Thank you everyone. This family makes me feel so deflated. I keep them because she works at home, there's never a battle if I close for a day, she's always paid (some times a day late, but it always comes) they boys are a bit of a pain, but I'm used to them now. I just want to coast for a while. I have a decent crew, everyone knows each other, he sleeps really well... I don't want to start someone new.

I think I have scared her good this time. She sent me a text last night telling me how fabulous I am and she was truley sorry blah blah blah. She really doesn't have another option without me which gives me a bit of a sense of power over the situation. I have a thousand reasons to terminate this family but I'm just going to ride it out. The older is leaving me for school in the fall and I'll just be down to one.

I really need some time off, I'm starting to feel a little on the burnt out side. Good thing I have a light summer and a week of just a few weeks away.
