5 minute escape

I don't know about you but i never seem to get 5 minutes to myself any more. Jack is a big attention seeker, then there's the housework, my job, birthday parties, insurance shopping...it goes on...and on...and on.

Jack has been a good boy tonight and used his potty, his reward?...stealing my bath! I can't wait until he's potty trained properly..less nappies so more money for something else he'll need. He is learning lots of new words, this week i have taught him one, two, three & a, b & c. After christmas when we know what is happening with nic's job we are going to find a child minder so he can have more interaction with other kids to help him develop more, he amazes me how much he can do already. If you had told me that before he was 2 he would be using so many words & be so independant I would have laughted at you and called those nice young men in their white coats, I really had no idea how quickly kids develop. He has also started using a cup this week without a lid on, he spills a little down hiself but not much as he is quite careful, he just seems eager to drink it in case we take it away from him which i guess is because he is used to having the odd drink from our cups then having it quickly whisked away again.

Work is quite pants, I am so bored and feel that i need something to challenge me but then I think about all the people that are losing their jobs and I realise how lucky i am. I got dressed up again last week for halloween but I only have pics from work with the rest of my team so cannot post any here as they may not wish to have their pictures displayed for all to see.

Those of you who know me will maybe have been wondering about my state of mind following the final F1 race of the season, well I can tell you I was absolutely devastated, it took about 2 hours for me to come to terms with what happened. Lewis Hamilton is a fantastic driver and thoroughly deserves to be the champion but I still wish it had gone to Felipe Massa in the Ferrari. On the last laps I was screaming at the tv hoping & praying that lewis would cross the line in 6th place so Massa could win then when Glock slowed because of the rain fallling heavier I was crushed, we had the championship for 38 seconds........oh well, only another 134 days until the new season starts.
