    I have never been an official dfw Twinklie :o, although in my head I think of myself as one, I have only been working on the mortgage all the time, but this is where I feel most at home, where my friends are, and anyhow I'm on the mfit thread over there :D:D

    We've just got back from the beach, it was lovely down there, ds played with his bucket and spade, then paddled and splashed a lot :D:D
    He wanted an ice-cream on the way back, but being me I persuaded him to go to Somerfield where we bought a litre of Carte D'or choccy ice-cream and brought it home and put it in a cone with hundreds and thousands on the top ;):D

    Ooh, I could quite fancy ice cream right now - but I am NOT going to ruin my long awaited NSD........

    Evening :D Still trying to get ds to go to sleep tonight :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

    Today was a fairly normal day, spent £8 in tesco express, but if i'd gone to the proper tesco it would have been a lot higher.

    I booked a mystery shop for the start of next month at a small supermarket, got 10p on the scratchcard and thats about it :D

    Thanks ZTD, well the specialist said he wants to monitor it, and I have to go back in 3 weeks for another xray to see how its doing. If its smaller then its a cyst thats going away all by itself, if its the same size then he has to operate to remove it and do a bone graft to replace the bone :eek: and if its grown bigger then its probably a tumour and thats not good :o:o He thinks it will probably be the first one, so fingers crossed he's right :rolleyes: :o

    We went to football tonight and ds was awful; major screaming tantrums because a bigger boy tackled him and he fell over :o He spent the rest of the session crying / screaming basically was uncontrollable yet again. I am thinking more and more along the adhd lines, partly as I have read that emotionally they are approx 2 yrs behind their peers, and this fits in perfectly with him :o I just wish we could go somewhere and I and he could relax and enjoy it without worrying about his behaviour, and without everyone else looking at me/him like he's a monster :o:o Am just feeling a bit down about it all tonight really, I just dont see any end to this behaviour, if anything I see it getting worse as he gets older and is physically stronger than me, I can hardly control him now :o
