Stepping into 2014- walking in My Shoes with Mooloo

So what was Biggest's reaction to the "incident" ?

Her reaction was that I was over reacting.
It's just not my week.
After the school run, I went to deliver the 4 aprons that the cafe did agree to pay for.
However the boss wasn't there and so I didn't get my money.
While I was at the desk, I noticed the lady who had cancelled on me in there having a coffee with friends. Not happy.
She did come up to say that her crisis had gone away, but she hadn't wanted to mess me about, and said she'd see me Monday. Then walked back to her friends. I didn't get to say much, think I managed a smile before I left the cafe. (Not the place to cause a scene, etc).
But I really was annoyed.
So my morning plans all out of the window.
So I went to see my parents, had a cup. Of tea with them and come home.
Hoping to meet up with one of the Matrix ladies this afternoon.
I no longer needed to get DGD2, as they changed their plans and the other granny is doing it as she's going to her Dad this weekend.
They are going to Wales next weekend. I said I hope they weren't expecting me to change to get DGD as I have clients booked in. So they are warned they cannot expect me to change my plans.

I've assumed from this that it was the BF who gave you a lesson in etiquette. The very same bloke who informed you just a few weeks ago that he and Biggest were going to apply for custody of DGD? He sounds like a catch that should be thrown back.

No - it's not Biggest Mooloo's B/F who is after custody. Biggest is mum of DGD no 2. It's twin 1's BF that brought up the claim for custody idea some months ago!

Not wanting to be a party pooper but i take it you do have business insurance in case someone hurts themselves during your lessons or in your property?

Thanks, I clearly misunderstood, apols to to Mooloo and followers.

Frankly over reacting or not it might be a wake up call that you have limited energy and time (and petrol money) and with DS living there who can babysit save your babysitting for one offs rather than a regular thing.
It might teach her BF that manners cost nothing but petrol and babysitters do.

Yes I have insurance.

I think the problem is they are trying to teach their kids to say please and Thankyou. But he was being over the top about it. Anyway, I will be detaching myself from some of the duties required, as I get back on my feet and build my business.
I have had a meeting with one of the Matrix ladies today, and feel much better after a really long chat with her. Feeling much more motivated then I was. And I hope that I can push through, and come out the other side.
Twin1, DGDs Mum, was supposed to have her tonight for me, and tomorrow during the day when I do the sewing workshop, however she text this morning to say shed have her tomorrow. Then later she text asking me to take her shopping this afternoon! She got a no!
I'd already been to the town to see my parents, so going back again as soon as is got home was not going to happen. Even if she hadn't annoyed me. Nearly time to collect DGD from afterschool club. Then we can Barton down the hatches and snuggle up under the duvets etc what a wet and miserable day it is.
Onwards and upwards. Don't let the so and so's grind you down!!! Must remember that.

Afternoon. Last night Twin1 asked what time I was taking DGD to her today. I replied actually I am not. That DGD wanted to come sewing with me, and that she was upset at her Mum for telling me she was moving away infront of DGD, that she sent her home early last week, and didn't want her last night. She didn't reply. Expected an arguement but there was no response what so ever.
This morning DGD came with me, and she had her first go on the overlocker, and started to make a little book bag. So did another little girl aged about 10. she was happy with her little bag. But the shop was really empty, so there was no workshop as such. Never mind. Nothing ventured nothing gained. I did make a couple of bags for the Zimbabwe project.
I am really very tired. Wish I could just have a nap now!
The housework needs a good amount of attention. If only I could find a burst of energy!
