Wed half way there

Half way through the week only two days to friday and a whole weekend off! And am I looking forward to it,wellll,I was but apparently I am now going wedding dress shopping,well not shopping as she finally managed to take herself off to the shop I have been telling her about for months and found the dress she wanted.We are going to pay some more money off it nd I have to go so she can show me it. Trouble is it is going to be living at my house for the next twelve months I am going to see more than enough of it. Why did I agree to be wedding planner for this wedding? What little imp took over my body and said they would not only plan the wedding but would do the catering? And it looks like I have to be peace keeper too,as the family arguments have started already and they aren`t getting married untill July 2007!! Sulks over people not being asked to be bridesmaids,the best man has changed three times? I have decided I am going on holiday the week before the wedding,for a month!!
Well tonight I have done a CV for a freind complete with an application letter and emailed it for her. Been made to go blushy by a very good freind of mine,little sod! Been chatted up by a 16 year old..girl must be the Impulse :))
She was fine though when I told her that sweet as it was she wasn`t my type,when she asked what type I went for I said the Male kind;) She laughed about it and apologised,but wanted to chat to me anyway,so once she got over the trying to chat me up bit she is really a sweet kid. I really must change my perfume or something:))

Hmmm!

It is going to be a strange day today,my system thinks that it is its day off and is rebelling against being in work mode. As they didn`t change my working week untill last thing monday I was Psyched up for working tuesday and having today off. So of course I didn`t sleep last night,as is normal on a tuesday night. I am however looking forward to having two days off together and not having to go into work on Sunday and spending all day worrying about what the Junior Cyclone has done to my apartment. He has been upgraded from The Destructor you notice. Anyway I have worked out what his problem is and we have now set about sorting that out. For those that haven`t had the pleasure to meet the Junior Cyclone yet in my ramblings he is my sons fiances little boy. The reason he was upgraded is down to the damge he inflicted on my apartment two sundays running and bank holiday monday. The latter one was by far the worse and led to me sitting them both down and telling them that I was not going to put up with it. I could not spend my day at work worrying about what he was doing and I had no intention of doing so. Some of it,like the taking every yoghurt drink out of the fridge and pouring it all over the living room,well that could be dealt with they would clean it ( Except not to my standards apparently) and replace anything that he had taken/damaged. However the ripping up of six pages of notes and mesing about with my computer is damage I wont tolerate. I now have to redo those notes because of exams and if he damages the computer it is not just the cost of replacing/fixing but the stuff that I have on there that could be lost. She has been at her wits end poor lass,trying to work out why he is doing all this. So we sat and talked about it and I made her keep a diary for a week or so and now have got to the bottom of the problem and put in place the counter actions. It appears that his destruction is his way of punishing his mam and my son and when he does it at mine all of us. This is probably due to the fact that he is now being made to do as he is told and he doesn`t get everything he wants or allowed to just go and take what he wants. The discovery that he never trashes his own room,and then she told me he is made to clean his room. So it wasn`t hard to work out that he doen`t trash his own room because he has to clean the mess. Up to that point she had cleaned all the mess after he had trashed the other rooms. Not anymore. Now whenever he does anything she makes him clean it. It has been hard for her because it is so tempting,isn`t it to move him out of the way and just do it because it takes so long. But she has stuck to it and the episodes are getting less and less. He is a very intelligent child and has the ability to work tthings out in minutes. He plays her up in town because it embarressess her,and now she has resorted to taking him home and putting him in his room with no treats instead of finishing the shopping and that has started to calm down too. He doesn`t do that one with me or with Mike if we take him in town because he knows it wont work.
And the rest of the time he is a lovely child. I have been teaching him to read and say his Alphabet and he can recognise simple words written down already.
And the weather cannot make up its mind today sun and rain together. Makes it hard to decide what to wear. Decisions decisions;)
