Hello,
Quick one from me as have been neglecting DCs all day but feeling v unmotivated to do anything. Feeling quite pissed off as DH has been away for 10 days, my parents were meant to be staying all week but decided to bugger off to help my SIL this morning, so I have organised nothing to do, and DH has e-mailed me to say "Oh might miss my connection so not be back until mid-afternoon tomorrow", fucking great you could have figured that out earlier. Thanks. I am sick of being on my own with them, especially bloody DS and his shit attempt at toilet training, I am getting seriously fed up with it now, nursery say he is doing really well, but I don't consider still almost never going to teh potty of his own accord after two weeks doing well. And he will happily have poo accidents as well as wee ones, which are obviously grim. I just want to give up as it's fucking tedious, he will reliably wee on the potty if I ask him to and goes a reasonable amount of time between but that's not much use with having a normal life, basically unless you force him onto the potty or he vaguely needs a wee when you ask and he's NOT engrossed in something else he will go of his own accord, otherwise he needs to be coerced and will deny he needs a wee as he wants to keep playing then will just have a wee where he stands 5 minutes later. And he really doesn't care if he has accidents.
Oh I had loads of personals stuff to say but now I am just annoyed and fed up.
going back ages, AAAAA, I would not have been able to resist reading the diaries, but sounds like a good idea not to read any more. I think lady's point about writing more low points in diaries is a good one though. I am not a fan of pot either, it makes me giggly and unable to speak and then paranoid about the fact I can't speak.
Oh lady you asked about DS's eating, savoury repertoire is now bread, cheese, houmous, pasta and pesto, plain or cheesy pasta, fish fingers, salmon and occasionally plain chicken. that's about it! Have given up caring though. But he eats fruit and yoghurt and cake, etc too. DD still a pig.
JJ hurrah on the sleep. That is great. DH and I have had similar arguments to you in the middle of the night. Anything except leaving them to scream indefinitely is defined as "hippy parenting" so infuriating, and DH can also sleep through them screaming as well, so he'd go "oh I can't get her to settle down, I'll just have to leave her". ARGHGHGHGHG! Beating with a rolling pin's too good for them. JJ tricky one on the godson. Maybe you could just ignore and say you don't use it that much? Or could you add him and then add him to a limited view list or something, or is that too complicated. I am friends with my friend's daughters on there though, they are 14 and 13, and I just don't worry about it too much. They don't have post some crap though! Isn't 10 a bit young to be on facebook?
Oh and vag going back a bit I loved you thrashing snobby supposedly fit woman on your bike with both kids in tow! Awesome.
trace Great North Run sounds good, I did it ages ago pre kids, maybe I should come and join you! (and the vagmeister). I do agree exercise is good for mood, you have to keep it up though or you get in a bad mood you are not doing exercise and then as you are in a bad mood you don't want to - arghghghghg! Not that I am comparing bad moods to proper depression if you see what I mean. Gah, sorry if that all sounds like nonsense.
Poor E, I have been ignoring him so had better go. (dd asleep)
lady hope d had a happy birthday and you get the allergy thing sorted out soon...
