Potty training, home builders, and stupid washing machines!

I don't know if it is because it is finally Friday or because I know we have a really long weekend of painting the inside of the house starting tomorrow, but every little thing has mad me mad today.

First, we have been trying to potty train H for at least a year and today while washing the dishes a caught a faint whiff of the odor that only means one thing. After checking both girls I realized that it could have only come from the boy. Ahhhhhhh! I don't know what else to do we have tried rewards, punishment, showing him his new undies, everything and nothing is working. I just don't know what to do anymore - I give up - I guess when his sissies make fun of him for going in his pull ups then maybe it will sink in!

Second, this little rent house (cracker box) we live in has a washing machine that must be from 1978. Don't get me wrong I'm am thankful that we have a washer and dryer here and I don't have to drive with the kids to do my laundry but look closely at the controls and you will find only two options for water levels - small and extra large - what happened to medium and large? Ahhhhhhh!




Third, as you may or may not know we are building a new house out in the country. Our builder has known for two weeks that we are going to paint the inside of the house this weekend. I told him on multiple occasions that I wanted him to deliver the trim and doors out there by today so we could paint it while we had everything out there and being used. I talked to him Tuesday and he said he would have it delivered Saturday morning - Great! He called today and said that they (the builder and his assistant) decided that they are just going to install the trim next week and we will just have to paint it in place. Ahhhhhhh!


Thanks, for letting me vent!
Love,
Me
