finally made a decision

[lulubelle]

you are probably getting fed up of my moaning by now but this morning (well the last few days actually i have been at the end of my tether and on the verge of quiting completly. Well after speaking to another lovely childminder today and hearing that this child actually has a bit of a reputation etc i will be giving him notice in a couple of weeks (after i have sent out questionaire/asked for references etc!) i feel like a massive weight has been lifted from my shoulders, no more hr + school runs and doing 100+ miles a week!!!

please tell me i will find some nice, normal children and parents soon!

Hope you find some lovely families soon
