Heh Megan! I kept meaning to reply to your reply at the end of the last thread, but the thread was changed and I completely forgot to go back and read it so I could answer it!! Heh, I was really glad to hear your post. It's always so nice to hear I'm not the only one finding parenting difficult at times! How's the flood water going - has it all gone down now? The flooding in town, was that due to a flash flood, not the actual river levels? I saw the river only got to 7 point something metres and there was flooding whereas last time it was close to nine and didn't flood. I pulled out an old newspaper I have from the 91 floods and saw that it was just over 9 metres then. That last one a month or so ago was SO close to those levels - must've been a bit scary for a lot of people. There's nothing worse than having to clean up a heap of mud and goop after floodwaters have been through your house. I'm lucky that it's never happened to me. Only because my Dad is completely paranoid and has always made sure he (and I) have a flood level search done before buying a house. Have to say it's been good advice. One less thing to worry about iykwim.
Nic - still studying, keeping up with the full time levels although I've dropped it back a bit while I do some other work. I was doing it almost twice the full time speed, now I'm back to just filling my full time amount (one subject per month). Yeah, I can't wait for Scouts. I wouldn't mind getting involved and helping out too. I just love camping and outdoor activities, so I think it'd be heaps of fun for us all.
Heh Donn - congrat's on your weight loss!! Pretty cool stuff, you're doing SO well. Sounds like you're doing well with the tupperware too. I hope Campbell picks up the poor mite - gastro for a month??? Yuk. We've just cut Matt out of gluten (we're all coeliac) and we've discovered he is too. He had his first solid poo EVER last week, a week after cutting the gluten out. Toilet training was just never going to happen while he had chronic diarrhoea. I knew I had to cut it out when I gave him a bowl of sultana bran and he had really bad watery diarrhoea after it (before that the only gluten he ate was the odd thing and oat muesli bars, no actual wheat). After it cleared up I gave him another bowl and he had watery diarrhoea again, so I figure it was time to cut it out for good. Oh well, at least it's the whole family...
Anyway, better go and see what Matt's doing. Sounds like he's playing with the cat's food.
