It seems thathe twins have suddenly remembered that they're supposed to be making my life hell!!!!
They were great for a few days but now they are playing up at feed times, crying for no apparent reason (for crying, read screaming) and generally making life hard. I wonder if they're just picking up on the fact that I'm down regarding the problems I'm having with my family. It seems too much of a coincidence that they were behaving and then just as my family problems began, they started to play up again.
I will try and remember that and not be too hard on them. Have to confess though that I lost my temper yesterday. Ended up screaming right back at them. Sometimes it's the only way!
Regarding my family, I wrote out a repy to my Mam's letter today. It's a long and drawn out affair, but in a nutshell, it says that we can't move on unless we try to resolve our problems. And seeing as though she will do anything to avoid discussing what has happened, I don't really expect a reply in the near future.
And what of my Dad? Well, I'm still looking for him.
The five day diet started in earnest yesterday as I opened up the treadmill for the first time in six months. Last year I used to run for an hour every other day. That all stopped when the twins came along, of course, as I had neither the time nor the inclination. But I will try to get back into the swing of things. I ran for thirty minutes yesterday and quite enjoyed myself and so I'm going to try for another half hour tomorrow. Wish me luck!
Bye bye.
