I have a family that is here temporarily. I took them on back in October and the contract is only til my other dcm comes back from maternity leave(she's due Wednesday). She was all good up until the past few weeks. Every time she walks in she'll ask the kids of the pregnant mom if she's had the baby... It's like come on we live in a small enough town that she'll know when she has the baby, plus I'll tell her when her 10 weeks start for her to get a new daycare.

She pulled a fast one on me today though. She pays me Monday mornings and last week she didn't call until 5:17 to let me know she'd be late. Per my contract I charge $1/minute past 5:15(my closing time) until I get a call/text or they show up. So I added the $2 to her bill last week.

Check comes today, no late fee. So I got ahold of her and asked her if she didn't see it or if she just ignored me and she goes "What late fee." So I explained it to her and she goes "My clock said 5:10 when I called you so that is what I went by, but whatever." I told her that I go by my cell phone clock since that is the most accurate you can get really. She threw a hissy fit and just kept saying, yup whatever.

I also get about 1-2 texts a DAY asking if dcm has had the baby, I'll tell her "When she has the baby I'll let you know." Does she not get it?

I know she is upset with me for telling dcd (mom and dad are not together) last Friday that I would not put up with oldest girls attitude anymore. She'll sit and kick her sister through nap time, if I move her, she'll scream and yell and carry on the whole time...she's 5 also! So I told dad that if dcg has another day like she did Thursday, I'll call him to come pick the kids up, I won't deal with it. Now mom is all snotty towards me and asking "So when was the last time your kids didn't take a nap, when was the last time your son kicked his brother."

Come on baby come out!!!! I need dcm to have that baby so I can start loving my job again.
