Help! I've seen a job which is ideal for me in a neighbouring town 7 miles away.Its 5 mornings a week start time is 8.45 am. This means I would have to set off from my home ideally at 8.10 am to get there , park and set myself up in the building. I'd really love to try and see if I can get this job, however the closing date is getting nearer and the application form is still sitting on my computer. Why ? Because of my kids !!
Dd1 is in yr 7 and is a nightmare in the mornings. Can't get up, takes bloody ages in bathroom then still comes out half dressed and with tatty hair.Makes a fuss every morning about various petty issues. Has had loads of time off already with coughs and colds, plays me up every week when it's PE or when she's got to go school if she's having a period. She's emotional and has frequent friendship issues which end up with the schools pastoral mentor sorting it out. Anyway she's told me if she has to go breakfast club before school, she's not going to school!!!
Dd2 is organised and bright in the mornings and nothing like her sister, but doesn't want to go breakfast club because she will be the only one in her class that goes, apart from a boy who she hates. Both girls have told me that they don't want anything to change. I think they've been lucky so far that they've had me around to do school runs, loads of kids go to wrap around care and they survive! We really could do with the extra money. Help
