    well that was fun...

    Not sure why but DD has had a shocker of a day! Starting at morning tea time when she threw a tanty (ending up banging her head on her high chair tray) because I picked her plate of fruit up off the floor, when she wasn't anywhere near it and had seemingly finished eating
    Have had a few little tanties this afternoon, ending about 5 mins ago when she started screaming and trying to throw herself on the floor because I wouldn't let her press buttons on our answering machine or open the door to the plastics cupboard (which I'd just put back together after she pulled everything out while I was cooking dinner)..so took her off to bed quicksmart, where she then got one back by giving me a good poke in the eye (and trying to scratch/bite me while I was carrying her into her room). Ouch!

    Cheering for silence tonight, hopefully it stays that way. And wishing I had some coke, I could go a big cold glass of Malibu & Coke right now (and I don't drink very often at all!).

    Sounds like we had similar days! I've just finished a scotch and coke, enjoying the peace and quiet!

    Hope your eye is ok.

    Must have been the day for it! I was longing for a nice cold glass of vodka, lime and soda earlier. Settled for a cuppa tea and a packet of chocolate wheatens.

    Well, at least I know I wasn't alone! Lol. Sadly, I will have to go a nice cold glass of non-alcoholic lemonade & red cordial

    the audacity of it - taking her fruit when she'd finished! nasty mum it's amazing what sets them off! the other day here was because he couldn't open a door handle. i understand that it's frustration & all that but geeez it gets a bit tiring!

    hope your eye is ok & today is a much better one for you

    we've been having more of those days than not of late... It's not much fun is it, but then of course they go and do something super cute and win you over again.
