Weekly Flylady Thread 28th February 2011

This morning when I did the bathroom I bleached the bath. I don't knw why, I'd just cleaned it as normal, but had the bleach (which I dn't use much because of septic tank) out and thought I would...the dirt that came away was revolting, I've never seen anything quite like it. Tonight I had the best bath I've had here since moving last summer. I'm horrified that the bathroom cleaners I use have left that much grime on, and more hrrified that it wasn't visible on the bath.

Pigpen - did DD have a reason for storing those items

No.. she is just lazy... and gross.

I have an issue...

DD3 I need to know whether killing her is a viable option..

She wets the bed every night.. she likes being wet.. nothing stops her.. she 'dribbles' during the day so she is constantly wet (and smelly and sore) .. this is not new..

tonight.. she has stripped naked, bar her t-shirt climbed onto her bed (midsleeper) and wee'd over the edge of the bed onto clothes and toys on the floor and down the side of her bed.

We are back at pi$$y clinic on Wednesday and obviously I am telling them this is her latest disgusting habit.. so do I demand a referral to a phychologist/psychiatrist, urology? Or what? I know it sounds awful but I think she might be schitzophrenic.. or very nearly..

I did tell her I would rub her face in it like an animal if she is going to behave like an animal, made her clean it up, berated her severely and smacked her leg.. dirty little troll.. And.. because I am so evil I left the wet sheet on (it is only a little bit at the side of the mattress so she won't be on it)

I am really really angry .. no I'm not angry.. I am thoroughly disgusted and disappointed.

Is she a complete fruitcake and I am over reacting or is this almost as gross as a drawer full of ST's???

How old is she?? it is as gross as the STs I'd be livid too. Sounds almost like she's doing it for the attention. Hard to know how to get round that one. ugh..sorry to not be very constructive, but am sending dry vibes

flying wise.. I've cleared a major hotspot in the kitchen, and er.. that's it

Hmm Piggers, I think I would be tempted to ask for a psych referral, unless there is something physical going on? Obviously you are already attending the clinic with her though.

I do think the used towels is still worse though

Pigpen - how old is she? My DD has only just started to go through the night dry but still manages to be dribble all day everyday - hers is a bladder issue though but she refuses to acknowledge that she needs to change after school, is always sore but it doesn't bother her at all infact sometimes she seems quite proud of it - I'm hoping that as she gets older she will realise that she smells and others can smell her too [big school will be a shock if she doesn't get a grip] I have learnt to completely ignore my feelings over it as Health Visitor and Doctor said that some of it was an attention seeking action [especially daytime accidents] I now take a deep breath and react calmly and just deal with the washing but............... I have so wanted to murder her sometimes over it so know exactly how you feel

Piggers.... and

I'm in again - thanks to those FCC I need all the help I can get.

Kitchen looking ok but could do better and the washing and ironing is under control.

DH is away for a few days so enjoying a lazy evening with the remote though I must type up some Minutes in a moment.

I've been for a job interview today, the job would mean money becoming much easier but I'm really very unsure about it and hope they take the decision out of my hands and offer it to the other candidate - is that awful?

Love hugs and spoons to all.

Looby-Lou
