Remember when I said recently that I needed a change in my routine? Welp, I got it lol. As some of you may remember, my Mom and I used to babysit my best friend’s almost four-year-old son. She put him in daycare to get him around more kids his age, but it didn’t work out (it’s not my place to share why), so she asked if we could start watching him again (until he starts actual school). We started today, which is the reason why I said I needed to go to bed and get up at a more decent time. I know it’s going to get stressful at times. There are times where I may already be swamped with work, or he may get sassy as kids do, and it’s going to take my body a bit to get used to a different schedule… but I’m choosing to look at the brighter spots. - He loves us, and we love him. He enjoys coming here and we watched him for so long, we know what he does and doesn’t like, etc. - It puts me back on a routine. He plays in the living room and I work in the living room, so I CAN manage to get in shorter orders while he’s playing or watching TV. I just need to STICK to a routine once he does start school. - I’m not even going to lie, I could use the extra money right now. So yeah, this could be the change in my routine I’ve needed (even if this “change” is really going back into the routine I had last year). If I stick to my routine once he starts school, then maybe I won’t wind up in a slump again. Alrighty, it’s back to work I go! I’m not staying up super late tonight, plus it’s cash-out night on Textbroker. I’ll catch you all later. Photo Credit: Pixabay.

Thank you! We've watched him before, so I know it'll be okay. :) Textbroker is a freelance writing website. It's where I earn most of my income.

Yay, I'm glad you get to watch him again, as now you have more time with him and cna be a bigger part of his life. Yes it can be tough at times, buy also rewarding as you get that time with him and he can learn from you.

Aw thanks! Yep, I mean, I still saw him when we'd hang out, but it's like our little bond will become stronger again. :)

Sometimes this regularity is just what we need to work on our freelance stuff consistently. Having a job of some sort, where you have to keep regular hours can be a blessing.

Right, and babysitting does keep me on a routine, which may be what I've needed since we stopped babysitting last year. I just need to stick with the routine once he does start school.

I hope you do it! It looks like some of my work won't be accepted on time, so it'll go towards next week's pay.

I imagine that babysitting like that is a well paid work there. I babysit my grandchildren for nothing.
