Flying solo

Well, the sprog and I have managed about 30 hours together without injury, although it has been a close call at times. Most notably when he grabbed my favourite DVD, broke the cover across his knee and threw it across the room laughing. Potty training is difficult. I'm not sure whether I just need to have faith that it'll come together, or that he's too young to bother trying with right now. And my MIL phoned basically to tell me how this week should be easy because I only have one, not two like she had. So that took the wind out of my "managed a normal day with a two year old and a foul stomach bug" sails.

Did Judder on Friday night, which has been one of my goals for years. It was ace - mostly hogged the dance floor upstairs jiggling to the guest DJ with some wicked drum'n'bass. Got me into the mood for global gathering, and I'm pretty sure I'll be going again. Hopefully with ninneviane：）

I'm pretty much considering taking the web job I was re-offered, providing they bow to my childcare needs. Otherwise they can go piss up a rope and I'll carry on with the plan A. I've been guessing and second guessing what I want with it so I'll just tel the what I need and see what happens. Worst case scenario is putting the sprog into a creche one morning a week, and the conclusion I came to was that in all honesty it would be worse for me than for him.

Aww thanks - perspective is a good perspective to have on the whole thing. It's been a day of near misses, and it's worn me down a bit. But I'm resolved to just keep it light-hearted and eventually he'll get the hang of it I'm sure :)

I think B will like creche．I've always strived to makehim independent and so far it seems to have worked. But then I swore I wouldn't daycare him until he was three, and now I'm guessing and second guessing my motives. I think I just need to accept that he'll love it, and it's me that is worried and emotional about the whole thing :)
