Nanny diaries, part 2

THE FATHER HAS BEEN HOME FOR 3 WEEKS.
(yes, you know capital letters mean annoyance, anger and frustration!)

I wish i could set a camera inside the house so that everyone could see the stupidity of this man. i can't stand him and today he said something to me and i would have said: GFY! I was telling him that Ryan is not a morning person... neither am i. We all know that. but he said to me: and we know who else is not a morning person. as if i didnt know that.
so he stayed home today, AGAIN, and he came on and off... but he didnt do anything with the twins. just say stupid things and not play with them... and if he did, which was for like 5 minutes, he wanted the games to go this way. ryan doesnt play adult's way. he plays the way he wants and when he's done he's done, bye. period. no more.
his dad wanted ryan to play this and that and ryan wasnt in the best mood to play with him.
what did daddy do/say? he got annoyed and started telling ryan: i'm gonna send you to your room. like that is gonna help ryan...

oh god, american parents...
and the thing i hate the most is the NO SPANKING rules they have here.
i dont remember talking to my mom the way Nicole talks to her mom, and she's only 4. I got a lot of slaps in my face for talking back to my mom. however, they believe that talking will help them realize the things. i do believe kids need a spanking once in a while.
but oh well... i'm just the nanny here. but i do think N&R need a good spanking.

anyway, ryan was whining and crying and being the usual spoiled boy he always is. i just can't stand him when he's like that. he's 4 years old. COME ON!!!! my techniques didnt work today, so i sent him to his bed - quiet time, nap time, whatever you wanna call it. i hope he goes to sleep for a little bit and he wakes up by himself.
me waking him up will be a disaster - may be i send nicole to wake him up...

it stopped snowing - thanks God. i dont feel like going anywhere tonite, but andrea called me and she wants to go to the gym. so i'll go with her. i dont know what G will do tonite. I just know i was wrong about the WTC attack.
yup. i'm :) i didnt bet any $ with him.
I said the 1st plane hit around 8.20am.
actually, it was 8.40am. the WTC collapsed at 10.30am
(and youtube deleted a bunch of cool footage from 9/11)

that's it from me for now. i'll be finishing laundry and bday preparations for tomorrow. it's susan's bday.
peace out!
