I dunno i will phone the doctors tomorrow and check when i had one last. i think i had one a very very long time ago! but i am not sure if i will need another better to be safe that sorry. i think the fence is older than me!

Yes better to be safe than sorry.

Are you working tomorrow Yukki? How do you manage with half term? Is dd1 old enough to look after herself?

yukkibear

Nope not working tomorrow. DD1 is 13 nearly 14 so yes she pretty much takes care of herself when I have to work now. Thankfully she's pretty sensible most of the time and I trust her.

What do you do with your dd in the holidays? I'm dreading that when dd2 is bigger and not at nursery anymore.

This week i have booked some holiday so i am just working monday and wens 9.30 till 2.30 and my mum is looking after her. in easter and the summer i will have to use holiday clubs and nurserys as well and using my holiday and getting any family to help it is a bit expensive!!

jenjade

I suppose it will balance out when your dd is not at nusery as she will be at school so that is free childcare from 9-3 ish! But then the holidays will be expensive although if you claim working family tax they will pay 70% of childcare so it shouldn't be to bad.

The problem i have is they spread the money over the year so i am using it for food, rent etc instead of saving it for the holidays
