Good
morning all, didn't get around to doing a post yesterday thought
about it many times during the day but just couldn't find motivation
to do one so you got nothing but today is a new day and I am feeling
more motivated to do a post so here we go, in fact I am going to
write a couple of posts today. I like to have at least one written
and stored in my unposted blog file.
At
the moment I am sitting waiting for mum to arrive to get me and Leo
and take Leo to school and her and I will go and see my nan her mum.
We usually take Leo to school now on Wednesdays in mum's car before
going to the nursing home to see nan.
Mum
and Dave are still struggling with little Landon's toilet training,
he is getting better but he is 4 now and still has many times when he
either wets or poos his undies, he knows when he wants to go to the
toilet but often chooses not to go but as I said he is getting better
and more and more days he will go and use the toilet then you have
days like yesterday when mum losses it with him as he doesn't use the
toilet.
Mum
put him on the toilet twice in the morning when she noticed him
acting like he was going to poo, but then he was outside playing with
Denni, when she ran inside to tell nanna that Landon was doing a poo
in his undies. So mum gets him and can tell he has done it and she
was not happy, she lost it with him telling him he knows better and
why would he do that. She didn't smack or anything and she didn't
yell but she was very angry and he knew it, she had to put him in the
bath tub to remove his undies and clean him up. Then what does he do,
when she goes to the toilet to get toilet paper to pick it up with
and flush, she returns to see him trying to push it down the drain,
yuck that didn't help mum's mood.
Mum
is here so me and Leo are off, we drop him at school before going to
see nan.
I
am now back from going to see nanna and doing some shopping, mum
always go to the shops after we see nanna and she usually gets
something for Dave for lunch the last few weeks it has been Subway.
I
don't know why but for some reason the woman now sharing nan's room
at the nursing home annoys both me and mum, we don't like her
listening in to our conversations, ok really there isn't anything she
is doing that is annoying but for whatever reason both mum and I feel
annoyed when we arrive and see her in her bed.
In
other news Natasha has found a private rental place in Cardiff which
is 5-10 minutes from me so Blain will be going back to staying with
his mum from what I have been told this will make Blain happy, it is
a 3 bedroom house with a pick back yard has only a short lease but it
is something cheaper then the motel and a hell of a lot more room.
Tim
has booked another few days away in the caravan, we will be going to
Port Macquarie next month around the middle of the month so Kathy is
stepping up and helping out with Leo getting him to and from school
the two days we will be away or is it three days can't remember is we
are leaving on the Friday or the Saturday will have to check with Tim
about that.
Tim
is off work today he has a couple of doctors appointments which has
just reminded me that I missed a doctors appointment on Monday will
have to ring and reschedule I still had a migraine on Monday which I
think is why I forgot, the headache wasn't as bad as it was over the
weekend but it was still there.
Moving
on Saturday here was dark, cold and wet and yesterday and today it is
very warm, hot even I am in shorts. I wish I could get Leo to wear
shorts to school but he says no he wants long pants and of course all
his long school pants have torn knees well on knee the left one. I
was looking last week for new pants for him but couldn't find any in
his size, I will keep looking. I do, however, has about 6 pairs of
school shorts and we are coming into summer so hopefully we can get
him to wear them.
Ok
that is all from me for this post
Oh my goodness what cute children! I hope your migraines are better. I've never had one but I hear they are horrible!
ReplyDeleteSometimes instinct is a funny thing... best to do a Nan inventory when you visit...
ReplyDeleteWhen we see her there are three nans me, mum and nan also three mums, me, mum and nan...........just saying
DeleteI'm glad you are getting away for a few days. You deserve it! :)
ReplyDeleteI am looking forward to it too
DeleteI am VERY glad you are getting away. You need and deserve it. You are extraordinarily hard working. I want to see you get a break.
ReplyDeleteThe trouble with nursing homes is no privacy for either of the patients. Maybe that person is unable to leave? But having two people is hard surely. You must listen to either family that comes in...listen to entertainment noise, and etc. Your Nan goes through a lot. xox When is her next birthday?
She will be 96 next May, the woman who shares her room can leave she just doesn't which is annoying.
DeleteAh yes, the joys of potty training. Fun fun!
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry you had a migraine. I had a four day migraine last week after a road trip. Ugh. Was a rough one. Hope you're 100% feeling better now. I know sometimes it can take a couple of days to recover completely from them.
Hell yeah I am glad that those days of toilet training are behind me, the hardest child to toilet train was Leo all my girls were a breeze.
DeletePotty training still gives me nightmares. I used to have a daycare business and I was a nanny. I can't tell you how many I have potty trained in those 30 years! Not to mention, 3 of my own.
ReplyDeleteI don't miss that part of parenthood.
Yeah it can be so stressful, although all my girls were easy to toilet train, Leo was a bloody nightmare though
DeleteYou are always so busy with your family. Good idea to take a break.
ReplyDeleteYeah I looking forward to the break away .
