WTF do you do?
Today it was just me and ds as dh was away hunting.
Up at 6, breakfast etc then drove to the lake for morning tea and a run around. Was scorching hot here so packed up to get ds out of sun about 11 and was home by 1/2 past. We needed to stay out of sun for awhile as have no shade so I got out puzzles, lasted 10mins, got out magnets and board, lasted 5mins, got out a make and bake window hanger thing, lasted 10minutes, made lunch together 15 mins, read stories, lasted 10mins, let him jump on a mattress on floor, 10mins, played trains 10mins ad infinium, I think I went through almost everything in the things to do when there is nothing to do box, in between he was a holy terror, throwing things, being destructive or pulling at me, climbing on me etc. He had a big sleep in car on way home so wasn't tired, ate heaps during day so wasnt hungry...but the day just loomed in front of me and I must admit it took everything I have to stay calm and kind with him today sooooo...what the f do you do on days like this...I am beat! (It is 7.20pm here and have put him to bed 10min early as couldn't hang out any longer!!!
