Just a Brief Vent

I think I've mentioned that I've had other people's kids here everyday this week. I'm trying to find a baby sitter for my baby tonight, so I don't have to bring her to Ave's recital. Ya' think I could find one??? OF COURSE NOT. 3 hours, only 1 baby, no takers. Grrr. I called my mom last week, and she was asking about the time of the dance tonight, like she was clearing her schedule, and then I told her that I hadn't invited any family b/c I didn't think Avery was going to do it, and she says 'oh, ok then.' Then I asked her instead of coming, do you think you could watch J for me, and she says 'um... no, I don't think I can. I might have plans' BAH. Bull crap. So I called my gf, I've had her kids 3 times in the last 2 weeks, and on very short notice. She has nothing going on tonight, but she said' ummm.. I dunno. I'm kind of burnt out, but I'd like to help, but I don't know if it will work." Well hell. You'd think I was asking for a kidney donation. So, I'm done. I am longer willing to watch ANYBODY else's kid/s EVER again. I don't mind helping out my friends when they have something going, but not if they are not willing to return the favor. I never let anyone pay me for babysitting. All I ask is that someday the favor be returned. And it isn't, ever. Screw it, I'm busy through the end of the year.
