I have a day off today and am sitting here, chatting about childminding! I do love my job, but maybe I need to get out more ;)

What do you do on your days off?

I am sad too
I spend days off doing paperwork, traiing and planning, or even shopping for mindees. I never seem to switch off from cm mode!

Me neither Sammy - always searching for new resources, activity ideas etc.! hehe

Yeah, there is always the paperwork to do...

I just clean, although at the moment the only days off are saturday and sunday!

I even lie in bed at night thinking I must do letter about X to so and so, need to do fire drill on Tuesday because mindee AB is only here on that day, should have bought some wipes because mindee Z used the last to wipe up whatever, wonder if I am the only CM thinking about work at night, is it good practice to have sickness cover or can I tell that mindee's mum where to go, etc etc etc.

You could make a list of christmas presents for your mindees and plan them a christmas party ......

All pressies for Christmas are bought and parties are organised (3 of them!)! Hubby's are even wrapped already, he is frightfully nosy!
