Pet Peeve

I have a pet peeve. If someone tells me on Monday that I'll see them on Wednesday I spend Mon-Wed preparing to see them. I get the house ready and make sure the kids rooms are ready for their kids. Then I make sure I'm up at a decent time on Wednesday to receive their call for when they will be there. When Wednesday comes and they don't call or show, that's my pet peeve.

Do I assume that they have the flu or something else came up with friends or family. Some people you grow to expect "they are always late" or "they said Wednesday, maybe I'll see them next week." This person is usually like me and pretty schedule oriented, so I'm assuming the holidays have just been more flexible for them, understandable. I just hope when they do finally call that the kids rooms are ready for friends, because the wait is over!

I guess I should have written this yesterday while we were waiting for them because I wrote this, closed my laptop, put it down and the phone rang! They are on their way right now! Better late then never!

Well, the visit was short, but good. It was my boss and the children I babysit for. It was awesome seeing them! Right now it looks like I'll be released to go back to work on the 11th and she has coverage until then, but she said that she still needs me!

It's nice to not have to worry about that and it was great to see Charlie and Paige. Charlie has gotten taller already! I guess it has been since before Thanksgiving since I've seen him! They are great kids, I am looking forward to getting back to work!

I am so glad to hear that you still have a job! It's nice to be missed, isn't it?
