Few thoughts from tonight.
Sarah saying they’ll have to move the tv. Well, that’s the risk you take when you move into a house and your first priority is hanging a tv in every room before sorting out where the furniture will go, putting up blinds or building wardrobes.
Creepy’s mysterious pain sounds like gas to me. The bad kind you get when your diet is all fizzy drinks and potatoes. Get a bit of fibre, Creeps, it’ll do wonders.
Sarah just can’t accept she messed up with those pictures for Isabelle. Tattle’s been talking about it for weeks. You’d think Hi Steve would have let her know she was wrong in the first place.
Chris had two tiny jobs to do all day and it’s dark outside by the time he and Isla do them. How lazy can you get? (As lazy as your wife, I guess)
Isabelle apparently read 200 pages in an hour and a half. Not a chance that happened.
Esme read a book she got for Christmas for 45 minutes between 9 and 10. But Sarah said it was back to school that morning so which was it?
Sarah wants the playroom to be a place the older kids want to be in too so is choosing the paint the walls in a way that is much more suited to younger kids. Makes sense.
But on the subject of the older ones and the playroom. It’s not hard to figure out why they would rather play in their own rooms. If they’re in the playroom with Jace, it’ll be ‘play with me’ ‘watch me’ ‘look at this’ from Jace and while the older two are so good with him, it’s understandable that when they want to play Xbox or read or whatever, they want to just do that and get a break from being unpaid babysitters. Sarah just wants them in with Jace so she doesn’t have to look after that.
And probably so she can keep pretending she’s only got young children.
