Dr put me on AB's and they seem to be working, but I also got Steroids again for my chest . The amount of bloody steroids I take I should look like Arnie, instead I look like SpongeBob (I'm not yellow tho )
Anyway enough of my rambling. New baby starts tomorrow, and yesterday and today I have had in my lovely boy who left in September. The family are emigrating to Oz on Saturday, and instead of mindee going sea fright in a box, they thought it was a good idea to have him out of the house. So I get two days with him before they go
My DS is much better but of course is still off preschool. My mindee who was sick yesterday morning is back today though
New Year Resolution: Keep strictly to 48 hour exclusion rule when D&V involved.
Shoshe, poor you. Sounds like to have been put through the mill. I am glad that you're feeling better today.
Completely off topic: DH went out last night and bought us a hoooooge wide screen tv. I had said please please please wait til January sales. He had it in his head to go and buy it so he did . Now all I can say is Gee Whizz! What a gorgeous TV - picking my battles again..... The TV is not worth a row, but I really wished he'd waited.
Shoshe glad you are feeling better, good luck with your new mindee.
Gal - have a good day
No4 - sorry that mindee is back - send out a news letter at christmas, wishing them a happy holiday and detail your new d and v policy in line with government guidelines!!
The mums house is still poorly, ds4 is clingy, not sleeping etc etc but am hopeing that ab's will kick in soon. ds3 is still coughing and his ab's are aout to finish, ds2 has a cough that is slowly getting worse - out comes the tixlix and nurofen! and ds1 is just tired and stroppy!! Have a good day ladies
The 48 hour thing doesn't work here with some of my parents either number4 and
Bloody PITA when they come back too early.
Oh and bloody DH's eh? Thankfully mune isn't into gadgets and whatnot. DS1 is tho and bought himself a 42" flat screen/woofer/super duper job for his bedroom. Twit!!!
I used to issue a little note to parents 9like a school permission slip) on it was last time of sickness, and time of return to childcare, I found that helped.
If the child hasnt come in to childcare, why not do it by email or text?
Morning all - I like the idea of the permission slip - mostly my parents are great about it though the one time it happens about 5 of us went down with it & we had to close
I still haven't booked anything DH won't pay £2500 for canaries (self catering) & we can't afford much else - I think I am in the wrong frame of mind tbh
I would hate a big TV - I am really not into them - but DH is a big of a gadget man too
Anyway - off to work (unless DH takes pity on my & works this am, so I can sleep)
Hi All...am not stasrting till 11.30 so have been scanning my eyfs stuff fo ryou lot..but wanted to say hi and if you get a strange email, then its just me...Mmsanutter, have you heard back from hosp re appointment yet?.x
Decent TV's are expensive - I wimpered when ours died a death (in January - when we were skint). The only thing I can say is that I don't think you really get any genuine bargains in the sales - especially for electrical items - at least you get to enjoy a nice big TV over Christmas. Plus tell him it can be his Christmas present and save yourself a job.
<whispers - its not HD is it - if so the nagging will soon start to upgrade the skybox>
I am going to be really firm about D&V - my Ds2 suffered from reflux until only 6 months ago and once he starts vomiting it is a bugger to get him to stop.
The mindee (aged2) I am looking after atm is finishing after Christmas as her mum has got another job. I am going to still look after her sister one day after school. Her mum has said is it OK if I look after the 2 yr old mindee every now and then if she manages to get extra shifts/work. I have said fine depending on space etc. Should I keep her on my books records wise? also I was thinking of drafting a temporary contract to use for her and then annexing a sheet every time she did extra hours referring back to the original. Is that Ok or am I going about it in a complicated way?
Pink, no I haven't heard from the hospital yet, and am beginning to make myself a little ill. Not sleeping (due to me and ds3), so am getting headaches and sore eyes, and no dh to give me a rest - how many bets when he comes home I get every illness going!! but then so will he, he is going to feel the difference from hong kong to here!!!
No4, I made the mistake a few years ago of telling dh to get the tv he wanted, as the old one blew up mid veiwing! and we now have a 42inch, sony lcd rear projection thingy!! I don't know gadgets but you can watch a good film on it and pretend we are at the cinema!
aw chick, i hope you and DS3 are feeling much better really soon..can you give the hosp/gp a ring?..id rather be thought of than a pain in the RS than be sat worrying.x
well!, think im done scanning eyfs for you all for now, next training course WAS tonight but dd's parentsd evening so going next tues, will share my stuff again if its of any use this time?

Pinkchick - could I have a copy of the EYFS stuff as well? I know I'm not a CM, but I want to start getting to know this EYFS stuff a bit better. Email address is on my profile, if you don't know it already
I've just completed an e-learning course on Safeguarding Children. As I'm having an extra day off today, thought I'd catch up on doing some updating to my training.
