Gratitude

The daughter person is getting a bit of a hard time at the moment. She is irritating R in particular by not thinking of anyone else but herself. So she wants to put on washes Csisting of only her shirt and not put in the obvious family wash. Then she forgets to put the shirt in the dryer - when R does it she says sorry to ME. I pointed out that thank you to him was more appropriate! Then when we go out to the garage where the dryer is, all she has done is pull out her shirt and not even turn the dryer back on... or put in the other half of the wet wash. I know it is because she is the age she is, but the total self focus gets tiring. When she makes a drink at night, she never asks if anyone else would like one. Its getting to the point where I really need a break!

On the much happier news front, we are now newly auntified, as a neice was born last night at about five thirty. Both are happy and healthy, which is great as the elder sister to this girl was born two and a half month early and was much more of a Ccern.

I'm off to the museum with the elder son this afternoon, and I am embarrassed to Cfess this is the first time I have been to the local museum, which is apparently a pretty good one Csidering the amount of money they get from the council to run the thing.
