Childcare: the bane of the SAHM

[ailbhe]

We have someone to watch Linnea on Monday afternoon.

Nothing on Tuesday, which is awkward because she can't come to the morning appointment.
The reliable teenager all day Tuesday.

Someone all day Wednesday.

Definitely two hours' relief on Thursday afternoon.

Nothing at allAlison in the morning on Friday, but my mother arrives Friday night so I might be able to recover over the weekend if I have to push too hard. Plus, Nicki may be in a position to help a bit, perhaps. She's due back from Prague soon and might be a bit recovered by then.

I never, ever foresaw that the most difficult thing to organise as a stay at home mother would be childcare. Never.

And I miss her so much! At least she's only gone two whole days this week.

I empathise, I still haven't been able to find childcare for Holls for my weekly group therapy sessions. It lasts for 6 months too :/
