Happy Birthday Dad

Today we went to music club and iced biscuits...nice messy fun.....Wayne made one for everyone tonight as its Grandads birthday.....

Home to have lunch then due to horrible wind and rain spent the afternoon just playing, singing nursery rhymes and dancing...well I was ...the kids were just amused lol

School then back to play again...

Wayne's sniffing has turned to bad coughing and he was dreadful by tonight....plus he woke up at 7am.....I didn't want him to go for a meal tonight, even though it's Grandads birthday, but he wanted to.....we had a lovely meal and Wayne was ok, but it started badly with Great Grandma cornering him and hounding him....omg I know she won't change at 92 but just once it would be nice if she could not criticise!! What did she say to him??

'you know why you've got a cold, going out with nothing on your feet'

'have you got a vest on under there?'

'when are you going to cut your hair?'

didn't hear a school one tonight.....but she's going to find out soon, and her niece from Americas here in September...so even worse......

Wayne ended nearly in tears and we got him relocated to a safer seat .....it's horrible really as it brings back everything she used to say to me...constant criticism...never happy with anything...and worse now as she's older and she wonders why I don't go there regular, I'm not putting Wayne through what I put up with, she comes here once a week and I have tears after and have to reassure Wayne as it is..........awful thing to say but true...

Anyway he fell asleep on the way back and he's now in bed, he woke up when we got back and went to sleep asking me why Great Grandma was nasty to him.....I just explained that she's old and doesn't think or mean it....bless him x and he said 'but she does bring me my favourite food, chocolate'....sigh.......

I took a cake for Dad...you know...being 65 he really wanted to blow out candles...lol....no for Waynes benefit....even that was disaterous....Great Gran was mumbling about having a cake at home we could nip back for.....yeh with Wayne ill an extra half hour there....and more travelling would be great...it was 8ish by the time we got in as it was.....the idea of meeting central was so we wouldn't be back too late and to save Dad some travelling

Oh I'm going on now.....

Anyway I think Dad liked his present, got him slippers from Wayne....as requested...boring...lol.....and a framed personalised newspaper headline with best Dad of the year 2008, his pic and a write up about how he is the best dad....from this website haven't told Shel yet, she'll be rofl...she thought the Alpaca bear was mad!!

Talking of Shel, sent her a text last night after receiving one from her in reference to the pilates saying I was turning into a hippy veggie (what's wrong with that??) so sent one back saying they wouldn't let hippies become members of tre ysgawen hall....she never got the message!!!! but I read it out to Ron last night and he nearly fell over...lol....seems to like the idea of the free pass though...lol....just finding the time to go.....but I shall be going soon....I feel so stressed tonight!!!
