Pigpen :eek: One things for sure - you never have chance for a dull moment in your house.

I'm no child expert, but I wonder whether it is about attention seeking for both of them - the bad behaviour has caused you to react and give attention (hardly surprising!) Any chance of you 'praising' good behaviour and 'ignoring' the bad - so that good behaviour becomes what they get the attention for. And yes, I would kick off and demand proper assistance for DD's wettingness. I imagine you as a red head. :rotfl:

Slight problem chez-Mrs B this week. Historically, I've had both feet reconstructed, and one of them was bothering me last week, and yesterday afternoon was hurting in all the wrong places. Anyway, managed to be seen at the Walk in Centre today (GP would have been some time middle of next month) and I have soft tissue damage, bruising, swollen poorly foot. Solution. Three days elevation (I'm sure she said above head, but don't think I'm fit enough for that), painkillers and anti-inflammatories - and that's put me out of the office too.

So, request to Pigpen for one flying job a day I can do with my foot elevated above my head.

Mr B doesn't know he's on nurse duties .......... yet!

Oh, and whichever Flylady told me to accept help from everyone who offered it ............ I have been doing, bar one silly moment this afternoon ............. and I've had the most amazing offers. :T All sorts of things crossed of my "must do this week list" because people have pitched in to help me out.

Now I must go and write a new list.

I've hoovered all the way through now, but still not had my run Off to do that now but will be shorter than I wanted - never mind After my run it will be shower, dinner then bed Ironing will have to wait until tomorrow x

Pigpen my 2p worth, get any and all the referrals you can. I feel your frustration, what about making her responsible for stripping, washing (by hand possibly) drying and remaking her bed. It might make her think twice about deliberate 'accidents' if she has to deal with the consequences.

Courgette

Not a bad first day flying at all, all level 1 done, most level 2 and some level 3. Also gave the bathroom a good clean so that will be easier when it comes up. Also made a batch of muffins, not mse or waist friendly at all bit very yummy. Nappies in the wm too will hang up before bed

Thanks for the support, see you tomorrow!

Pigpen-Could be attention, could be physical problem, could be pschological, until seen by someone you and she will never know, so push for a referral on, shouldnt be hard if shes attending the clinic already, they have the contacts! In the meantime try to be calm about it, and I second the idea of getting her to deal with the bedding etc, she's plenty old enough to do it!

Helen baby is due the end of March, but I reckon it will be here on St Patrick's Day.

Managed to do a load of washing, but little else.
