oh dear ... that seems to be going around (11th day of a sinus infection ... sigh).
Jayne (Husband): Oh, I think you might wanna reconsider that last part. See, I married me a powerful ugly creature. Mal (Wife): How can you say that? How can you shame me in front of new people? Jayne (Husband): If I could make you purtier, I would. Mal (Wife): You are not the man I met a year ago.

Kat, with two, you may be best off getting a nanny when needed because I think the cost would be about the same.

The solution - Buffista day care! since the toddlers are already working on their plans for world domination, let's get them ORGANIZED. (and make sure we get some of the goodies)

Plei, that's what I was wondering. I kind of want to put my head down and cry at the thought of all this.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
So what are people doing this weekend?

What is even happening?
Plei, that's what I was wondering. I kind of want to put my head down and cry at the thought of all this.
I think Plei has a good point about the nanny. Maybe you can start researching at the NICU, to see if the nurses/doctors know what other families have done? Also, maybe there's a parents-of-preemies group where you can make some contacts.
(Sometimes, crying helps. I'm just saying.)

Driving down to PA to see my Mom!
Which means I had a bunch of tasks to get in order today. Most importantly, I cleaned off my home office desk, or at least got it organized into more-or-less orderly piles. Which I'm not sneering at.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
So what are people doing this weekend?
Job hunting. I'm getting a little panicky. I'm almost done student teaching and have very few good prospects. I've got my resume out to a crapload of districts, but so far not much response. ACK! I need a JOB!
