Well today a 6 month old baby came to my daycare, sounding awful!! She has been gradually getting worse and worse. I have told the Mom at pick up, how she has been all week, and getting worse. THis am sounded horrible. She is in a good mood, just sounds terrible, coughing and even breathing. I let her take naps, here and got worse throughout the day. Is in a great mood, but has been all week, and still sleeping great. I listened to her lungs after her afternoon nap, and sound bad. I let the Mom know, and told her, she really needs to be seen by the DR. Her Mom can't talk herself, hasn't been able to all week. So she tells me today, that she took the day off today, because she wouldn't be able to talk to her students. OMG!! I couldn't believe it!! If I would have known she was sitting at home all dang day, I would have called her and told she needs to take her to the DR. I am worried about RSV with her. I have a little 2 yr old of my own, plus 3 other daycare children, that she just infected. I tried my hardest to keep her away from everyone today!!! I had to keep my mouth closed when she told me she was home all day!! Well she will not be returning tomorrow needless to say, and if the DR. has her on an antibiotic, she will not be returning til next week. We will see. I am so mad right now!! WOW!!! I hope my own children and myself do not get it!!

I just walked out to my garage and found my sil having a cigarette!
#1 He knows it's illegal, I make my niece smoke in her car across the street. #2 I've never seen him with a cigarette in over 10 years.
I found one in the flower bed yesterday and wondered where it came from, now I know. I am not too happy with him right now.Comment

I only have 4 days left with my problem family before their termination date which is great. But seeing Dad in my driveway waiting for me to open AGAIN to drop off the kids when I know Mom is at home sleeping really got to me this morning.
Only 4 more days...I can do anything for 4 days. I can even bite my tongue for 4 more days.Comment

Last night was a rough night! Both of my DD are sick (ages 16 mos and 6 yrs) and took turns most of the night keeping me up. I think I got maybe 2 hours of sleep.
I am just praying that since I am so tired it doesnt drop my immune system so I get this nasty cold too.
Hopefully my group of little tigers will take it easy on me. I am feeling a bit like an injured antelope.
Injured antelope doesnt doesnt usually fare well with tigers, but I will find the strength somewhere. I usually do.

Only day 4 or a 6 day school vacation. I'm going to have a nervous breakdown! DCB who has been a challenge from day 1 (he was here for a year and a half before going to summer camp and then school) is here on winter break (kindergartener) and I'm ready to lose it! He still takes 80% of my energy/attention with his fits, hitting, screaming, etc. This has been the longest week of my life! Next Wednesday will feel like heaven!!!
...and release...Comment

DH had to leave for work early and when he got me up I found that I am horribly dizzy...almost can't walk, very hard to function dizzy. It ****s. His sympathy? Next to zero. Grrreat...two babies and two older dcks and I am so very dizzy. Not sure what to do except try not to move very much.
AND 6 mo dcb was circumcised on Friday and I of course have to deal with the "aftermath" of it...I guess it's mostly just putting a cream on him at every diaper change but I *asked* last week what I would have to do to care for it and they said nothing, that he was supposed to be fine by today! I feel lied to and I don't like it. I have exactly ZERO experience with circumcision care and told them that. *sigh* poor baby.
Dcd is all "oh it's awful, it made me wince in pain" and I'm all, "DUDE you CHOSE to do this to your child! How DARE you say that when you CHOSE to inflict this pain on him to 'give him a pretty penis'?" Yes, that's a direct quote...ugh. I had regained a modicum of respect for these parents when I saw that dcb was uncirc'd, but nope, not anymore! He just wasn't "done" at birth for medical reasons.Hee hee! Look, I have a signature!Comment

Wow!!!! Judgemental much? I don't think it's ANY of your business if people choose to circumcise their children.If you can't care for him then please don't!

Well...yes...I am judging them for this one! They chose to circumcise their son and are complaining to me about how he's "sore" and how it "looks awful" when they made the CHOICE to cause him this pain! Circumcision is a choice and they made it, I don't think they should be complaining to me about it!
I am caring for the child, I don't mind that...I DO mind not being warned (when I asked directly) that he's screaming bloody murder at diaper changes, needs this antibiotic cream put on which makes him scream *even more* and that he scream at other random times during the day for no apparent reason but are probably related to his poor sore little boy bits!
I don't judge them for their choice even though I do NOT agree with either the choice or their reasons (And I have a son of my own tyvm, so it's not like I have no clue..I also have three nephews...)...I am judging them for complaining about their choice and seeing their choice as such an inconvenience and imposition to them! "Ugh it was an awful weekend, he screamed soooo much"
This is a venting thread. I'm venting. Get over it. It doesn't affect my care of the poor kid, for goodness sake! I'm giving him extra cuddles and snuggles and apologizing for all the pain. I suppose that's wrong, huh?Last edited by SilverSabre25; 03-05-2012, 10:08 AM.Hee hee! Look, I have a signature!Comment

Bad timing!!
Now is not the time for me to be so stressed!!!
DH is working long hours, with more accounts coming on his route. That's good for the pocketbook, bad for his energy levels. Our children act up more when they don't get much Daddy time.
We are spending any and almost all free time helping out with building our new church. That should only last through the middle of April at the longest. So worthwhile I know, but again...time is stretched.
I have pretty much decided to remove my 2 kids out of the virtual academy and do hs'ing independently, so I have been trying to muddle through all the curriculum choices. There are soooo many choices.
And 2 dcb's have been acting up worse than ever. If I can get through the summer with them, then mom will have to find care for them after school starts.
I really need some quiet time to sort through all of the thoughts that are running circles in my head. I can't seem to get a grip on any one thing...ugghh hate ADD.
At least our family vacation is coming up soon....day spa...beach....Here I come!Comment
