      Up at 530am for kids slotted to arrive at 545am, and they were a no show no call.

            6 yr old sa boy is here today because of spring break . You would think a kid this old would know enough to at least tell me when he poops ( the big D )on the bathroom floor . NOPE he leaves it there .

            On the bright side he will not be coming tomorrow since he has D .

                  This is so rude! I had a DCF that did this crap all the time until I finally put my foot down with them. I hate no calls, no shows but the butt crack of dawn ones are the worst!

                      omg. this is going to be a rough day. i woke up soooooo "sensory sensitive" that I'm feeling crazed and it's only my own kids so far. Auditory and tactile inputs are like nails on a chalkboard. I'm literally cringing, wincing, jumping from any sound, any sensation. I would be VERY happy in a sensory deprivation chamber right now.

                      I get like this when I have a migraine sometimes but I don't have a headache at all. I'm baffled and this is really really uncomfortable.

                      I have a few things I'm going to try, including my standard migraine cure (chocolate, 20oz coke, double dose of ibuprofen) but mostly I think it's going to be a heck of a long day. And I don't like this! I don't like feeling so....crazed...about every sound, every touch.
                      Hee hee! Look, I have a signature!

                        Ugh... I have an interview today that's been scheduled and reschedule like 5 times and it's not even for FT care! First she wanted just one day, but now it's just for backup care. I thought for sure a Friday would be better than a Monday but now I'm rethinking that! Blah!! Dh told me not to "try too hard" and stress myself out and it's true. I tidied up like usual but I'm not doing my usual song and dance. Here it is, take it or leave it! LOL

                          Ugh... Feel better soon!! That's icky! I've been back to using Excedrine migraine for mine. I haven't had a full blown migraine in awhile (knock on wood) since I've started taking it at my first symptom.

                            I have sent home 2 'reminder' notes that I am closed Good Friday and Easter Monday... Dcm sends a note that dcg will not be here on Monday. Great, cause I'm closed. Dcd picks up and says see you Monday. Um, no, you won't. He has a minor freak out wondering what they are going to do, at which point I tell him that dcm sent a note anyways that dcg wouldn't be here b/c dcm doesn't have to work. He then proceeds to argue with himself whether or not she actually works, then says "must be nice to have the day off" in a snarky tone.

                            I could have said "yes it is. I have watched your kid for 55 hours a week while you have sat at home doing nothing. I think I deserve a break once in a while."

                            Instead, I froze my facial features (they always give me away ) turned and walked away.

                            And this same family is now late for payment this morning. And no, I will not send reminders. I will call the daily late fees, and possible turn away on Tuesday morning, an apology for being such a.... fill in the blank.

                              What an ass!! I do feel your pain - I send home notes, verbally tell them *and* put a HUGE sign on my front door and I've still had people show up on a day off

                                When I worked at a center, I had a 2 year old who would slap me in the face and tell me no when I would be talking to him on his level. Such a lovely, well behaved child.
