Day Five..

Day five already!! So today we had a family breakfast on the balcony.. I had a chocolate dipped croissant not what I had asked for but it’s what my dad thought I’d like from the shop.. Daisy had a donut again not what I’d asked my dad for but never mind.. Lily also had the same as me. 

-Lily & Daisy at breakfast-

We creamed up and headed to the pool. 

Lily was driving my insane! Lily as much as I love her to pieces I could honestly leave her at home some days! Daisy was a bit tired not sure if her chronic lung disease is causing problems so she wanted to have a sleep. So I got out the pool to get her to sleep.. I left lily alone in the pool, now she is 8 years old and is a very good swimmer so I had no concerns that she was fine. The pool is also a private pool that we’ve literally had to ourselves all holiday! Anyway, she decides she’s going to play the ‘You love her more then me’ card! Which ok maybe I do treat Daisy a bit different she almost died several times and has ongoing health problems that make me appreciate my time spent with her a little differently but anyway.. lily starts huffing and puffing and complaining! So I take her out the pool and walk her back to the apartment. We discuss how she’s behaving like a spoilt brat and that me being outside the pool for ten minutes isn’t being unreasonable.. i should be ok to expect she can entertain herself for at least thirty minutes! But no, Lily disagrees. She’s hard work! She is very demanding. Very spoilt. Very all about me! Very not how I brought her up! So we have a chat, this is a regular thing for us and it’s done. ..Daisy never actually went to sleep in the end.

It’s now dinner time, so we all walk over to the shop to get a nice baguette and meat to eat. We stopped off in a few tat shops and all bought ankle bracelets. 

-Lunch or dinner-

We eat our dinner at the pool and then play in the pool.. I was the shark that was attacking the boats. The girls thought it was an ace game! 

Then it was time again to go get ready to go out! 

Tonight we went to the restaurant we had cocktails in a few nights ago that was on the front. I ordered a purple rain.. it was stunning! 

-Purple Rain-

Whilst I was enjoying my cocktail my dad rang my grandma back at home.. my grandad is currently in hospital and she’s by herself.. she told my dad about a guy knocking on her door to see if she wanted any gardening doing. She had said yes and let him in! He then tried charging her over £1000.. he was there a few hours!!!! She doesn’t have that kind of money, but gave him what she did have! My dad went crazy! My grandma got upset. My dads instinct was I’m coming home. Which is my dad all over, family is first and if someone isn’t doing well and they need support he’s the first there. I told him that he wasn’t to leave and he should ring his sister my auntie instead. Now she and my uncle are the complete opposite of my dad! They never help and never care unless it concerns them. I have argued with her in the past over how wrong she is to expect my dad to do everything.. so he rings her! Her reply was as expected.. I’m too busy!! Now she is with a man that has money, she works because she is bored at home twice a week which I believe is on a Thursday and a Friday .. she doesn’t have to! They don’t need the money. She goes to the gym every morning and has lunches with the girls. So how she can be too busy to go take care of her mum for the two weeks we’re away is beyond me!! My dad, and my mum, myself and sister all work full time jobs.. we all have taken unpaid leave from work to ensure she and my grandad are ok! Why the f*** can’t she! So back to the actual story.. my dad gets off the phone and is clearly upset. Firstly at the fact that he can’t do anything and secondly at the fact that my auntie is a selfish cow! I then suggest he rings our family friend who works for the police for some advice.. she suggests reporting it and offers to go see her! Yes a complete stranger to my grandma offers to go see her but my grandmas daughter is too busy for her!!… an hour or so passes and my dad recalls my grandma to suggest she goes to live in our house where we know she has our neighbours that would assist her completely and she’d be safe of course we are worried this guy is going to return.. but before he gets chance to my gran reveals my auntie has just been on the phone offering to come down tomorrow! Guess she felt guilty! My dad now feels a little more at ease, our police lady friend is calling by also tomorrow to check she is ok. 

We then went to the table for food!!! Me and my dad love sea food!! So we ordered a sea food sharer, it was nice but wasn’t amazing! 

Daisy was fast asleep by this time! After we had eaten.. and drank several more cocktails we headed home!
