Manic Monday: Nuts!
Image and meme from Manic Monday
Aw nuts! Just when I thought I was safe, he was up again! This time he got up twice! That’s what I get for rejoicing that I would have several days of not having to get up for work at 4:45 am. That’s what I get for speaking too soon.
Aw nuts! Just when I thought I might be able to let him eat cheese, he has a totally unfocused, hyperactive weekend filled with running off and all manner of chaotic behavior. Was it the cheese or the weather or the moon conjunct Mercury in the 11th house? Who knows? But cheese is back on the banned list.
Aw nuts! Just when I can put him in soccer he decides he wants to play football. And really, is there any nice way to tell him that if he thinks I’m letting him play football, he’s nuts? And double nuts, now his sister suddenly seems to think she doesn’t want to play soccer either.
Aw nuts! I thought I could get out of making our costumes for the Halloween/birthday party this weekend, but I’ve been talked back into it. Let’s hope Pikachu’s tail survives and that Ash’s Pokeball doesn’t get lost. I think I’ll wear a hat instead of the pink Team Rocket wig. And that means getting all my deadlines met early so I actually have time to do this. No pressure.
Four aw nuts! moments and it’s only Monday morning. Have you have any aw nuts! moments today?
Regarding your expisode wherein Gus regularly visits your room to lie down nightly on the extra cot you provide in your room, my suggestion is that you set up the cot in his room and lie down with him at appropriate times…to see what his reaction might be. Or, if you leave his room door open slightly at night and provide some of his favorite listening music when he retires - to see what his reaction might be…Or have him to go to bed with more light than a night light provides..there again to see what his reaction or the results might be.
