So frustrated, four days before work

Hi ladies! I'm still a SAHM so I'm not gone just yet and I needed to release some anger. I go back to work on Monday. Today and tomorrow my nanny was supposed to come by for a few hours so that her and Noah could get to know each other before they are left alone together. It would also give me a chance to see them interact and feel more secure in my decision. Well today she called me and told me that her husband hurt his back and she would rather stay home and "baby" him. I asked her about tomorrow and she said she didn't know if she could make it then either.


So now I've decided that I can't deal with this unsurity. I'm counting on this person, you know? I need to feel comfortable knowing that Noah is left with someone I can trust and in my gut I know it is not her. So I'm going back through my notes and trying to decide who else I can call because I already called them all and told them I hired someone else. Ugh!!!! And not to mention, my phone line went out. I don't know what the deal is but I've been on the phone with the phone company, they have no idea what is going on so they are sending out a tech but it could be today or tomorrow. Our cell phones get horrible service where we live so I'm just frazzled.


I did call one lady I interviewed and left a message for her but I haven't heard back yet. If I don't hear from her by this evening I'm going to have to call someone else. This is the last stretch before the gate. I have to do something now. I'm starting to wonder if this is a sign.


Take care everyone,

That really stinks.

I do agree with you on the lasy and not feeling you could depend on her. Seems she is not too interested in the job if that keeps her from coming and doing the job now.

I hope you find someone you can count on and trust real soon.

"I'm starting to wonder if this is a sign."

well if it doesn't work out and you stay home, I don't think any of *us* would mind b/c you could stick around here LOL

ok seriously... I would find someone else too. She doesn't sound very dependable. If he was hurt very badly, then it would be different.
Hopefully you will get your phones fixed soon too.

Thanks for checking in with us Tarra! (((HUGS)))

First of glad to see you posting Tarra! You defiantly don't want to be dealing with someone who can't even come through for you before she is even suppose to start!
