Oh Happy Day!

(If this shows up on google reader....this is a post back from '08 that never got posted. Just ignore it.)

I don't know what's gotten into me with all this blog posting. It must be the fact that I'm out of the super tired phase of pregnancy. Anywho...

I just had to quickly say that little Miss 24 hr Fitness Maria got her little booty bumped to only working Monday and Wednesday nights!


I found out yesterday when I decided to go back one last time to talk to the asst. manager. I'd really been struggling with what really was the right thing to do. I didn't want to just keep going after them for my own personal prideful reasons, but I also wasn't positive that just letting the whole thing go was the right thing to do either. I wanted to be as calm and peaceful about it as I could, but I also didn't think that letting them get away with treating children (especially my own) like that was the right way either.

So...back to approaching the asst. manager. I pulled him aside and told him very nicely that I was a little frustrated that I was never contacted and felt as though I wasn't taken very seriously. That's when he told me she was only working Monday and Wednesday nights now. I asked if that was just random or if it had something to do with my situation. He told me that it had everything to do with my situation and that was the decision they came to and what they thought was for the best.

I'm thrilled and I think it's the perfect solution! I only work-out in the mornings so I won't ever have to come across her babysitting Reese again. I'm just thrilled that it was important enough to them to finally do something about it. (By the way, Reese was happy as a clam when I picked her up from Kids' Club. What a difference a loving babysitter makes.)

Now I can officially let it go. Hallelujah!

Thanks for all your advice. And I hope that all this gym talk hasn't given anybody the false impression that I'm going to look all fit and trim in pictures. I've been eating better and exercising during this pregnancy, but so far I've gained exactly what I gained at this stage while pregnant with Reese. And with her, I ate whatever I wanted and never exercised. Oh well, I feel better at least.
