Workin'. I'm beyond tired today. Having a hard time keeping my eyes open. May stop for a pedicure on the way home. I refused to take money from Betsy for babysitting, so she insisted on getting me a gift card. I'll take it!

Hope everyone has a good day. Keep cool in this heat!

Jen One of my friends moms tricked her niece with the babysitting money. She put out a bucket and told her to make a donation then right before thanksgiving handed her the bucket back wrapped with xmas paper. in the card she said something about her being the saving club or something. She had enough in there to do her shopping for the kids and the meal. Course she was mad at first that the friend didn't get anything for herself all that time with the money but she told her her gift was every hug and kiss she'd gotten and knowing that the kids were happy.

I'm done to the last batch of cut up beans THANK god. I'm really sick and tired of seeing them. Since there isn't time to do another batch between this one and the time I have to leave it feels like a vacation that's sad.

It's already so sticky out I feel like i need another shower after standing out for the reading program for an hour.

She fought me and fought me on it. She finally gave in and said "where do you get your nails done?" I told her and that was fine. I had told her if she gave me checks, I would rip them up and mail them back to her, and if she gave me cash, I was going to put it in the kids' piggy banks. There's not a lot I can do for her, but if I can make her feel comfortable for the day knowing the kids are fed and happy, that's all the payment I need.
