**curlycathy** · 09-01-2011, 01:55 PM

My darling wonderful dh has landed a really good contract, but its working away so

I QUIT!!!!

Before Christmas I was getting worried cos from Feb I will only have one mindee but now I can choose to work or not and I choose NOT!!

NO MORE PAPERWORK

I am just going to be mummy for a while. Given notice to mindee today - emotional but I know I'm doing right by my family. Will help her find someone else cos I do care about them.

I feel straaaaaaaange!

**curlycathy** · 10-01-2011, 08:02 AM

Will definitely come to yours for lunch!!

Getting bit worried now...have I got to learn how to bake properly???

What if I turn into Bree??????

not looking forward to tomorrow when he goes at 6am and then I have to get ready for a full day at work worrying about him

Ah well - suppose I'll just have to keep reminding myself:

9 FEB!!!!

Of course you have to learn to bake properly you mean you can't I have this image of you in the kitchen baking lovely cakes at the weekends you have disillusioned me. No Idea about Bree as don't watch it but if she is a perfect housewife definitely lol

**curlycathy** · 10-01-2011, 08:14 AM

You've seen our chaotic house at the weekend!!!

I can bake - sort of! Just make lots of mess - which is easy to blame on the kiddywinkies when I'm working

**Helen Dempster** · 10-01-2011, 09:50 AM

oh you lucky, lucky thing!!!!! I'm so jealous!!!! Sounds FAB

**Tinglesnark** · 10-01-2011, 09:54 AM

Congrats to both of you! enjoy!

WOW, what a lovely position to be in.

I am ever so slightly envious, i have had the day from hell with a parent pulling a fast one at the last minute leaving us with a difficult few months or the option to give notice but this family is over half of our current income!

I would so love to be able to quit and just look after my kids and my dog!
