[Bathsheba]

Good afternoon girls Just back from collecting Wade from Kinder....had a great morning! But first:

Jess: That's a very interesting email isn't it?! I've read it before and was amazed to see that I could read it so easily!

Tali: don't worry about your spelling... it's so common with left handed people... my Dad and Sis (rosehannah) are both left handed and have trouble spelling but they aren't stupid! I'm not perfect myself but ever since I downloaded Mozilla's FireFox browser (which has an inbuilt spell checker that even corrects what I type here in BB) I don't have to worry too much. Maybe try to get a hold of that... but it doesn't really matter that much... i understand your posts perfectly

Nic: Good to hear you have followed up with your doula, I'm sure you will receive that second lot of money too. What a shame she let you down... she doesn't seem to think that by treating you so unprofessionally that she is letting down her whole profession News of bad service spreads like wildfire! I'm so sorry you had a bad experience but try not to be too jaded, I guess there are good and bad in all professions but we always get hurt most when it's people who work in the "caring" professions that let us down hey? Hope lil Ty doesn't catch Nixon's bug!

Arrggggh! in the space of typing the above I have had to get up 4 times and close the bloody side gate that Wade keeps leaving OPEN! I'm gonna bolt the thing SHUT if he does it again! He...just....doesn't...get ...it! he has also broken the front gate by standing on it so I can't rely on that to keep Niall in either.... oh this place is falling to bits! *deep breaths* But there is light at the end of the tunnel because as of next Wednesday I HAVE A MOTHER'S ASSISTANT!!! Finally, this morning Dial-An-Angel rang and said that one of their girls has just become available but only on Wednesdays at this stage (which is ok, just want 1 day a week at this stage until I suss out if she's good. She has been a fulltime nanny but wants to return to study (nursing) and she also rang this morning and we had a chat... she sounds nice and very sensible Oh and she lives really close and is happy to do evening babysits as well. She has been police checked too and is one of 7 children herself so our chaos won't phase her she said. She'll be staying until 6pm when DH gets home too so that's the witching hour covered. I really hope this works out... I get a good vibe from her on the phone anyhow. Here's finger's crossed she fits in here well!

Back later.... Niall's fallen asleep in my arms while feeding, better put him down....
