My advice to you would be to go to work and ask the cleaning lady if she would look after the poor little tike for the day. You could offer to give her a small bonus that is pennies on the dollar compared to what it costs for that, what did you call it? Sick day care?

What is that you say? You don't have a cleaning lady? Oh I'm sure my Rosa can provide you with a referral.

Oh you can't afford a cleaning lady?

Well then, my dear Another, my advice to you would be to suck it up, pay for that sick care thingy and go to work. You can't be left without the dignity of your work, Dearie.

Sincerly,
Anne Romney
