I'm wont work bank holidays as all my parents are off and i know if i did say i would work they would want me to have the children whilst they were off I also get paid for it.
I am off down the yard for the day to spend sometime with my horse.

Hope you have a good day:)

Enjoy your day of Solly.

I'm looking after a Lo who's mum is a nurse at hospital, so no day off for her.

But guess what, Lo had a bad night and is now fast asleep

I'm working today but only have 1 mindee until 3pm and got a text this morning from mum of my f/t mindee to say that she was just going to keep him today...which is good because she would have gotten an earful from me about not paying her fees on time (still waiting) and it has put me o/d at the bank had to quickly transfer money so that I didn't get charged:angry:

i am working until 2pm. but i only have one of my LOs. I am charging extra!

We have just been down to the allotment with my OH and we have made a plan of action regarding planting etc. LO loved it cos we have lots of windmills and windsocks down there...he is only 13 months old.

he fell asleep on the walk back and is snoozing as i type.

OH is in the garden now measuring up to make new trellis.

Got this LO again on monday!

love mandy x

I'm not working today. My mindee finished last week and new lo doesn't start until first week in may.

I've put in contracts I don't work Bank Holidays, but will if required and will charge extra. Also need plenty of notice.

I worked (and tomorrow and Mon) until 7 to in include bathing mindee etc BUT there are extenuating circumstances and anyone would do the same. (I did start counting the hours at lunch though!)

Same here, it gives my parents that work the opportunity to practice finding other people to care for their children!:rolleyes:
