Staff Room : All Clear Sirn Goes Off.

Can I join you all today

I am losing my childminding mojo a bit..........

I have loads of choccie cake as every one around me is on a pre xmas diet

Hello everyone.

sorry some of you are having bad mornings.

Number4 - that toybox situation is gross I hate cleaningup sick. I agree with other posters that he i more than old enough to know better, my DS mastered aiming for clear laminate or the loo aged 3, it's not hard, and it does sound like he did it deliberately!! You have my sympathies.

waiting for mindee to arrive, and having a cuppa

Yes I am here ignoring all my house work, paper work and getting the tea sorted as I want to warm up after the school run.

I still have no mindees yet on thursday or friday but have another PP comming to visit tomorrow morning. It would be nice if someone would just let me know if they want to start in January.

Hi all can we help someone in Bolton? here

(notes the time, and checks on who is ignoring their mindees)

Morning you lot! Just popping in to say hello. I am pretty excited, I posted advertising for January for my ONE place but I am really looking forward to starting again.

Morning everyone.

I was reading that thread last night but didn't reply as I might not have stopped!

Anyway who took my lovely sunshine? Back to horrible grey skies again .

Off to take DD to school will be back to help tidy up.

Shoshe, mum does know. might even add that she panders to it? if mindee gets very upset and tantrummy (elastic use of language!) he can very easily be sick. even make himself sick. today he and DS were playing around being silly and cute and laughing etc. i should have known and made them sit still. it crossed my mind but i thought again that it was harmless fun.

mumsanutter: hope your kids get better soon.

sorry it is all me me me me again this am.

off to fix the hair and face.

No 4, so sorry to hear about the toy box - I take it that he didn't want to play with any of them today??

He should of listened though, even my 3 year old knows that if he is going to be sick to try to get to the downstairs toilet! Doesn't usually get there but at least hes away from the toys and over easy to clean flooring!

I agree with shoshe that you should talk to the parents.

Mumsanutter donnes (?spelling) a jumper and coat before venturing outside - oh there is a bit of a mess.

Better tidy it up and make safe before the little ones arrive, black bin bags, vinyl gloves (mums allergic to latex), and start cleaning. Any bits of Marla are arranged nicely (hopefully correctly - apologies if anythings in the wrong place!), here comes the upva glue and sticky back plastic - lets hope that that holds!!! Mums wonders around making sure that everything is back to normal - why are there always so many wine bottles left after a gathering

Mums wanders (into wandering tday!) and has a nice strong coffee to warm up.

Insomnia is not nice, I'm not sleeping particularly well myself, dh away, dc ill and mums found a lump in her breast and is waiting for a hosp appt, so thats playing on my mind as well!!!

morning

dont mind me. grumpiness has set in. 5 year old mindee just vomited in my toy box. knowing he was going to be sick, he went behind the curtain, leaned over the toy box and let rip. not sickness, just playing around too much and his breakfast came up. did i mention it was all over the toys?

when he started, i said go to the kitchen. told him twice. he does have a sensitive stomach and this happens fairly often so he should know? or am i expecting too much of him?

he walked past me, hid behind the curtain. do you know where he landed up being sick. in the toy box. full toy box.

Shoshe, I can't spell at any time of the day but 5.44 is fine to make a few spelling mistakes.

Coffee thanks - yet another bad night. The antibiotics are kicking in for ds3 so he actually got some sleep, but ds4, he was up and down all night like a yoyo (I was downstairs at 2.30 this am looking at mumsnet!!)

No work today, so another day to look after my beautiful (ill) children, and maybe catch a nap with them

Do you want me to do any work in the staffroom????? Mumsanutter wanders around aimlessly....
