Ok so I wrote a post yesterday spent ages on it and posted it. This morning I come one to find out what todays post was to be about and realised I posted it to the wrong blog. So I didnt break the challenge just blogged elsewhere so I will copy what I did yesterday below and then do todays post separate.
So for todays post I have to put my 10 likes and dislikes. So here goes.
Likes:
1. Watsits and cheese spread sandwich. This is my favourite snack.
2. Walking in the rain. As long as I dont have to be anywhere and ait in wet clothes I love walking in the rain.
3. Shopping. A bit of an obvious one being a woman but I cant help it. I get that happy feeling from buying nice things.
4. Cuddles. I am a sucker for a good cuddle preferably from a guy with big arms but cuddles from my little munchkin is always good too.
5. Therapy. I love my therapy. One on one or CBT I love it. I dont know how I will feel when its over.
6. Fresh sheets. No need for an explanation.
7. The feeling you get when you take your bra off after a long day. Sorry but sometimes us ladies just have to hang.
8. Reading. A life without reading would be very boring.
9. Movies. Same as books really life would be boring without them.
10. Flowers. Now I have never been given flowers without there being an apology attached.
Dislikes:
1. Stereotyping. I am a single mom with no job so thats all people will see.
2. Mushrooms. They look vile, they smell vile and they squeak. Enough said.
3. Smelly people. There is just no need.
4. Coffee.
5. PCOS. It affects so much of my body its unreal.
6. Racism. There is just no need.
7. Being a failure. I try hard to change my life around but dont seem to be getting anywhere.
8. Self checkouts. Yes they are convenient but there is always an unidentified item in the bagging area. With a small child in tow it is normally them.
9. Old people. Not all old people but it seems the majority of old people you meet these days are ignorant, moany, ungrateful and down right rude. I am tge type to hold doors open and you get more thanks from younger people than old ones. Its like they feel they dont have to thank you because they have earned the right to be treated like royalty.
10. Competitive parents. I do all I can for Charlotte and if that means making her party spectacular for her then thats how it will be but then the other parents try to make theirs one better but their kids are just not interested.
I am fortunate to have a very advanced 2 year old in both physical and mental development. This is a gift which I love to show off on social media. I like to show that being a single mom I dont fit into the typical stereotype. I give my child everything she needs to work at her pace and it has benefit us. Other parents has seen this as bragging and try to get their kids to do the same and when they cant its somehow my fault because I have given them an unrealistic view of a 2 year old. I measured Charlotte recently as I was in class and we were doing some true or false questions. The one was the hight of a child at 2 years old is approximately half of their total height as an adult. This was true. I said that would mean Charlotte will reach around 6 foot 4 as she is now 3 foot 2 and I could see a number of people look like I was lying so I took a picture of her next to the tape measure and people were shocked. I get asked all the time how old she is and they dont believe me when I say she is 2. She went for her 2 year development check and averaged 4 years in most things. I sometime forget that she is still just 2 and expect a lot of her but then I look at all the other 2 year olds in our family/friends (there are 5 born within 6 months with Charlotte being the eldest but the only one born premature) and I see just how mature she really is.
