Thanks for all of your advice on the Jojo situation. I gained some perspective the next day when I got some time apart from Jojo. The day of the multiple incidents was a long one of being “alone together”…ie, not having my husband (or other adult) around to share the parenting load.
My parents (whom we currently live with) went out of town this weekend, and on Saturday when Nick was working, Jojo looked around and said, “Hey, where are all the peoples?”
Saturday wasn’t too stressful, as Deaky napped for a good part of the morning which gave me one on one time with Jojo. Deaky is so accommodating.
Jojo is still having multiple time-outs each day. I have a problem of no good place to put him in time-out. When I was growing up we had a very boring corner in our house I had to stand in…white painted bricks and no decorations. We don’t have a corner right now that is devoid of stimulus. Right now he sits under the oven, just because I use the oven timer so he can hear the beep when 3 minutes is over.
I got tagged by JojoEbi to do this Meme. This is my first every meme on this blog. Hooray!
Four jobs I have had in my life:
cashier at a fast food restaurant, sandwich artist, barista, ESL teacher ( could do more but you only get 4 this time…)
Four places I have lived
Belize, China, Laos, Alabama
Four Places I have been on Vacation
Cambodia, Singapore, Jamaica, Thailand
Four of My Favourite Foods:,
baked brie, wood fired pizza, iced coffee (it’s a food), edamame
Four Places I Would Rather Be Right Now:
At a coffee shop in Laos, face down on a massage table, on a real date with my husband, or on the Eastern Orient Express
I suppose I will tag the only four people who read my blog.
Jenny, Megan
Jenn and…aw man. I think I runned out of fans.

I’m glad Jojo’s doing better. Phases, girl, phases. Nothing ever seems to lat forever.

Maybe today, probably tomorrow!

I still read your blog too! Just not as often because I am not very good about checking blogs that are offsite, and I have yet to make an RSS work in such a way that it SAVES me time and doesn’t cause headaches.
Hope all is well.
