aww thanks :) he's gone to bed one HYPER little boy!!! i started to put up the deocorations just after i put him in bed and put 3 balloons on the out side of the door, of course he comes a creaping down the stairs.... OOOOOooohhhhh mummy (bout the only time he calls me mummy now-a-days!!!) what have you done to the door??? there was me in the front room sorting out the dec's in here so i had to quickly come out the front room and shut the door! to at least keep the front room a suprise! lol so ushered him in to the toilet and sent him back up to bed pretty quickly! ... he then proceeds but pretty much running up his bed and clonking his head one on the wooden frame so has now got a nice big bruise and bump just above his nose!!!!!!!!
well were both in the wars today! he's bashed his head one! and i went over on my ankle again! (did it a couple months ago!) but this time it was increadably painfull so hobbled down to town and the drs and asked to see someone, the dr thinks i'v just torn my ligaments so i'v got it strapped up by them and ended up doin it again when got home as it had slipped down!!!! but they say if it's not better by friday to go down and get an xray booked in at hospital! FUN! lol
my step dad is still in hospital :( which he's really ... REALLY not happy about, they did a blood test on him yesterday and found something wrong .. there not sure what! .. but there keeping him in to make sure things settle down and he's got to have lots more tests done!
as i was down drs i had to phone me mum up to see if she can pick my son up from school and THANKFULLY she actually looked at her phone before she got too far put of town! so she picked my son up from school and took him off to see grandad at hospital, this morning he turned to me and said that he wanted to see him with out me! just him and mamar!!! lol so he got his wish with out knowing it! haha!! But all the way there they had road works and what ever else and so ended up getting there for 4 and they'd just taken him off for some scans so she said never mind we'll go get a drink from the cafe and come back, they brought him back for 5 and visit times are 3-5 the staff turned to her and said you do know what time visiting times are dont you!? she was like YES but when YOU'VE taken him for tests during those times you don't expect me to just go home do you! so they said she can stay till there tea gets there! so they were able to see him for about 10/15 mins at least!
well cuz i'v done my ankle in she's called my brother to do the pick up tomorrow! :) saves me tryin to hobble round!! so i'v got to print of a mini map to show which houses i'v been too so he can go round tomorrow and pick up the books and everything! lol i'm goin to judge weather i got to work tomorrow by if i can get up there in the morning to take birthday boy to schoo! lol so will see what happends :)

well my mum brought the best pressy home for my son! ... and all my son kept sayin everytime we said to him look who's come home just for your birthday! ... is I don't know! haha!!!!!!!!!!! but yes he's home now! :D
My ankle is pretty bad at the moment! took me a whole hr to do the school round trip... it only take 10 mins there and back on a slow day :O but by time i got up there i was in compleat agony so when I saw the Depty head and she took one look at me pain stricken face told her what had happened yesterday and said i wont be in at lunch time! by time i got home i could bearly put any weight on it at all :( it was there throbbing away! i decided to keep my shoes on as thought if i take these off, if i go any where i'd prob not get them back on again! lol so i left it as it was and just got busy sorting things out (after i'd had a good sit down with my leg up of course!) Going to go in tomorrow just do a swap with some others so i don't have to do too much walking about!
Thank you for all the birthday messages :) i'v passed them on to him and he was really happy :) we'v done loads today he's opened ALL his pressents now and has played with them all :) and i think he's really enjoyed him self too :) he's now the proud owner of a dragon race track, toy story operation, draughs game, toy story marbz, normal marbles, Gruffalo lunch tin (which he's not useing at school!) room on the broom and snail and the whale books a suit case which can be dragged a long or on his back! :) cakes and cookies recipie book a MASSIVE toy story balloon, toy story stickers, toy story clock, alarm clock and watch set! and a scrapbook kit! :D oooo and a toy story swim bag!!!!!!!! :D he's on VERY HAPPY toy story little boy! hehe! ...... since getting the Toy Story box set of DVD's a couple months ago he's been toy story mad! haha! :D so when people asked what he wanted this yr it was easy cuz i could just say ANYTHING TOY STORY! lol
we had my brother and his girlfriend over for an hr (they got him all the toy story stuff (other than the balloon!)) and we had cuppa and some cake which was rather nice :) altho i'm a bit caked out now! lol cuz been cooking them in a number 5 shaped cake thing! lol when the cake rose above the top of the number i'v had to cut the top off! and of course that means i'v had bits of cake here there and every where! haha! had cake for breakfast, dinner and tea! lol
so it's been a really good day all round :) he didn't have much of a bruis when he woke up this morning just a red line and a slight dent! lol told his teacher and she's kept an eye on him today no reports back so gues he's been fine and by time i picked him up it was totally gone! :D ... quick healer! lol
well i'm goin to head off now :) thank you so much for the lovely birthday messages really means a lot :)
So pleased your son had a brilliant day hatz, fantastic presents too.
To top it off, your step-dad is home, that's great. Has he been told to take it easy for a while?
Do get your foot looked at again, an x-ray I mean. It is extremely difficult to rest it, when you have a child, I know, but you also have to look after you
xx
Birthday went really well, that's fantastic and wonderful that your stepdad is home too. Try to put your foot up to rest before the party!!
How lovely that your step-dad made it home for you son's birthday.
So glad you had a good day. And rest that foot...

well i have to say i am EXTREAMLY disapointed! :( was meant to go for my medical today, yesterday everything was booked and the lady said i'll just phone thru to arrange the transport if i don't get back to you it means it's all booked so wait at school for 9am and it'll come pick you up from there! ... 9am comes .. and gose, 9:15 comes .. and gose, was getting bit cold at this point so pop in to school and talk to the receptionest and she lets me wait in school! 9:30 come.. and gose find a number for the people that's arranged it and phone thru to them, chap on end of phone dosen't have a clue of course so i have to explain the situation and arrangements that were put in place yesterday and he say's he'll get back to me, phones the other department and ... no one in! phones the transport department! ... no bookings have been made :O so at 10 to 10am i walk home after waisting over 1/2 hr of my time :( so i'v not been for this medical, i can't start my other job and i'v really had my time well and truley WAISTED!
other than that! lol went to work and did wriggly readers after that which was pretty good! :) they had the new induction of little ones starting school come in for 20mins to meet there teacher and see what the class room is like! :) which was pretty good to see them all running past, but was also a bit of a kick in the teeth when I realised that this time last yr it was me with my son!!!!!!!! .... we find out who his teacher will be on 7th July!
well all the party food is done up! 48 cobs (24 cut in 1/2!) 12 Jellies 16 sausage rolls and 12 veg sausage rolls! cakes, biscuits, mini rolls crispy cakes lol LOADS of stuff! :) mum's goin to help me get set up and organised and then i'm kicking her out as i work a lot better with out her around! haha!!!!!!!! all i'v got to do in the morning is find the table covers out the shead and the picnic bowls! lol ... oh and put a cuttin knife in the bag! (which i think i'll do in a min!)
just tryin to think what else i need to do! ... sort the party bags back out and wrap the pass the parcle! lol
well i'm goin to get goin just got to empty my email box out and will be dne for the night! :)
What a disappointment for you hatz, can they not arrange something for next week. Does this mean you've totally lost out on the job?
Sounds like you've been busy all evening organising and preparing everything. I do hope your son has a smashing time tomorrow. What time does it start? Is it still in the park (sorry if I've missed a post on this one). I'm sure wherever it ends up, it'll go really well. Have fun. xxx
i'v not lost the job but i should have stated on monday coming so now cant start then! :( just got to wait for another apointment to come thru!!!!
The party is now being held inside the Leisure centre hired a room for just £12 :O :D 1-3pm, i had to double check that she did only mean the £12 and not £12 for each hr! lol but yes it is only £12 so am increadably impressed with that! :) cuz i'm not after the bar being open, i'm not after any staff for party entertainment and i'm not after anything else! :) just the room! hehe!
That is a fantastic price hatz. Glad to hear the job is still yours, better late then never! How's your foot?
yeh thankfully the job is still in my hands! lol
my foot is slowly getting there! the swelling has gone of my toes now and i think my foot is slightly less swollen too! :) which is a VERY good thing in deed! my leg is still on the mend and as it's was really a double tear cuz did the same thing a couple months ago which still hadn't healed properly! it's goin to take a tad longer! ... keep strapping it up and see what happends over the weekend! :) i'm not limping around as much and it's not as painfull but when done too much walking i sure can feel it!!
well i'm goin to head off for the night now! got to spray the carpets before i go up due to the fact my son's been bitten all over!!!!!!! ... only prob with him playin on the floor!!!!!!! but there we go! lol he's got a nice bite anklet goin on at the moment and one on his hip and shoulder! least we'v got the cream to help him with the itching!!! and i know it's not my cat as i'v only just treated her with the stuff so that lasts up to 4 weeks! :) hehe! so it's there cat and they can get him sorted out them selfs! lol
right! nighty night night x chat soon x
Hope the party goes well, hatz, smart move to hire the leisure centre in view of the weather
Have a lovely time at the party!
... I think i can hear now!!!!!!!!!!!!! noise gallore this afternoon! lol and my son NOT wanting to join in with anything and just opened most his pressents so we don't actually know who some are from! lol but there we go! got him doin the music for musical bumps and statues and chairs and pass the parcel! so it wasn't too bad i guess! we had 10 tonn off food and still actually have loads of food left over! haha! ... but that's all my step dads food now as it's all ham sandwiches and sausage rolls and sausages left over! .... i don't know! i do loads of Ham sandwhiches for these children as they all like ham! ... but nope! cheese took the front line! lmao! managed to get a couple of them to have them and the parents too! lol only 4 of the parents took the plundge to leave there children! so i just felt like i was being watched all the time! but managed to get thru it all! brought the fave biscuits of the fussy lad that was there and he wouldn't even sit at the table untill that point!
well had a bit of a stress this morning! parents from some where got the time of the party at 11:30 till 1 I haven't a CLUE where they got that time from as right from the start it's been 1-3! and me mum even read the invite to check for spelling mistakes!!! she'd even asked me what time it was last night! ... i know a LOT has happend since then, but still getting the time a whole 1hr and 1/2 or more EARLIER is something quite amazing really! lol
Had the mum of one lad phone me up saying that there really sorry but he's now no longer able to come which meant his sister wasn't goin to come so made us 2 down which really you didn't notice at all! lol And Oh my word! these parents have got some money!!!! (either that or they'v taken pitty on my son cuz i'v prob told them some where down the line that i aint got that much money!!!) but he's now got 2 bakugans (don't ask me! lol he's been asking for them for ages i'v said no but he's got 2 as a pressy! lol) a lego dumper truck, matchbox car thing with a landrover! :D (big hit there with my son!) foot ball set! (LMAO after last weeks not wanting to join in with the foot ball party!) he's got a rocket shooter thing, a whistling ball couple of sticker books, £10, top trump cards and loads more! so were goin to have a HUGE sort out of his toys up stairs ... i did mention his train track as he hasn't played with that for about 3 months now and that didn't go down too well so looks like that's being kept a bit longer! hehe! but there we go! lol we did end up having a semi good time!!! had dinner bout 2:15 which finished at 2:45, let them have a quick game while i sorted the tables out and then sat them all down on the floor and did the cake part! which went down a treat with my son cuz it was Toy story cake and so he was extreamly happy! :) we then finished with a good ole' hokey cokey! and managed SOME HOW! to get all the parents in too!!!! so it was pretty good ... altho it only seemed to be me singing it! and by the end of that OMG! i was KNACKERED! haha so we gave out the party bags got my son to give them all out, i'd named them so knew i had enough of them as when your sorting them out at night you can lose track of numbers rather easily! haha!!!!!!
were now all settled for the night! monsteroo has gone to bed ... after helping his grandad mow 1/2 the lawn before it rained! lol and i'm not far off ready to goin bed my self! not actually realised how hard it was doin an actual party with no help from softplay or team leaders like previous ones were, could be! lol it got to the end and i was pretty much dead! .... and there was me thinkin i'll be taking the EASY route and sittin down a fair bit! lol didn't take the face paints in the end as i thought it was goin to be too much! and it sure would have been if i did take them!!!!!
well i'm goin to log off and settle down with the cuppa my mum just brought thru! :)
Hi Hatz, so pleased you had a great day, sounds like your son has some lovely friends xxx
I agree. Sounds brilliant!
Glad that it all went off well
All went well then hatz. Really pleased he had a good time. Some kids just don't like joining in, so I wouldn't worry about that. The main thing is, he thoroughly enjoyed it. xx
lol I was kinda dreading this morning incase any of the parents wernt too happy with the way the party went! (yes i get kinda nurvus in those sort of situations and then worry on the lines of ... what if!!) but the report back from most the parents that i saw today actually said it was good to see a "tradional" party (tradional as in not hiring some where or someone, but doing it ALL your self!) and the kids really enjoyed it! :) so it was all good! :) my son said to my yesterday, when can I have another party like that!!?? which i said not yet!!!!!!!!!!!! so i take that as he enjoyed himself! lol and yes my son is VERY much the type NOT to join in ... even at his own party! LMAO i wanted him to sit down in the circle so we could do his cake and sing to him but he wasn't having ANY of it! so i ended up telling him that it was cake time and then he promptly stopped his tantrum and sat on the floor with the biggest smile on his face!!!!!!! and when he saw his cake he was EXTREAMLY impressed! :)
well! :) yesterday (sunday!) parents went out for dinner and said they'll take us round to the garden centre and let my son choose some fish for his bowl, so i was counting on that to get him out and about, but when they came home!!!!!!!!!! they were rather drunk!!!!! so they went up to bed instead, so i decided i'll pop down the park and play with the park toys he got for his birthday and he did really well chucking these things across the park and running after them! :) tired him out at least!!! :D
Today did the usual going school and work etc! did the catalogs between dropping off and goin in for work managed to get 1/2 hr back at home just before having to be in work so i was able to get something to eat and drink then headed off to work! am i'm bell dutie this week and i hate it! lol all ready got 2 HUGE blisters on my hand and that's just from today :( but at least it makes the time go faster!!! :) and also had 2 reception girls helping me out! :) so they both got a green card to say thank you and were both VERY happy! :) went back out after work to pick up the other catalogs and cought up with me mum so i just finished off where she'd got round to and then headed back to school to do pick up! 2:30 at that point! so did have a few mins to my self while there waiting! lol Then went and chatted to the lovely dinner ladies that VERY kindly told me that i was sunburnt!!!!!!!! and from then on ... it HURTS!!!!!!!!!!! haha ... why is it when someone tells you your sunburmt it then hurts!?!?!?! looking in the mirror i'm burnt on my chest, side of neck, back of neck and very much so on my face! :O oops!!!!!! lol ah well it'll turn in to a lovely brown/tan colour with in the week! :) ... i love my skin! :D
Wow! What a busy day!
yup sure is on a monday! :) lol don't know where the 131 catalogs i'v just stuffed are goin to tomorrow but i need to go to town at some point! lol, need to check the bank and thats bout it really! lol but hopefully a little less busy tomorrow :)
oooo had a phone call rearanging the medical that should have happend on friday for this weds coming! she says 2nd time lucky! so fingers are crossed!!!
Good luck for the medical, hatx. It may be worth getting some gloves (cotton gloves?) to wear for bell duty
nah! lol one blister burst on me today while i was ringing the bell, suddenly found that the handle was a little bit wet and then i realised that my blister had burst! haha! so at least a little less presure on my little finger now! haha!!! just got the big on below my first finger to go now! haha!
on another note! lol i was logged on fb chat on my phone and not realised and i had a message come up from someone i know saying, you not talking to me??? so i told her that i was on my phone and that it don't tell me when i get messages come thru or anything like that, and that my battery was about to die on me! but if she gives me an hr i'll be online on my computer! any ways! i'm now sat here on fbchat and sent a message thru to her and she's not responding! :( but i'm not the sort to have a go at her about not talkin to me.. i just leave her to it! LMAO ... this aint the first time nor will it be the last!!!
today's been busy busy! spent the morning delivering catalogs then came home and got changed and went to work! then came home again and had some dinner and delivered the rest of the catalogs i didn't manage to do this morning and then ran out of catalogs! so i couldnt finish the last estate as thought it would be better to get a whole estate in rather than do 5 of the houses and not the rest! lol but these houses down on the estate i didn't do are MASSIVE! :O ok i was looking up at one house as i was at the bottom of the hill and it was 1/2 way up but it was still MASSIVE! :O
you get to see some very funny things when walking round! i had to laugh at one point as there was a lamp post with a forsale sign on it! haha!!!!! had to snatch a photo of it and share it! ... yes ok there was a sign under it saying what house it was selling but the very fact that it was attached to the lamp post and not in the tree just tickled me! haha!!! there's some houses which you take one look at and think NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! i came to a house and ok there was a brand new car out side on the drive way but the path to it was over grown, all the garden was over grown and also there was a pile of letters, new papers and god knows what else was piled 1/2 way up the door on the inside so i was looking at it and just said nope! i'm not leaving a catalog there!!!!!!!!!! but yes! some times you can just look at a house and know straight away that they wont have anything!!!!
well yup i'v HOPEFULLY got my medical in the morning! and should get back in time for work but have told the important people so they know and the rest will find out tomorrow! haha! and today i'v actually been bandage free for the first time in a week and by jove! it HURTS! :( so looks like the bandage is goin back on tomorrow, not quiet ready yet! but it will get there one day! lol and I can move it a bit more which is actually more than what i could do on friday!!!
well i'm goin to get goin for the night! got to find something to cool my shoulder down with as it's burning STILL! lol it seems worse on one side than the other! lol ... i don't know! skin that burns in the sun ... who ever invented it! LMAO :)
Good Evening all :) well the chap came and picked me up today for my medical :) he was actually there EARLY! I was walking my son down to school (the lolly pop lady at the top had said that he was waiting for me any ways, so was lookin out for someone on my way down!) so yes, i saw this car that i don't usely see in the line of cars and a chap sat in it with a bright yellow florecent jacket on and as he had the window opened i shouted across, you waiting to pick someone up? he said yes! so i said i'll be back in a few mins! haha!!! taking my son the rest of the way down the road! :) so i got back to the car and we set off!

Well some of our teachers from school will be involved in this strike next thrusday! thankfully not my son's class :D hehe! but we'v all had a letter/email to say which classes are in or not!
we've also managed to lose an order for the betterware! haven't a clue where it's gone too! but it was one on my round, so i'v got to see the lady tomorrow! thankfully she told me today else we'd of never known!!! but just goin to say that she told me she ordered but when putting them thru the systum last night her's didn't come up! gets me out a little situation! taking a book and form down to school with me and see if she can remember what it was she was after! lol
The little winge bag is in bed! he's messed about so much tonight! saying he wants something then not when he's got it! lol one of those moments in time where you litually want to throw him out the window!!!!!!!!! but we eventually got him in to bed and he's fast asleep now! lol no more mischeif making from him tonight!!!!!!!
well i'm goin to get goin! got to sort a few things out and see what's what in the morning! :)
good evening! how's things goin??? not been on for a couple of days, so i'd thought i'd catch up with you all!
we'v had a pretty good weekend here :) been busy doin all sorts of things, popped over to see friends on saturday and to get 2 birthday presents and let my son buy something with his special money (voucher!) which we managed to get him a few thigns with it. We had a wonder round coalville for a couple hrs and then came home! :)
Today we'v been sorting out the house (well most of it! lol) 1/2 sorted out the front room then i decided i'd had enough and said i'm goin to pop in to town for some ligitumate things and ended up spending £30 (£20 of which me step dad gave me! hehe!) but it's been SOOOOOOOOOOOOO hot today! been bout 30 out side it's 26 at the moment so a bit cooler now but still HOT!!!
Lil monster has been a big monster really this weekend he's learnt a new word and unfortuantly it's not a very good one :( and he's said it to me twice now! so i'v said if he says it again I will start to take things off him and i'll be starting with the thing he's in to at the moment which are bakugans (tbh i haven't a clue either!) but there we go! So i'v warned him and he's on his last chance and if this word come out of his mouth 1 by 1 things will be taken from him for the day or so! so hopefully he'll learn!
well i'm goin to head off again! just had to sort the monster out he woke up and wanted a drink so got him 1/2 glass of milk and he's gone straight back down!
Oh dear hatz, the naughty words, hehe. Haven't gone through that one! Your weekend sounds a busy one, despite the heat. It's sweltering isn't it? I've been painting at the weekend, but today I'm giving myself a rest. Too hot, paint fumes getting to me, which is giving me headaches, plus attacking chest.
Hi hatz
My suggestion is not to make too much of a big deal about swearing at this age. the best bet in my experience is to pretend to mis-hear it. My son learned to say "P*ss off" at the same age your son is now (at school?) and I just kept saying "No it's not pizza for tea it's fish fingers" (or whatever) He would shout it louder and louder and I would pretend he had said pizza and in the end he would give up. If they see they are shocking you, they can sometimes do it more.
Hope today has gone well
my son knows when he's gone too far! and after the warning he's not actually said it since! :) so i think i'v hit the nail on the head there! lol :) (tryin not to speak too soon of course!!)
lmao! paintfumes, i'd never forget the day after my dad OFFICIALLY left my mum went out and brought loads of pain and wall paper etc and then that night ... well the next morning when me and my bro came down stairs we found my mum had compleatly by her self re painted, arranged and lifted the carpet up in the front room! ... the only prob was that she'd also painted the radiator and the heating had come on part way thru (which she'd not realised!) and so when we'd come down found her 1/2 flaked out we had to take the paint brush out her hand put her into bed and get her a glass or 40 of water!!!, my brother was at work i was still at school and mum was meant to be at work that day too! so I ended up stayin off school too look after her, I also phoned her work and said she wernt feelin well and my brother went off to work! haha!!!! (looking back at it now, it's funny! but at the time we were EXTREAMLY worried!)
well today went really well! :) had the training this morning and everything went well with that! the chap showed me what to do and how best to do things then he stayed with me till the end of the shift! I was then on my own in the afternoon, of which at one point the chap that trained me this morning I ended up stopping and he said i'd did a good job! ... i'v had no end of people thanking me for taking it on and are really happy that someones FINELLY in place there! and even a couple of people peep at me on there way past!!!! so I can see it's been TRULEY missed and much needed back! ... some lovely person decided that they would park 2 inches from away I was crossing the children over! so I ended up moving further down than where i should have been! but it was a matter of safty which i have to think about firstly!
Rabbit got out the back of the cage today! parents managed to catch it this morning but this evening when it's got out again! obv's had more of a chance to look round and everything as she knows all the way round the garden, and down the tunnels that her mum dug out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ... which are under the shead!
well it's sure has been hot! 28-30 round here and has only JUST started to drop after 2 or 3 sprinklings of rain!!! were now at 25 so a tiny bit more bearable!
well i'm goin to head off! have another go at catching the rabbit and got to sort monster's lunch box out for tomorrow too! :) ttfn :)
Yes the weather has been hot!
Hatz I have noticed that when you feel you have had a difficulty with your son and post about it, if anyone (including Anna and myself) makes a suggestion of something that would help, you seem unwilling to give it a try, do you find it hard to have these suggestions? no-one is implying any criticism of you as a parent by making suggestions, we all share the benefit of our own experiences, and Anna and I have years of experience as Parenting Specialists so anything that is offered to you is offered as a help. One of the purposes of this board is to give that help and yet that seems to be something you feel uncomfortable about.
Don't forget that many other people read these boards and will benefit from the input that people have with suggestions and ideas as well!
Hi hatz. How is the new job going? Hope you and son are ok, had a lovely weekend, and enjoying the warm weather.
And soon be the hols!
Hope you're enjoying it.
Hope he has a lovely time!
