No Babysitting At All This Week - Please tell me I'm not the only one.

I am doing no babysitting at all this week.
Is it just the time of year do you think, or is this a trend that I'm going to see for a while?
Am I the only one finding that there is little babysitting work around?

I've dropped my price... not sure it will make a difference though - can but try.
