They said they'd pick him up at 2.

Now it's three and he's still here.

eta: I should have posted that an hour ago; he was picked up one minute later,

Tomorrow morning I'm going to text my 7:45 am drop off parents at 7:30 and tell them I'm running a bit late and I'll be ready sometime after 8. I'll text them when I'm ready. They are so loose with my schedule I'd love to mess with theirs for a change.

I would SO love to do that, but military FCC I'd get in trouble for that.

You naughty naughty assistant. You went on a crash green smoothie diet that ended up in the hospital for gallbladder. now since you go on a i dont know what kind of diet because you starve urself during your work days. Now in the hospital and you can't finish working out the 2 week notice you gave me because you werent taking care of yourself!!! ugh!!! you KNOW, KNOW that YoungStar is coming out anytime between today and the next four weeks. If they come out on a wed or thur when I will be over ratios, i will lose my 5 stars all the way down to 2 stars, just BECAUSE YOU WOULDNT TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF!!! How selfish. I will be happy otherwise that you are gone cuz i wont be wondering every morning if you'll be on time or come in at all and that you won't be draining my ui tax fund due to your FRAUD anymore!!!!happyface

HA! :: what the #%£} was I thinking when I got a SAND BOX?!? OMG! Huge mistake. One DCB just sat there and dumped a couple scoopfuls on the ground! Argh!! it gets all over, on everyone... Sticks and gets into diapers!? I think I'm going to take it out and put it in my off-limits yard area for my DS or the occasions that we let DCKs play on the structure. I really don't know what I was thinking!! It was only $35 and I could sell the stuff for $25 if I wanted to. I'm considering that too! I've been saving to order a water table this summer with my Pampers points but worry that will be another mistake! it's hard doing fun stuff with so many littles, they're currently 18m, 22m, 2.3y and 2.5y.

water tables are awesome! I would NEVER do sand again. I put them in suits and let them go at it with the water. Scoop, dump/pour, repeat. No worries about mess because it's just water!

DCG, why oh why can't you remember that your little friend cannot hear you? He is deaf, just as he was yesterday, and all last week too. Yelling louder when you are standing behind him is not going to help. Tap him on the shoulder and he will gladly go play with you!

Whoa wait what just happen?? Dcm just decided for me that she got a credit from last week cause they ended going out of town... geez happened so fast i didn't correct it. now what do i do?? Uggggg

[TwinKristi]

I would call her and say Whoa Nellie... I'm not sure if you forgot how our contract works but tuition is NOT based on attendance but a spot that is reserved in my care for your child. If you choose not to come I'm still paid. If you're not a confrontational person then print out a copy of your contract highlighting that part and an invoice or note with what she owes.

I totally do NOT understand this line of thinking from parents. So you expect your provider to have an undependable income because of YOUR plans?

Like TK said, invoice her right away. Maybe at pick up? Good luck! :hug:

[Oss_cc]

Ugh, this baby is killing me! Everyday it's either take two fifteen minute naps and/or take one slightly longer nap and wake up SCREAMING the house down.
Maybe it's all the caffeine DCM drinks (breastfed)? We've had the same routine for six months, and her sleep is getting worse rather than better. I just cannot see how an 8 month old baby can sleep for 15-45 mins total in a ten hour period.

Pretty sure this kindle will be thrown or stomped on before I get to level 425. I've got lots of patience with kids but not this game!
