Dcm mind your own business

So yesterday I was getting after a dcb who has drop off issues every day. I told him he would go lay down if he didn't stop his screaming and whining said it right in front of his mom just as another dcm walked in and heard me say that to dcb. This morning she tells my assistant about it thinking my assistant is the boss my assistant said no she want the person to be telling. Sorry you don't like that I will go lay a screaming child down but mind your own business it didn't pertain to you or your kid. Mind you own friggin business! Seriously what do I say to her if she brings it up to me today? I'm not happy that she went to my assistant.

Please stop, share, do not do that.....etc

Okay, so today is a day of retrain, every minute, I am telling the kids to stop, do not do that, be nice, share, stop running, do not bang the toys together do not tear pages from the books, I FEEL I HAVE LOST ALL CONTROL!
I am losing my mind, cold weather, snow and children not dressed for the weather to even go out is driving me crazy. I do not know what has happened and why harmony has left the building, but I WANT IT BACK!!!
Any stress reliever ideas would be awesome!

OT, but- We were supposed to have a huge snow storm starting last night and going into tomorrow morning. Well everywhere south and east of us got slammed- like 3-5 feet of actual snowfall. We got maybe an inch or two.

I love the snow, and I was really looking forward to actually having some. I am seeing everyone's pictures on Facebook of all the snow, and I just want to move.

There are pictures that show the storm, and you can actually see where the storm stops in the south end of the city and they are not moving.

After having a frigid cold snap, and I'm in Canada - so when i say cold, i mean COLD, we are finally having a chinook; so we could actually go outside for a change and what happens?? Dcg 18 months, comes without boots. Mom had to go home twice already because she had forgotten stuff and was in tears, so I obviously didn't make an issue of it, but grrr. It was a waste of a good day. Oh and another dcm NEVER sends snowpants for her kids, so that limits us too. I feel your frustration.

Vent #1-This morning I spent almost 20 minutes trying to explain to an infant room parent that I don't work in the infant room. During this conversation, the real teacher comes in so I tell mom to talk with IR teacher. Mom then turns around and sees the teacher. She then turned back to me and said, "Oh you don't work in here? Well I can't keep up with you people. You all look alike to me". After a few seconds, she realized what she said and quickly left the room. It took about 15 min for the shock to wear off. Tomorrow morning should be real interesting.

Vent #2-DCD brought DCG 3 in dressed in spaghetti strapped shirt and capri pants complete with sandals. He proudly announced that DCG picked out her clothes and dressed herself. This morning's temp? 22°. Dad was sent back home for weather appropriate class and was not happy. Somebody please tell me there was a full moon last night because I can't think of any reason for this inanity.

Thank goodness I scheduled in an extra half hour before I needed to close for a doctor appointment today. Because in spite of the notes in the cubby and the email and the HUGE SIGN on TWO DOORS, one family did not realize I was closing early.

I out a full size notice ON TOP the sign in sheet. Parents have to move it to sign in.

On certain occasions, I have had a sign that I require parents to sign at drop off acknowledging that they KNOW I am closing early or on xx date.

Sorry that happened to you.

It must be reorganizing day! My dh is reorganizing our garage so we can fit our truck and jeep in it, which is great, but he'll ask if I can help lift this or that. NO! I have kids here.
And the snowblower was started, but thankfully the kids just went down for nap and the driveway is on the opposite side of the napping room.
Oh and don't forget the "can you get me this, can you get me that", like I don't have a million things to do myself. Ahhhhh! GET IT YOURSELF...

Would love to be in Canada!
