Oh she is very very bright! She is so aware of everything around her. She goes to Nursery on a Tuesday.
I did start her at a playgroup a couple of weeks ago.Its just starting up again in the next village.Unfortunately at the moment there is only her and another little lad, alas he has autism, and throws tantrums and stresses as he cannot communicate what he wants and the nursery pointed out that she was "different and not herself" when she went to Nursery the following day. She also threw the tantrums when we were out with Molly on Wednesday.
I fear she thinks that as he can do it, so can she!!
I am not sure I will send her again. Not just because of this, but also because we have the move coming up. Then she will be moving to another nursery. If I can find one nearer to me, it would make more sense.
I shall start to look for one asap. I have to give the current Nursery 2 months notice. (why is everythng 2 months notice these days?).

Right I have 20 minutes before the first appointment of the day.

There is a really good little nursery just around the corner from the new house called Little Oaks. A five minute walk. You are right about her being as bright as a button! No flies on DGD!

Well I am back from the visit to the solicitors. Except it never happened.
I took Twin1 to sign on, sat waiting with her and DGD (being a noisy, rot bag), and then we were walking down the town to the golden arches for some chips, to while away the time, when we bumped into twin2 and her BF, so they hung around with us. We had our meal, they had a milkshake each.
While there the solicitor rang, he had to cancel our appointment, something came up. He did talk to me on the phone, and I managed to tell him whats occuring, and what Gizmo mentioned. he agreed with Gizmo and has basically told me to leave it with him while he investigates why they are pushing me. That should take a bit longer.
DGD was not the best of children and is over tired. There is no surprise there then.
Twin1 stayed with me, and the others went on to their signing on.
DS is not coming home until Wednesday now. So I am not thrilled with him.

I am exhausted now, too much walking. Luckily twin1 took charge of the lifting/pushing buggy etc for DGD so I didnt have to do any of that. Phew.

Is DGD acting up anymore than in a usual week, or is it just bothering you more this week? I know sometimes even the little things can annoy you (me and everyone else) when we are stressed or have other things on our minds. The only thing I can suggest is stick with a routine and be VERY consistant in your ways of disciplining her and it'll all come together. xxx

yes she is acting up much more then she usually does. It has been since she started at the new playgroup when we got back off of holiday. Even BF noticed at the weekend. I am being as consistant as I can. I am being as calm as I can. But it is getting to me more.
Its here behaviour that is stressing me the most.

I have just told my neighbour (Landlords mother) that I am leaving. Told her I had written to him, that its 2 months, but that although my heart doesnt want to leave here, it has 3 bedrooms, and is near the doctors and on a bus route etc. She understood where I was coming from. I was worried about telling her, as she has been very good to me.

A trip to town always wears me out!. But tomorrow I also have the dentist.
I wanted DS to come home and to help clear out the shed. The biggest mess, and he has made other arrangements. I know, I should have stood my ground, but I was so tired I didnt. I will have to toughen up with him. As otherwise DGD will also be the same later on in life!.

DGd has just had scrambled egg and toast for her tea, as she has cracked the eggs and whisked them, and put the toast in the toaster for me. I have sausages in the oven, that I had defrosted this morning, and therefore need to cook.So I will have mine later when they are ready. Its easier to do them in the oven then I dont have to stand over them. I know its dearer on the electric, but my arm is saved.

Morning, well we had a bit of a lie in. I am now back from the dentist. In the end he has decided that its best to loose the tooth, so I have to go back again in a couple of weeks.
The rest of the day is mine. DGD is at Nursery, a bit late but that was becuase I cannot find where her school bag was! I remember putting it somewhere safe, but I cannot remember where that is! I spent nearly an hour looking for it. Am frustrated as its rather large, brightblue like a brief case, so where could I have put it?
I am tired, I went to bed at about 10.30. But somehow the alarm on my telephone has been set for midnight, and I was woken. This has happened for the last few days, so DGD must have pressed buttons as DS hasnt been home, and I didnt even know it had an alarm.! I will have to play with it later and see if I can get it turned off!
Then DGD woke in tears around 2.15am. After sitting her on the potty and settling her, it was about 40 minutes before I went back to sleep.
Then I woke at 6am!! Struggled to move, had my teasmade at hand, took my tablets and then was just finishing my tea when DGD woke again.
I feel as if its bedtime already, and that I have been knocked over with a sledgehammer.!

I wanted to have energy to do some decluttering today.

It may be better if you set your alarm and go to bed for an hour. I was so tired all day yesterday and feel like the day went in a blur. I wish I had taken my own advice! Any way, hopefully a little nap will leave you feeling energized and help you get through the day. x

Just catching up with the thread Mooloo

Dont worry about the neighbour - my house is over 250 years old and has had several people die in it and still has lovely energy. I am sure that your house will too.

There are loads of colds going around at the moment, my two at 13 and 11 still get grotty when coming down with something but it may also be the house move is worrying her a bit. She will know that something is changing and may feel unsettled, as frustrating as it is for you once you have moved I am sure she will settle once you have moved.

Take care of yourself - last thing you want is to come down with the same cold, but we are all thinking of you

Well my sleep was ruined by the phone, first the removal firm as they had my email address incorrect. Then about an hour later, maybe less, DS rang wanting to know the cinema times. When I said I was upstairs in bed and not on the computer, why didnt he go to his granddad and ask them, he started raising his voice and was very hostile to me. I also said I thought he was coming home with me tonight, and he was really bollshy. He istn coming home until tomorrow now! When i asked and it was I dont know. so it will be telephone calls again tomorrow and my world changed around for him.
I really am fed up, and upset. Infact after he had been shouting at me, I just cried.
I didnt bother trying to go back to sleep, I would only have tossed and turned.

I am still feeling very disgruntled and would sometimes like to throttle him! Any contact these days seems to be confrontational.!
I just wish I had energy and then I could clear out his junk first!
I think that my body has told me that yesterday was too much, and its just not going to be upto speed today and I better get used to it. So I am now frustrated as well!!.
