So after stellar success on Monday (only one accident all day, staying dry through her 3 hour nap, getting up after bedtime to poop on the potty), Janie had zero interest in using the potty yesterday or today. I set the timer on Tuesday, she’d fight going, would sit for a minute and say she couldn’t go, then five minutes later, she’d go while playing. Every half hour, like clockwork. Finally, I sent her outside, and after another accident out there, just let her run around naked until lunchtime. At naptime, she begged for a diaper and said she wanted to be a baby. Today, she wouldn’t even let me change her nighttime diaper until almost lunchtime (yuck!). Tomorrow we’re out and about all morning at CBS, so maybe we’ll try again on Friday.
And I have been overdoing it on my foot. Apparently short stints of walking around CBS, church, or the grocery store are really just too much. I’d been letting my boot off at home when it got too hot and sweaty, but now I’m in it again all the time, and it does seem to help. I told Derek that yesterday, when I didn’t cook, clean, or do much of anything, it was okay. But that’s not really an option, so I’m not sure what to do now. Trying to plan lots of big meals and leftovers for a few days.
