Day Shift, Mail, House Meeting, and Panera (aka Bread Co)

     Day Shift as always is really slow in the morning and crazy right before I leave. All I did today was childcare and correct a child when she acted rudely to her mother. I enjoyed childcare, because the children are great, but I'm still not all excited about paperwork. I'm excited to work second shift so someone else will do the paperwork :-).

Sunday and Monday

     Today is Monday and things seem to be going slow as always. I'm working the night shift today so I have all day to make phone calls, do laundry, and relax. I did the same thing yesterday too. I have spent most of the past two days in bed watching tv on hulu or in a big chair watching tv and movies. But once I went to work my laziness went away and I got right back into working. Today I went into work early so I would be able to take off an hour for dinner. When I arrived a class started and I had child care. It was fun working with the kids. The male volunteer from next door dropped by and helped out during child care. This was awesome, because it allowed us other  volunteers give more one on one attention to other children. I actually played catch with one of our boys. Since there are no tennis balls, or any type sport toys we used a ball of play dough in the play room. This is something I would never do in my own house or even at a place I would be babysitting at, but I felt sometimes you need to break common understandable rules to get a sense of a normal setting.
