I go back to work 3rd Feb, I've had my letter to sign and send back to work.
BUT, I cant get childcare .......current nursery LO goes to cannot take the baby till the start of April, and can only take DD 2 days a week........I HAVE to go back 36 hours a week - so 4 full days and one half - but really for child care will be 5 full days.
I was looking at a nanny, but OH says no as he does not want to be paying for the child care then of course the extra oil and electric etc on top of the £10 odd an hour(I see his point kinda as its only £3.50 pr hour at nursery!)
I've contacted EVERY nursery local and only ONE had gotten back to me.......i've called to be told to email, so I email then no bloody reply .........The one that did reply sent me enrolement forms but mentioned nothing about availability so I asked them and they cant do it!
There is just one nursery I have not tried, but the problem there is that i would be driving 7 miles further away from work....and in snow it would be impossible to get to and then to work (country roads unless I take the 20 mile round the main roads)
If I dont go back we are -£300 a month........I have to go back........I vent even afford to take unpaid leave and MIL is not an option as she gets a replacement knee on the 15th January!
Im so stressed i've consumed more alcohol in the last 3 days than I have the whole of last year , and ive got to fork out for my sisters hen dos, and then my dress for that as well..............im freaking out...
