A Potty We Will Go . . .
How things can change in a week is amazing. My little boy had no interest at all in the potty. None, whatsoever. What we had learned with Madison was not to push it, and they are ready when they are ready. We’ve had the potty chair pulled down since he was 18 months. No interest at all. However, yesterday, he wanted to sit on the potty. 3 times! Now, granted, I don’t think he actually went (but he was definitely trying!). I even ran the water hoping to help him go, but it didn’t work. With Madison, we had to bribe her to even sit on the toilet, so we are keeping our fingers crossed for Will here.

Thinking happy happy thoughts
NOT! I swear when it rains it pours. I awoke to a huge puddle of water in front of my house this morning. Now, the temp is -8 with a windchill of -20, so I definitely should not have had standing water. I called Bill freaked out and he had me call the village. I think it is a water main break. However, nobody bothered to come to my door. Instead, they just turned off my water. I just realized it when I tried to make Will his diluted version of juice. Needless to say, I am ticked. I called the village, and they won’t give me an ETA at all. I seriously would love to know if I need to send Bill out for water or what. I seriously am trying not to be highly irritated right now. I could be working on things like Increasing Blog Article Quality or doing some of my freelance work. Instead, I am standing in my front window watching my village dig a huge hole in my street and trying to figure out what to make for dinner with no water. Also, try explaining to a 5 year old why she can’t flush the toilet after we have spent 2 years drilling it into her head that she needs to flush the toilet.
I know there are way bigger things in life I should be concerned about, but man this is irritating.
