I was supposed to work today, but the director called five minutes or so ago, and said they're not going to need me because the amount of children there is so low. Like she said, it's probably because so many of the children's older siblings are out of school, and so they just kept their preschoolers home too. She reminded me that they're going to be needing me April First, and that they'll need me more after that, too. She also said that there was a check their for me from the last time I worked, and that one of the ladies that lives near me will bring it by. While I'm bummed that I won't be earning the money, I'm glad that I worn't get as worn out as I was anticipating.
Since I'm not working, Mom wants me to go with her to her doctor appointment. It's to check her bladder for any signs of cancer, since she had kidney cancer a couple of years ago. She wants me there for "moral suppoort". She said she wants to go to the fabric store while we're in the town where she sees the doctor, too.
Hope your day/etc. is going well.

Hope all goes well with your mother's doctor appointment, and I'm glad you get to have an unexpected break! My day has been pretty short (considering I just woke up like 5 minutes ago), but I hope to be productive today.

We won't hear the results for a few days to a week, @Sei_Ryoku . I hope all is good, too. I hope that your day has been productive since I read this.

Glad to read that your day is going well, @Hatley! :) I hope that it continues to do so. I'm feeling a bit worn out this afternoon; I'm guessing that I'll be going to bed early tonight.

Sucks you are losing money but i wouldn't want to go in if there's not going to be many kids either. Hope your mom's appointment goes well, have a good one

Well, it will give me a bit more time to work on the home business that I'm trying to start (and I just got some advice today about changing something else).
