Late birthday

Today was the birthday of my late grandmother in law. Bless her, she was very sweet. I only found nout in the evening when my partner went to her grave. They drank some OVD to her and poured the rest over the grave.

I got some computer games delivered today. I am really glad that they arrived today. I was expecting them tomorrow. They are mystery games. I have really enjoyed playing the one game. It is different to what I normally would play. It has been fun.

Lie in day

I must admit that by the time that my Sunday lie in comes I really need it (even though I have a lie in on Friday I really do need the Sunday one as well)

Busy today

the rest of the computer bits arrived today, and my partner got my computer up and running.

Old photographs and broken computer

My computer has broken again. My parter then went to put the new mother board and processor in, but was not able to get it to work as the RAM does not fit in the mother board.

Though my youngest son might have killed my new processor as my partner did not stop him from playing with it while I was not in the room. We will find out on Saturday to see if it does not work.

I was looking through the old photographs that I found in the shed. They are in really good condition considering where they have been. It has made me realize that I do need to lose some weight though. However looking at the photographs It made me realize that I was not fat and ugly. I do now appreciate my figure and while I would like to lose some weight, that is just so I can fit in a lot of my clothes. I just need to learn to appreciate my face now.

Never ending

I just seem to be doing endless housework, but never making any progress (well I do for a shiort while but it is not long before it is back to how it was before)

I have been really on edge today as well. I am going to make sure that I get to bed at a decent time so that I can get a good sleep (It took me a while to get to sleep last night)

Still tired

I will try a few good sleeps first, however if that does not work then I will go to the doctors and get some iron tablets.

Working out

I have done well with my dancing.

No time off

A triple one for me today. Very tired (my fault for going to bed too late last night), my partner was not able to take the wee ones to his mums house and he will not be taking them tomorrow. However I will be getting a lie in and if he is off on Tuesday he will take them across then.

Once again...I am so...

Tired. I think that maybe I need to get some more iron tablets for now. i also need to improve my sleeping habits.

I did have a lie in but all throughout the day I was feeling really tired and falling asleep when I was sitting down. I was also really snippy with the wee ones at some points. I was not happy about that, but thankfully I was able to feel better and then spend nice time with them. I was able to tell them how good they had been when they sat still to watch the SpongeBob movie before they went to bed.

I also cleaned the living room. I gave it the best clean that it has had in a while.

I am happy

I am very happy (well unfortunately it meant that I was later going to bed than I had planned) but I found out that one of the Japanese bands that I really like have updated their blog. Hopefully that means that they are over the worst and that they are starting to feel better about their loss.

Really tired

I have felt so tired today that my head has felt funny.

I have also now got so much cleaning to do. My partner managed to knock a cupboard off the wall. thankfully he was able to get it back on and it was a good opportunity to sort through it and clear out some things.

There is rice scattered about the place though. I think I will be spending all day cleaning.

Valentines day

We did not do much. It was a normal day for us. However when I went out to the shop I decided that I would get something for the night. I got some mulled wine and some candles.

we sat and watched father of the bride II while the candles burned and we drank mulled wine followed by tea in the cups that I got.

It was a really nice night, and it just goes to show that you do not have to do too much for valentines day. Just spending time together is good enough.

I think my youngest son had a good day at nursery as well. The teachers did not say anything.

Dealing with my youngest

After a wobbly moment last night when I lost my temper with my youngest, today has gone much better.

I spent time with him, I asked him how he felt and I talked with him. He did seem to pick up during the day and while in the morning he was not happy when I asked him how he was feeling, later on he told me that he was fine. He did not seem to be as angry as well. we have to keep this up every day though. When we deal with him we cannot raise out voices.

He seems to ahve totally lost his confidence, he says that he is a bad boy and that he hates himself.

When I put him to bed he was upset at the idea of going to nursery tomorrow. He was reassured when I said that I said that I would spend some time there with him. I will be speaking to the teachers about him.

My partner is really feeling stressed at the moment as his daughter has also got into trouble for something that she said.

 Wee ones certainly are a challenge.

Youngest son in trouble

This always seems to happen on a Friday when my partner takes the wee ones in and collects them.

My youngest son is in trouble at nursery. He has become aggressive and has been throwing toys. He has not been getting on well with one of the boys there. The nursery has said that if he continues as he is they will not allow him into nursery.

I am worried about him as I really do not want for him not to be allowed to go to nursery.

My partner and I have really got to do something about this and now. We both have to deal with how we react to the wee ones. Do our best to make sure that we do not get too mad when dealing with them. My partner has got to stop some of the things that he says to him.

I have also told my son to stay away from the boy while he is having trouble with him. I will also ask the nursery to keep them apart. I really hope that this boy is not going to school this year, or if he is I hope they are not in the same class.

At least I have not heard anything about my daughter though and my eldest has been doing well.

I think I will have a look on the Internet to see if there are any tips for dealing with angry children.

On a lighter note I have decided to make up a chart to see how much I spend on the lottery compared to how much I win. I am going to keep this chart going for a year to see how much it is.

Early start

Because my step daughter stopped over I got up with her in the morning. That meant that I was up at 6.30.

I am very much looking forward to getting my lie in tomorrow morning.

Need more sleep

I have been a bad girl recently. I have been getting to bed too late so I have been suffering for it.

I even fell asleep at the photography club committee meeting. thankfully I only drifted off and I caught myself before I properly fell asleep, but it was noticed that I had dozed off. Thankfully after a wee giggle about it they moved on and did not mention it again.

Rain, snow and sun

All in one day. All we needed was some strong wind (though it does sound like it has picked up at the moment) to really complete the day of mad weather.

I was not expecting it in the morning so I got wet. The den was flooded so I had to take the wee ones wellies across when I collected.

Time off

I had some time off today when my partner took the wee ones to his mums house.

Lie in day

Friday is here and it is my turn for a lie in. I really needed it as well.

I slept in until 11. I feel much better for it.

Though it was not long before I was stressed. I do not know why but I was really stressed not long after the wee ones got in. I needed to take a moment to get myself settled. Thankfully that did not happen again.

I did get bad tempered later but thankfully I manged to resolve that as well. I really would like to reach a point when I did not get like that again.

The weather is still wild today. Windy, rainy (I am very glad that I did not do the school run) I did need to go out to the shops but I borrowed my partners waterproof clothes, so that helped so much. They were so good that my clothes underneath were still dry when I got home.

I am shattered at the moment though, I decided after my partner told me that he wanted to try out my Hip hop workout that I would do it. I have not done it for ages. I really feel like it has done me some good. It was great fun though.

Getting angry

I really have to do something about my younge4st son. He really can get angry at times. He is doing somethings that I have done. I need to make sure that I do not do it again.

Wet wake up call

I got a wet wake up call this morning when I woke up to discover that my daughter had sadly wet the bed. She was not happy about it at all, and I woke up quicker than any alarm clock could have done.

I was woken up at just before seven. Though I must confess that even though it was earlier than I had intended, I did not feel too bad for getting up at that time. I am thinking about maybe getting up a wee bit earlier. I will see how it goes though. I do need to make sure that I get to bed at a decent time so that I am not too tired tomorrow. I need to keep my senses alert as I will be performing a spell.
