Well the weekend was rubbish... totally rubbish!
My father in law called my husband on Saturday because he was in major pain and couldn't pee so I rushed over and took him to A&E - I thought he could have a bad water infection or kidney stones because of his symptoms so I wasn't hanging about. Much of Saturday was taken up waiting for him to be seen in A&E. Eventually he was seen by the triage nurse who told him to stay to see a doctor. After 3 hours of waiting, he eventually told me to go home and he'd call when he was ready to come home... I wasn't home 2 minutes and he called to say he was being admitted with an inflammed prostrate! Great, just what we needed! So off back to the hospital I went to sit with him and keep him company until he was found a bed on a ward. Another 3 hours later, now plus a rather tired and irratable Stepson, FIL was still not on a ward!
Sunday wasn't much better although it was a lot more productive than sitting in a hospital waiting room or in the CDU. My father has recently moved out (like saturday, while I was at the hospital with FIL!) and I'd decided that I'd get my stepson's bedroom sorted out properly for the first time since we moved in 8 months ago... (my Dad was never supposed to stay as long as he had so most weekends we had Harry in his room and my Dad sleeping on the couch - not ideal!!). We fetched all of Harry's toys from my MIL's house which have accumulated there over the years, chucked the broken ones, bagged up the unwanted baby toys for charity and sorted out the rest so that they could come home with us. Once they were home at ours, I couldn't believe how many toys this child actually has... and do you know what, he actually doesn't play with any other than his matchbox cars! For a child that spends 2 nights a week at our house, he has enough toys to share amoungst the entire neighbourhood! So he's been told, now that we have them all over at our house, he either plays with them or they go to the charity shop for children who don't have many toys! I point blank refuse to have toys in our house that he doesn't play with... there are other children out there who would benefit more from them than for them to be sitting in a cupboard gathering dust! I worked on that room for 5 hours solid and I think I've finally cracked it! We just have to buy a new set of blinds, some WWE curtains and a duvet cover and I've said we'll get some WWE posters which I plan on framing in bright frames for the walls! Then I think I'll finally stop!
