So much for babysitters...

Well, the new sitter welshed out on me. After watching her on Friday and yesterday, she decided she couldn't devote the time for Vicky on top of watching the other kids she does. No notice, just a phone call. Another girl, Erin, called yesterday evening and wants to try her hand at watching her. I think it's going to get harder and harder as she gets older trying to find someone for her. I may end up having to move to Waco just to find more available sitters. I can't do that until she finishes school. This is so hard as a single parent. I have to work to pay bills and take care of her. The stress of all of it is eating me up. Isn't life grand? NOT...

Hey Symply, so sorry about the new sitter.....good luck vibes coming your way for Erin. There are still a lot of good caring people out there, I hope one can find their way to you and kidlet.
Take a big breath and start again tomorrow. You are in my thoughts.

Erin welshed out on me too. I am now using my lunch break to drive back to my town to pick up daughter from school and drive her back to Waco to stay with old sitter who has graciously agreed to keep on watching her. In the summer it won't be so bad, next school year, is a whole other story... thanks!
