DYK the 'tough love' thing will take awhile...it might even take a couple of weeks, but if you can stick with your routine, and with being tough, your life will be so much smoother then.
DYK our bedtime was always 8:00 for the kids because DH and I wanted some time for 'us' after the kids went down.
DYK Where my children went to school velcro was forbidden in kindergarten?
DYK If they could not tie their shoes they were not kept out of kindergarten, but they really stressed in the spring that they would like the child to know how to tie when they came to school in the fall?
DYK the teachers said if they wore velcro it would just prolong them learning to tie?
DYK I'm absolutely not willing to pay someone to paint? It's not hard, you just have to go slow, tape things off if you haven't painted before and be sure to use drop cloths to protect the floor.
DYK if you are going to pay that much to have someone paint, I'd really spend the money to go get a sample? Go buy a few quarts of the colors you are considering and slap them all up on the wall. It will help you choose.

DYK that's what everyone always told me (it's just paint...)
DYK but then I got quotes for painting our bedroom...$1500 (including paint!).
DYK that was a year ago, and we still have yet to decide on a color because we need to make the right choice.
DYK I love that picture!
DYK I love itty bitty babies?
DYK sigh....makes me want another baby?

DYK I feel SO much better today!
DYK for $1500 (inc paint) I'm tempted to fly to New York and paint your bedroom for you?
DYK is there something weird about your bedroom that makes it that expensive?
DYK it's really not that hard to paint...have you thought about doing it yourself?
DYK the best thing you can do it buy a high quality cutting (edging) brush...it makes it so much easier...and they're maybe $10-15?

DYK I'm so happy for you!!
DYK I'm sure you'll have a great time!
