It's not like I hadn't been considering the idea myself because of hints being dropped and my mom's health not holding steady. MIL called me this morning on my way to the office to say she really needs to work at least 2 days during the week and can we consider putting Stef in part time daycare, maybe with a church group or something. The thing is, we only pay $10/day right now. I called one daycare that accepts drop-ins: $60/day (plus a $75 application fee). Holy sheep shit! I'm sure the pricing would be different for fulltime or parttime care, but it just gripes me to no end.
After all the fussing and fighting and crying and cojoling she did to get to be THE babysitter, now she keeps backing out on us. First it was Fridays that she isn't keeping Stef. Now she wants another day. I can understand needing to work more, but Sith Spawn!
Of course it's left to me to do all the leg work and research and calling around and budget re-configuring. Something is going to have to go. Maybe more than one something. (I'm not talking about the dogs here)
Maybe I'll call the mortgage lady and see about re-financing or getting a 2nd. Maybe my head will just explode and I'll feel better then.
Sunovahutt!

Hmmmm, maybe it won't pay to work and you can finally be a SAHM. Need to do some math on work expenses. See were that leaves you.
Holy sheep shit is right that much money eh wow, I'm so lucky to have nana I guess, 20 / bux a day sometimes even leaves me strapped at just a hundred a week. I cannot imagine paying that much it surely wouldn't be worth it for me to work that's a givin. Good luck hopefully you'll figure it out and soon, hugs.
Terri, I agree with Linda. I hope you can find something that will work for you. Have you checked into an in home provider? HUGS!!!!
