can not start ironing things now! And they dont smell clean knickers though. I am even tempted to phone mil and ask her to take them but if i start looking for ways out of it then i will always be looking for ways out and building it up to be something huge iyswim and its not! Its just taking my little man to school...so why does it feel like an uphill trek???

Your MIL

The one who does not use seat belts ??

Why is the nursery so far away? I would go doolally doing what you are doing! My ds's school is literally - and I mean literally - one minute away from my house.

You have my sympathy Tamba. Now ds has started nursery it means me going backwards and forwards 6 times a day, it's driving me nuts already.

Can you not get him in at a closer nursry ??

Mine isn't mega close, but I can walk it in 15ish minutes.

Bite the bullet and get into the routine, Tamba.
it isn't fair on him, otherwise.
IMHO.

Yes that one LGJ - although I would have gone with her. The nursery is about a half hour walk away and is the second closest school to us. There is one about 3 mins away but that is a muslim school and we are CofE.

Both kids dressed. Me looking like a scruff and dressed. 10 mins til coat on time. At least the bus stop is at the end of the road. Will take ds2 in his buggy, have to fold it for the bus, no doubt get sworn at and shoved around like I was yesterday by some nasty old man whilst standing holding ds2 and trying to keep hold of ds1. I think it just seems like a huge hassel.

But he loves it and I will get used to it.

Thanks for the kick! Sometimes its what i need to get moving and I totallt agree with you blu, I have to get into the routing of doing this as it wouldnt be fair on ds1 otherwise.

TAMBA!

stop it.

you have a responsibility to take him to nursery. He likes nursery.

Does he go all year round or is it termly?

I feel like this every bloody morning ferrying my two round to nursery/school and getting myself off to work AND I am 24 weeks pg!

Get going girl. Can you buy yourself a nice mag or something on the way home to read when you get in?

I really dont know how you do it enid!

We are ready - thanks to some serious talking to from LGJ!

I had my next hospital appointment come through this morning which is great, I hate feeling like a zombie!

Thanks all, we are off in a sec.

serious talking more like serious shouting. Off you go.

Am back.

The fresh air has done me wondwers and I am ready to tackle the housework I am so glad I went although we saw a bus coming and ran for it [unfit emotion] so we were 25 mins early! We walked around the shops with DS moaning "my friends are waiting for me" and "Dont make me late"

Thanks all, I think this is going to be a good thing for me long term, i feel so much better than I did this morning!

SEE!

Glad you went he needs his friends he was worried he would be late for them if you hadnt taken him he wouldnt have seen them at all and that would have been a big shame all round.
