So this morning I was up at 6am and had my shower before I updated the last post. DP got up at 6.45am and went to the toilet then asked me what time it was before going back to bed! I was so pissed off by that. I started doing some dishes then put the kettle on to get myself breakfast. Shortly after that DD5 got up and I could hear DD2 stirring so when they were both up I got them breakfast. DP got up around 7.30am I think. The older 2 got up and got themselves ready to go to school, and I got DD5 ready. I took her and DD2 to school then came home. I'd put a load of washing on so DD2 and I went outside to hang it out, and the washing from yesterday that hadn't dried. Today is a much nicer day. I got a phone call from a friend that loves to talk so was on the phone to her for ages, I'd put more washing on so unloaded the machine and put another load on while we talked. I did some dishes and when I finally sat down DD2 sat with me and ended up going to sleep. She slept while DP was in the bathroom, from about 10.30-11.30am. She woke up and I gave her a snack and we went outside to hang out more washing. All this time DP was sitting on the computer, except for the hour or so he was in the bathroom. DD2 and I had some lunch, I asked DP if he wanted some but he said he has a massive headache. We've started a new diet for DD5 and DP is doing it as well. The rest of us are being a little lenient on it but we're mostly eating the same food. For DP the hard part is being off coffee, I've no doubt that's why he's having headaches, he's been quite addicted to coffee and softdrink and now he can't have either. I'm really hoping he'll stick to it but he's not good with following through. DD5 has to do it for 4 weeks, then we do challenges to see what foods we need to avoid for her. Anyway it's 2pm and DP has gone to bed. I pick DD5 up at 3pm and she's got sport today so there's my afternoon.
DP had told DS14 he would meet him in town today after school, I doubted it would happen. DS asked DP this morning if it was still happening and DP said yes. Before he went to bed he sent DS a text saying to come home, I knew he would do that. He seems to think they will go this afternoon after he's had a nap, but it won't happen. I wonder if he realises that DS will come to expect him to let him down just as I do now. He's so damn predictable. DS has been looking forward to this, I know it's going to be me that takes him into town. He wants to buy a scooter, he's saved up his money. DP was going to go with him but has been putting it off for ages. DS would have gone by himself but the shop isn't open on a weekend. I'd prefer someone else went, it's not really my area, but I can see that it will fall to me again, as usual.
Oh, before DP went to bed I commented to him about how sick I am with my life, me doing everything while he sits on the computer. That's all I said, then he rang and left a message on a driving instructor's machine about booking in for a lesson. Him having his licence would be nice, might take several lessons before that happens though.

Over everything
I am so over it all atm. The holidays went far too quickly and ended with a very busy Easter and me exhausted at the end of every day of the long weekend. It also ended with DP so sick I thought I would need to take him to the hospital. He said he would see a dr "first thing Monday" but of course it was an extra long weekend with ANZAC day. So the Wednesday he went and came home with antibiotics and another appointment for the following Monday. I went in with him on the Monday and his dr said his lungs were sounding worse so gave him stronger AB's. He had asthma and bronchitis so was taking pulmicort and ventolin for the asthma. I said over the week that he should have another appointment but he didn't make one until the AB's ran out and he had a couple of days without any. I went with him that time as well and said to his dr that I thought he should've come back sooner! He got cortisone tablets to take for a week and had to make another appointment. Of course all this time he was missing school and napping most afternoons and pissing me off completely! And the cortisone made him feel really sick so he slept heaps while he was on that.
It's Monday 30th of May, 6.10am. DP got up about half an hour ago to go to the toilet and is now snoring so loudly I can hear him up the hallway. I got up and showered, I need to keep this blog updated. Yesterday was like every other Sunday. I did 3 loads of washing, hung out 2 that didn't dry anyway so I had to bring them in and put them on the airer. I managed to clean most of the bathroom, didn't get the floor mopped or the toilet clean so I will try to do that today. We have started an elimination diet so I also made failsafe anzac biscuits and tea took a while to prepare. DS helped by cleaning up the living room and moving furniture for me so we can look at making him a space of his own instead of sharing with his little sister. DP sat on the computer ALL DAY!!! Except when he went to the bathroom and had a shower. He has been known to go 3 days without a shower, recently I talked to him about how he needs to shower EVERY DAY. And he should change his clothes, it's really horrible but he will wear the same clothes for a few days, and he has worn the same shirt for about 2 weeks, maybe more. We only knew because it had a hole in it, all of his t-shirts are black and either from Target or Lowes. It annoys me because he has so many that he won't wear because Target shirts shrink and he already buys the biggest available so once they are washed he never wears them again. I've suggested just buying online and getting a 10x, Target goes to a 7x. If he's not going to try to lose weight then he can just accommodate and buy BIG.
So back to him going to school. DD17 needed a new phone, her's has been turning itself off and after a scare where she was followed home we wanted her to have something reliable. I suggested she swap phones with DP since he doesn't use his except to text me, he's always home anyway. DP thought it was a great idea and started looking at iphones for himself. He actually told my mum that he missed having a phone because he liked knowing what the kids were doing, he was home those 2 days anyway, he is good at taking something and making it sound the way he wants it to. So he put his name down to get one because they sell out as soon as they come in. He actually told me he took his name off the list and would get a prepaid instead, he'd had DD17's phone for a bit and got sick of it turning itself off, but I'd thought that him being on her prepaid plan ($20 a month and 1c text to the same provider) would be enough for him. He only text messages me mainly. But no, Tuesday I was out shopping and he rings me (from the landline to my mobile) to tell me he's been called about a 32g iphone. They'd come in and his name was on the list to get one and he wanted to go and pick it up. I'm not going to go into the conversations we'd had the week before about the cost of the damn plan. He's all excited about getting a phone he can tether to a laptop and surf the net on while he is "out and about". Now he's talked about that before and never gone anywhere so I'm pretty sceptical. I can't see the point of spending $100 a month on one phone. I don't know why I do this, years ago he got an expensive phone plan, they're all in my name because the first time he couldn't one and at least I get the discounts etc. So I'd said ok, but as he claimed it was a 'business phone' I wanted him to make an honest effort at running his 'business'. I'd said if he didn't this was the last time I was doing this for him. DS14 has that phone now, it's quite old, and here I am doing the same stupid thing. I told DP we would be done around 1.30pm but said he was supposed to go to school. I had lunch with my mum and headed home to find DP waiting for me. It was about 2pm when we got to the shop and were told that there were about 7 people ahead of us so we left, I wasn't hanging around waiting when I had to get DD5 from school at 3pm. So DP says Wednesday he has school all day, Thursday I go shopping, Friday morning I am busy and so he won't be able to get this phone unless he goes in himself Wednesday. They're only holding it till Friday. So I've said mum is coming over Wednesday for coffee on her way home and she ends up helping me tidy up. DP's sitting on the computer and it ends up that he's wanting to go out and get the phone. Now he never said that to me, he just got ready to go and then had a mini tantrum about mum being there. How long are you going to clean up for, he wanted to know. I wanted to go in and get this phone. I accused him of having a sook and spoke to mum saying we were going out. Oh, Tuesday I dropped DP at school but he was home by the time I got back after visiting Nanna, about 5pm. He didn't go at all Wednesday, it's supposed to be a full day, and he was like a kid at Christmas with his damn phone. He tried showing me what it could do but I'm not interested. It's in my name, $105 a month, he can do everything he wants with it so we'll see if he goes anywhere this time. I was out Thursday, he sent me a text saying he was meeting a guy at the library to do some assessment. He was home when I got back at 1.30pm saying he'd caught a bus in, guy wasn't there so he came home. I've no proof, I don't think he went anywhere though. Friday he also sent a text saying he'd gone in and done an assessment task that was over in 20 minutes so he was home when I got back after playgroup and lunch with mum, that was about 1pm I think. I don't believe anything he says these days, great basis for a relationship.
Oh, he was supposed to go to school on the 19th. I came back from shopping to him home, he said he'd rung Tafe and he didn't need to go in until Monday. So he rang Monday and tells me that whoever he spoke to Thursday had looked at the group 1 timetable and he was in group 2. So the Tuesday he rang me he was supposed to go to school, it would have been his first since term started back on the 27th of April! I'm still not convinced he's been yet, even though I took him that afternoon I don't think he actually attended class. But who knows, I'm just waiting to see if he actually passes this course. I'll be so pissed off if he fails, I want to kick him out but I don't know if I will be able to.
