Monday Monday

Princess Lollipop excelled herself with nighttime antics last night! She woke up around 2am (total guesstimate as I can't actually see the alarm clock without my glasses lol) shouting, loudly and repeatedly "I want a bucket"!!! She fell back asleep for a while and then woke up and shouted "I want..I need" and then fell asleep again!! The third wake up she shouted for me a few times and fell asleep as soon as she was holding my arm. I tossed and turned for ages after all this and was tired out this morning and neither of us woke up till about 10.30am! We then had a quiet morning while I got on with some jobs around the place, then after lunch we drove to pick up some chairs I'd won on E*bay. I had my fingers crossed that I would fit them all in the car, along with me and Princess Lollipop in her carseat.

Before we set off to get the chairs, we took the old broken office chair out of my Craft Room and threw it away at the tip. The GPS got us to the right road, but then abandoned us with no idea where the actual house was!! So I had to drive up and down peering down driveways trying to see the house numbers! After driving up and down the road a few times, I finally found the right house! The five chairs (four for OUR shop) and one for my new craft room all fitted in the car, so we drove straight round to OUR shop to drop the chairs there. Princess Lollipop decided to stay there with her Daddy, so I returned home and had just enough time to get my new chair up to my Craft Room before having to go and collect Little Prince from school.

Little Prince was "odd" when I picked him up from school. He seemed spaced out and answered questions about what he'd done at school, just with very quiet "hmms." He stayed like this for about an hour at home too. I'm really not sure what is going on and will have to check with school and make sure they are giving him the correct dose of medication!!

Princess Lollipop was very tired and grumpy when she and Mr Messy returned home from OUR shop. She was very possessive and screamed, shouted and hit Little Prince if he tried to sit next to me! She refused point blank to eat her tea! And wailed and shouted at anything and everything! It was quite a relief when she finally fell asleep!! Little Prince was very pleased that, for once, he got to go to sleep later than his baby sister :-)
