Hey there to myself and my one follower little Lisa in Dubai! So its Sunday night and and the 1st of March 2009 and my hasn't time flown! So Tahlia has been at school for over a month now and she is actually liking it! The first few weeks were a bit dodgy and she was asking me every day whether it was the weekend yet and I was starting to stress but after about 2 weeks she settled in and met some lovely friends and now we seem to be into the swing of things. The problem is that I'm hating the drop off and pick up and this seems to be the bane of everyones lives! Just the parking and the heat and the endless routine can send you a bit looney. It will be good when she is in about grade 3 or 4 and I can just drive by and shove her out the door!! ha ha great mum I am hey. The other problem I'm experiencing is the absolute terrible behaviour which seems to be occuring lately. I'm not sure why this is happening but I think it might be some sort of rebellion against the strict routine of school. I'm hoping that it settles down in a few weeks cos I don't think I have ever hated being a mum so much as I have in the past few weeks. I hate that I'm constantly screaming at her and saying no and just not enjoying any time with her at all. To make matters worse my one on one time with Flyn is so enjoyable because he is just such a joy that it escalates the annoyance of Tahlia when she gets home. I have incredible guilt about it but just don't know how to stop it....any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!
So changing the subject we have the house on the market and are really hoping it sells for a price we want. Its only been just over a week but the open for inspection weekends really take their toll. Just having to do so much cleaning completely does your head in and this is another stress which is probably making the kids annoyed and a bit crazy. We have a few interested parties but nothing solid yet, fingers crossed something comes off before I really go crazy!
So thats it for now, until next time
