I have a lot of work to do, but no childcare (school is off). Not sure how I'm gonna swing it.
Do you have work tomorrow?

Nope, I had to call out two days in the last two weeks because we had two really bad snow storms and I was waiting on my paycheck to be able to buy new tires and I physically couldn't get out of my town to get to work. Coworkers covered for me, all was fine. But apparently my manager decided that there's a new policy where if you call off x amount of days, then they cut you x amount of days the next week. So not only did I lose 16 paid hours last week, I lose another 16 paid hours this week. When you factor in that I only work 24 hours a week, that's a really hard blow for me.
So yeah, I pretty much have the entire week off. Sorry for the rant, I'm pretty livid. Thank goodness I have some interviews lined up this week!
I hope your able to get some work done with the LOs off!

D does. Really sucks because he's been off since the 21st and will be off all of this week except for tomorrow.

Yes and no. We are on the winter break for 5 weeks (4 left) so no going to work. But I have to prep for next semester. I also am babysitting my friends baby for this week because she doesn't have child care.

Yes. End of the year is really busy for me and I am feeling SUPER unprepared for the next few days. I hate work stress...

Yes! Stayed up late to watch my Eagles and now LO is awake so I am nursing. Not sure how I am going to wake up tomorrow!

I do and am not looking forward to it. Fortunately I do have daycare available. I should be in bed as 4:30 am comes early. But dreading tomorrow I am even putting off going to bed. Ugh!

DH and I both have work Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, plus I may go in for a few hours on Saturday. Our daycare is closed Tuesday and Wednesday, so DH arranged for a friend to watch A while he works. If he hadn't been able to arrange care, he would have taken the day off.

Yes, end of year is the busiest time for me too! DD's school isn't closed tomorrow, but it is on Tuesday - neither me or DH has the day off, but luckily DH WFH on Tuesdays so he said he could swing managing her and work at the same time.

Ugh, yup, Monday, 1/2 Tuesday, and Thursday and Friday. Tomorrow's going to be a beast of a day, too (as I sit up at 1:30 prepping things for tomorrow, ugh!). Lucky DH only has to go back on Thursday, and I'm so jealous. Good luck to all of us worker bees tomorrow!

Yep. Here today, tomorrow and Thursday and Friday. To be honest, I am ready for normalcy again. I feel bad for M who is all off her schedule. The girl LIVES by her schedule.
