January 6 and 7 - bubbles in the potty :)

January 8th, 2006 at 03:58 am

ok, so now I am blowing bubbles into the toilet for ds1 to hit...I plan to try the food coloring too - great idea! He does great with a little motivation, but without any prompting from us, he would stay in a wet diaper all day Frown
Today we took the boys to return a few things at the mall, out to lunch with DH's parents, who met us in Syracuse, and then stopped at a local restaurant to pick up a g.c. for my parents for dinner and a movie. That turned out to be my biggest mistake of the day. After I got home from playing cards tonight, I logged onto my BOA account so that I could finish tallying up last year's totals. Well, the first thing I saw was a pending authorization on my debit card for $42.49 from Zebbs, a Syracuse restaurant that we have not been to in years. But, still, I thought maybe they owned the restaurant we stopped at, so I got out my receipt to check the amount. It was different. So I called BOA (had to try three different numbers to get one that was open at 10:30pm), then got transferred FOUR times to find someone to help me. They cancelled my debit card and put a fraud alert on it. Then I called the restaurant to find out what I could about the transaction. The first thing they said was, "were you at a Kirbys?", which is where I was earlier. So I told them I was, but that 42.49 was not the amount of my purchase. Turns out they automatically add 20% when they are authorizing a purchase, which is not counted when the actual transaction goes through. I felt relieved, annoyed, and stupid. I had to call BOA back to undo the fraud alert, though it was too late to un-cancel my card. DUH. I am now kicking myself for not calling the restaurant first, but I was paranoid that someone was out there making purchases with my card.
I need to go to bed...
January expenses: $328.78 + 16.21 (golf balls, t-shirt at Dicks) + 36.95 (Kirby's) + 12.18 (med.for dad) + 27 (gas) = 421.12
January income: $898.41 + $7 (credit from return) = 905.41

    congrats on a willing kid, I have a friend whose kid is only trained when naked, and my DD used to be the same way, don't worry about it, he was trained to pee in a diaper for how long?
    (however old he is) and no you changed the rules on him, he will get it. You could try underware, most kids don't like wet underware but don't mind the wet diaper. (but no guarantees, didn't work on DD for awhile, but honest she is now fully trained, cept the occassional night)
