THURSDAY AUGUST 30 2007!!!

I got told off by one of my clients!!

Earlier in the week  my supervisor reminded me to ask a certain family not to bring in baked goods for their child's last day which was to be FRIDAY, I did what I was told to do. Well, this afternoon when the child's mom came to pick her daughters up she came right up to me and asked why I told her husband what I did. I explained to her that we have a child with life threatening allergies and it is our current policy that no one bring baked goods to our child care in case it has been contaminated with nuts. Well, she flipped out on me and said whatever and walked out. Ten minutes later she came back to say that her daughter will not be coming in for the last day. I said that's fine as calmly as possible.

Later on my migraine headache returned and I found myself disoriented at the mall. This was because I was upset over what had happened. Later I was worried about what my boss would say when I  came in to work tomorrow!!!

FRIDAY AUGUST 31 2007

I am worried about what my boss will say when I come into work today. I also have a  errand to run before work and hope I can get to work on time. Well, I was very friendly at the mall today, I actually surprised myself!!! My boss was okay about what had happened. I had left her a message about it on the machine, I think that helped, and this particular parent has a bad reputation in our childcare.

I was feeling a bit down coming home from work. I think it's because I had such a long and stressful week and  it was the last day for some of the children that I have taken care of so long. I did a lot of

allowing my feelings to come and examining them. I went to bed early.
