Can't you put the kibosh on her, Sparky? She sounds like she would be most unpleasant to deal with and will probably not understand the "share" part of the nanny share.
Oh, I wish those council guys would let me have an hour alone in the room with her, if I was larger and had grenades.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I don't feel like I can do that, yet. She's coming to us via an alum of the share, and so the nanny knows and likes her. I don't really feel I have enough ammunition to mess with the nanny's livelihood at this point (we each have a contract w/ her, we don't split her cost 3 ways), but I have spoken with the nanny about how important it is that I meet her because she'll be coming into my home every day, and the nanny was completely on board. They haven't signed a contract, yet.
As my DH will tell you, I hold a grudge, so a bad first impression is tough for me to get over.

Wow! I hope he has a wonderful birthday.

Now tagless for your comfort.
My sister and I are headed to Southern IN for a funeral. A friend's mother died suddenly this week. She's an only child and grandchild. We're going to provide some emotional support.
A member of my moms group just had her baby. She named him Dean Jensen. I think that name would be appreciated.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

That's absolutely hysterical. I needed a laugh.
My head hurts so badly I want to hurl and cry. I can't believe it's a 4 day week and I am this badly off at the end of it. I need to call in working from home.

I had a baby Juniper born this week among my acquaintance; big sister Vivian. I also met a young man (a coffee shop server wearing a name tag) named Amirail today (with an umlaut over the second a. It's pronounced Ameer-a-eel, and is Arabic, according to him.
I can't think about babies right now without thinking of Jessica, though. I hope she is okay.
