We had one of those Barney's that interacts with the TV and PC for my youngest D. You are right - it was creepy. It was so funny though if you had people come round who didn't know it was interactive. They would see my D watching the TV next to her Barney and comment on how sweet they looked, but as soon as the Barney commented on something going on on the TV, or it moved, they used to jump out of their skin.

andy, tough question. I am sure W didn't forget about your request to keep OM out of house, so I guess bringing it up again would just bring tension. And saffie is right, a parent is on constant standby when sleepovers are involved.
However, I know of your worry and concern (and some dread), and I feel for you. Seems like W is in a different place (a little out of the fog for whatever reason) and is respecting you more. Have a safe trip!
I haven't said anything to W. But sneaky me did "spin" it abit. I stocked up on groceries for DD (school stuff) whilst I am away for the week, and told W I had done it, and mentioned to her that if the job goes well, I should be home on Saturday evening, if not then I will probably be home on Mon. Sort of left it in the air, and she didn't even raise an eyebrow, just, okay.
Naughty me
I didn't mention anything about OM, but at least leave her thinking that I might be back, just in case she has any plans.
I know I should trust her, but geez, after everything, it will take a while.
