    So glad to hear you are ok but wow! Crazy how quickly things can happen.... I know you know what you are doing as far as medical attention etc but please please don't try to be "okay" too much if you aren't....

    :hug:
    Thank you. :hug:

    The spots still look pretty good right now. I only have another hour and a half so if that changes I can run out.

    Grateful my ponytail saved my neck.

        I am. Thank you. lovethis

        I am down to one infant, now. A couple spots look like they are not going to blister after all.

        The most worrisome spot is less than the circumference of a dime, now. It is shiny, white/grey and crepey. On my cheekbone, just under the corner of my left eye and temple. The area around it is pretty sore and red but it does not hurt, yet. I know how to care for it. It should not be too bad at all once it heals.

        Dinner is ready, so hopefully the drama is over for the night.::

          Oh No!! Not a good thing to have happen. I know you know what you're doing. Just know I'm thinking of you. No pain worse than a burn. And tell hubby he needs to hurry up and get better, YOU need to be taken care of too.

                Argh!!!! 4 1/2 yo bit my 5 yo yesterday.
                5 yo had jumped on top of 4 yo and he bit her. They're both extremely physical with each other. When I told 4 yo's mom, she said 'wow, he hasn't bit in a long time'. He's been here 11 months and has never bitten anyone but she said he used to bite at his previous dc.
                I came right out and told him and dcm that at 4 1/2, he needs to tell others how he feels and what he needs/wants, rather than bite someone.
                Other than that, it wasn't a bad Monday after being off 4 days.

                  Another 2 children died due to drowning-Knoxville

                  I knew about this Friday from friends of mine... what pisses me off was the lady had been told to close down for illegally running a childcare (stating she was licensed, but she wasn't) & I was getting calls from her clients for interviews these past few weeks. Now this family has lost their twin babies

                    Can't begin to imagine the heartache of the parents.

                      What's worse is how many kids she actually had even as far back as January when she was first being investigated... different news story

                        Same family that I changed my hours because they are here until 6pm brings their child who is visibly sick but dads off work. Guess who got a phone 10 minutes later to pick up. Like wth people. Green snot, coughing, red flushed cheeks. I don’t even need to take a temp because you can see he is not feeling well.

                            Yes but it took them 45 minutes. And he was not happy about it. You could tell in his deamenor and the fact that he was short with me. Oh well dude, your kid is sick and doesn’t belong in care today.

                                Doesn't help now but my policies state that when I call for pick up, the parent has x amount of time to get here until late fees ($1 per minute) begin accruing. How much time you allow is dependent on your area. All my families work within 15 minutes of my daycare facility so I allow 30 minutes before I begin adding late fees.
