As- let's just say I'm really a strong believer in the whole "keeping the customer happy" business. In this job I'm in, we work with the students directly, yes but the customers we really serve are the parents. We make sure we meet the students' need and provide the communication they need, and then communicate with the parents weekly or as often as necessary. I love the students I work with. This same student has been giving me a hard time in terms of waking her up in the mornings this week so I'd get her up and she'd go to bathroom. Then she goes straight back to bed where I find her "sleeping" again. I get her up again and go check on other girls. I come back and find her in bed yet again. By this point, I'm starting to crack and telling her that she's running out of time- it's 6:20 or whatever and we have to leave dorm by 6:50 to go get medicine (for a few who are on meds) and then straight to cafeteria. Well, this morning I changed it up. I got her up the first time, after the second time finding her in bed, I got her up and out of her room and locked the door. She couldn't go back to bed so what did she decide to do? She went into the bathroom and locked the stall door/sitting on the floor. It's one of those types of bathroom you'd see in public. So of course I can see her sitting there on the floor with her back to the door... One other student poked her and tried to get her to move (unlocked the stall door too) but with her in the way, I couldn't open it so what did I do? I grab the water spray bottle (for hair) and sprayed her with water. That got her to move enough that I could push the stall door open a little. silly girl. The student who poked her was cracking up at me for the things I was doing. I was just trying to encourage her to get dressed for school. While this is all going on, I have this other student hiding under the bench in the bathroom not too far from me. She's not getting her shoes on so she played this game of "keeping my feet away from you". Well, I had a fun morning getting them all ready today. It's a fun job sometimes... Not when it gets stressful but it can be fun at times...

 

[asibling4gi04]

OMG DG, I AM CRACKING UP HERE..I ENTIRELY VISUALIZED YOUR MORNING ANTICS! I GIVE YOU SOOO MUCH CREDIT. SOUNDS LIKE A CMEDY SHOW! SO LET ME ASK AGAN, ARE THESE COLLEGE STUDENTS?? OR SPECIAL NEEDS STUDENTS WHO RESIDE ON CAMPUS??

 

[30mummyof1]

Yes i'll keep you all updated!

 

[deafgal01]

Special needs/deaf students who reside on campus (the age group I work with are 3 years old to 11 years old - so elementary age group).

 

[asibling4gi04]

awe dg, how wonderful . You are prob so perfect for those girls! You are special my dear! Big hugs to you!

 

[deafgal01]

Well, I too used to live in a dorm like these girls- I started when I was 7 so I know the feeling. I can definitely relate to them on feeling homesick and all that so I do my best to cheer them up whenever they need it. I tell them they're dorm sisters all the time. It's true, they act like it. They fight like sisters, they love like sisters. I do have to make it fun every morning in order for the mornings to be smooth/easy on the girls. There's some mornings where I'll take the sheets off the bed but with the student still on the bed, I can't take the sheets away to be "washed" so I just twist and turn the sheets off the bed until I got her feet on the floor and then I leave her like that with her feet touching the floor and her belly/top half of body still laying on the bed. It's a funny sight.

 

[asibling4gi04]

dg you are a tough cookie..I wont be comeing out there to find you any time soon! I can really see you doing all of that!! i LOVE IT..Those are some lucky girls!

 

[deafgal01]

[KendraNoell]

[MrsMM24]

KENDRA I'm chanting the chant that JODI created for you and Jackson!!! Commmmmeeeee on Jackson!!!

Hi ladies :wave: Just wanted to stop in and check things out in here. I am still in the TWW, which seems like with the HSG and all the timing issues, that it has been the longest TWW ever!! Well... my temp is still elevated, AF is likely due this weekend. Not sure how my cycle will rebound after the last MC so we shall see. I am feeling fine, all the moving, and working, and organizing, I am not only so busy that I haven't been regularly on BnB, but also not thinking much of SS... FXD for myself and everyone through this weekend, I will see you back on Monday!! I'm updating my journal... I looove how things are progressing in this thread!!!

 

[MrsPTTC]

Wow girls the thread has been busy!

AS you are such a hoot, you've had me laughing about 'Lilly' . We have ginger snaps in the UK too, that's what I would call ginger biscuits (30 not sure if its a North East thing?!) Hope your MS subsides soon.

Pmsl at DG with your squirty bottle! Nice one

Mrsmm we are cycle buddies, my AF is also due this weekend. I think you will get a BFP! Glad your house move has kept your mind off the 2ww. I wish I could say the same for myself. I'm sooo glad I'm not charting at all next month. I think I've had enough . I feel so stressed one week out of four, its just not good. Since my spotting started (which has subsided but still there a tiny bit) its all I've been able to think about Part of me isn't bothered if AF does come cos of my holiday but then I have this little voice shouting for a BFP! God i sound crazy!

Rach, about Thomas' nursery place, bless, must be hard.

I'm babysitting a 14 month old tomorrow 8-5.30, wish me luck lol! Happy weekend everyone xx

I have had the worst day ever found out that my husbands unemployment benefits ran out on Tuesday even though he was told that he would be getting unemployment until he finished college, well since the federal government says the unemployment rate has gone down far enough (where?) they cut extra funding to the states so a bunch of people got cut off. On top of that the school that my husband is at forgot to submit to the Veterans Affairs that he was in school so we didn't get paid for that this month either, and I started leave from work today, which means zero dollars of income this month, and a baby due any second. I have been crying all day and not feeling well at all, went and applied for DSHS and emergency medical/cash and whatnot because the rent isn't paid, my health insurance isn't paid, and to top it off instead of being home and consoling me and helping me out trying to figure out what we're going to do my husband is off with his biker buddies and is apparently going to a big biker meeting tomorrow too and won't be home then either. I just feel so alone right now and such a failure.

 

[MrsPTTC]

Massive Kendra how awful So sorry hun, do you think you'll have a good chance of getting DSHS? (assume that's some kind of unemployment benefit?) I mean, they have to give you something, right?? x

 

[MrsPTTC]

Oh & as for DH

 

[30mummyof1]

omg Kendra, what a dick your dh is being. He needs to help get everything sorted for you or even with you would be better than ignoring it.
Hope you can get everything sorted sharpish, try and stay calm i know its hard but you don't want to get baby distressed even though you are close to the end> sending big

 

[30mummyof1]

I have heard of ginger snaps but i thought they were just a brand of ginger biscuits! so yes might be a more common term up north!

mrs p, fx for some brilliant news before your hols
Goodluck with your baby sitting, i think 14mths is a pretty good age, after the baby stage but before the terrible two's!

As for me, pretty laid back weekend, oh out drinking tonight with the lads, so i'm hoping to watch at least one girlie film plus BGT, if i can get them out the door before 10!! I've given up on the voice..i just can't get into it!

Plus spoke to my friend last night who is going through ivf..her dh is now giving her the daily injections, which she is coping well with. This is very good for her as she faints normally just giving blood, total needle phobia bless her. She has the op on the 15th then testing on 29th, so excited yet nervous for her. FX

 

[30mummyof1]

Happy 1 month to baby Poppy, Claire and happy 8 wks AS

Where is everyone today?!!

 

[deafgal01]

30- I was sleeping.

Kendra Sounds like you really need a friend there in person right now. I wish I was able to come right over and hang out to help you forget the worries you have right now. to your DH for leaving you all alone like that to hang with his biker buddies. It'd serve him right to miss baby's birth cuz he wasn't with you this weekend.
