    There are some days during which I wouldn't mind a little change, but for the most part, I find my days go by quite quickly and I really enjoy myself. I have good relationships with the parents who will often come in for a chat or a coffee at the end of the day. I have 1 mother who often joins me for a morning coffee at drop off as she has a flexible schedule. My neighbour joins the kids and I for our morning walk in the summer, which is quite nice. There's another provider who lives around the corner from me who brings her older kids to the park behind my house, so we chat by the fence. Most of my evenings are full socially with friends from the old neighbourhood, social activities with clients, boyfriend, what have you. We have regular activities (today was tie dying shirts) and don't seem to have much problem filling our hours at all. We seem to have a nice balance of scheduled activities. All in all, I find I'm rarely bored.If all else fails and I'm starved for adult company, I'll call my mum

    But during the early years....OMG!! I thought I'd go crazy!!! Any poor slob who came in to do repairs or maintenance on my home were subjected to a barrage of small talk as I almost begged anyone (ANYONE) who didn't require a bum change or nose wipe to talk to me. Ugh....the first few years were a little slice of hell in that regard.
