    Don't Sweat The Small Stuff...

    ...this is not so small.

    Well, I kept thinking things will get a bit better financially with all the school agers here for summer. I guess I have another thing coming.

    Dcg 5 parents give notice yesterday, found someone closer, a SAHM providing care for 1/2 of my rate.

    Two parents inform me that their daughters are going to summer school for 6 weeks over the summer and one of those will spend the rest of summer at grandma's, the other also has 2 weeks of vacation they are going to the Smoky Mountains.

    And last, at least I hope, dcg 7 is moving about 40 minutes away in mid July cause dad is graduating and has a new job. This family has been with me 7 years and they just started trying to have a baby so I lost the baby too.

    This ****s. Everyone please send me some full time kids mojo or prayers or something.

            Come to our little town! Many people needing care and not enough providers. I turn people away and I'm not even full. I just can't handle anymore kids (cough, cough, I don't want to add to my mix...totally burnt out).

              I've learned it can be feast or famine. When I'm in a famine I get so afraid it will never pick up again then suddenly I'm getting more calls than I can handle. I know it will be the same for your. It will be ok. :hug:
