Dear DCP,

Thank you for telling me how absolutely horrible of a person I am. It was very sweet of you. Never mind the fact that you never paid on time, you were always extremely early- like a 45- an hour, always late picking up, always bringing your druggie boyfriends with you to drop off your child, and the list goes on.

Shove it-
you ex-provider.

Dear daycare family,

DCM, I believe you are horrible for saying goodbye to your daughter but not your step son at drop off even though I remind you to everyday. I find it disgusting that you text asking how only your daughter is and not your step son. I find it neglectful that you bring your 4 month old daughter here with out socks or long sleeve shirt everyday when it has been between 50-60 degrees here.
DCD, I have no respect for you at all. You are truely a bad parent. You tell me your son steals food. How can a child do that? Your son is allowed to eat in my home and he enjoys plenty of fresh fruit, vegetables and home cooked meals here. It is a disgrace that you are home from work everyday by 2:30 but don't pick your children up untill 6 pm everyday.
DCM and dcd I see why you are with each other. You are both poor excuses for humans and parents.

DCD, thank you so much for letting me know that DCG would be coming at normal time this morning. I chose to not go have my bloodwork done this morning so I would be here when she showed up.

Guess who didn't show up this morning??????????????

Ran to the store last night after the last dck (late pick up too) and as soon as we get in the store DD starts acting off, hunched over and wanting to be held which is not like her. So I forget half of what a I need and the second we get home DD vomits all over. After 3 outfit changes for me, 4 for her, 2 baths, 2 sheet changes, and using every towel in our house I finally get her to sleep at 11pm. Of couse she wakes up every hour and a half screams and goes back to sleep, then is up at 545am for the day (today is my only day to sleep in until next weekend ). The vomiting is passed and she's acting totally normal just VERY tired.

I have no idea what that was from!

I have a dcm that does the opposite. Her almost 3yr old is very big for his age and they keep putting him in size 4 diapers. He weighs 45 pounds. They also buy the really cheap brands and he wets right thru them. Too but with this small size his shirt and pants are always wet. I have asked them repeatedly to bring larger size diapers but they say that they can't find any. Hello you buy these at walmart I think you can find 5's or 6's too

I have a very young DCM (young as in, she is putting her baby in DC so that she can finish high school) ... says 9 month old infant is down to 1 nap a day, only drinking 1 bottle here (before his nap), and baby does a horrible job with eating baby food. I'm kind of at a loss on what to do with him. He's asleep now (cried himself to sleep on the floor), so this afternoon should be a huge blast :\

OT but sooo aggravating and a little sad. I got a new phone today. Very much the same as the last one, just a different make. I asked that all my pics be transferred to this phone. The guy put it on the machine and it said it did it, but I didn't check. I then sold my previous phone back to the store. When I checked a little while ago, I saw that it only copied the first 100 or so, out of almost 600. Not including any from the holidays for the past year and a half, nor the ones I took for a work project coming up next week . Windows phones do not use SD cards and he wiped my old phone. So all my pictures are gone forever. Sigh.

That stinks! So sorry!

I am SOOOOOOO beyond tired of teachers as clients. I make it crystal clear when I interview that I am NOT school calendar schedule as I usually only have one teacher family out of 4 or 5 families and thus work year 'round. I make it clear that they need to have back up care.

I do not need your "permission" to take time off during the school year. Every job has its perks and mine is not being confined to school calendar schedule for my days off.

[Hunni Bee]

Thanks guys. The worst part about it is that the ones it did copy are ones I could care less about. I'm just glad it happened now and not after my daughter is born. I have noticed that this new phone does have an SD slot, so hopefully this won't happen again.

DH is driving me batty, I swear all he cares about anymore is himself.

DCKs go down at 1230 for nap, DD at 1pm, DH leaves for work at 1:15pm (works late shift til June 15th)

I remind him "don't forget naps at 12:30 and 1 so please get ready before then" and get "yeah yeah I know, I heard you"

So I do my thing and put everyone down at normal times, then at 1:05 DH come storming in from the garage and announces he needs to take a shower, he "forgot about the nap schedule" :confused: and has to take a shower now. Well DD's bedroom is right next to the bathroom and he's incapable of being quiet so he wakes her up (she was so tired, when I laid her down at 1 she was out) and she spends the next 45mins screaming (I don't just let her scream in the room BTW), she finally falls asleep at 1:55 but at 2:15 wakes up screaming again. She won't go back to sleep so she's up and still screaming away because she is tired and now I have 2 other DCKs that normally sleep til 3:30 awake.

Yay an afternoon of screaming & a 20 minute nap, what a great evening this is going to be. Of course DH doesn't care because he doesn't have to deal with any of it because he's off to work. Outta sight out of mind. I may have sent him a less than friendly text & am debating recoding the screaming and sending it to him

DCK was out for a few days last week. Today DCM asks what she owes for next Friday (month end) as if she expects a deal because they went on vacation.

Seriously.

1) You pay upfront for the month

2) Next weeks fees are for the NEXT month

3) You owe for everyday

sheesh.

Been a bad day all around here. MIL was here visiting with her dog so that was a big distraction during lunch and naptime. The only dkb is 16 mos and not walking or steady on his feet yet. He fell backwards and hit his head on the wall and got a bump on his head, and fell forward on a toy and bruised and made a mark on his chin. My own daughter (not yet 3 yrs) fell and hit her nose she looks horrible. The two dkgs (almost 2 yrs) chose to only take about an hour nap today. This was after refusing to eat the lunch I prepared for them. I'm ready for a long weekend. Luckily I will only have 4 days next week then off for a total of 10 days on vacation. If only we could afford to go away for a few days.
