Currently, I babysit three kids, 2, 4 &5. It's only for a few hours, four days a week and I get paid 30/hr.

Pretty soon, the oldest will be in school. So I'll just be with the 3 and 4 year old. Which is 25/hr.

A neighbor just moved in next to their house, and asked about their kid (age 3) coming over a couple times a week, basically asked if I'm up for babysitting this kid, too. Joining the group.

I said yes, of course. But they're asked what I want to charge. I have no idea.

We were doing a re-watch and my husband pointed out that Matty (IT) was with the kids in the sewer, then IT also appeared to the soldiers in the sewer as different things at the same time. He asked me if that can happen or if it was a goof, and I just wasn't sure.

The family I nanny for has two outdoor cats (I know that is controversial, but I'm not debating that here, my job is taking care of the kids).

Now and then, the cats will leave a mouse or bird on the doorstep. Last week, it was a bat. I told the dad and he kind of laughed it off saying that he has found a couple other dead bats that the cats caught.

Who here knows about bats and what are the chances of rabies infections? Also the cats typically stay away, on their own on the property except rare occasions they want some pets or treats. I've never seen them rough play, claw, bite with the kids.

Do the bats have to bite the cat to give rabies? Or can the cats get it from *them* biting the bat?

I set up PP to buy something, the seller only accepts PP and a couple other methods I didn't have. So, I set it up and it seemed to be good to go. Added my debit card.

Person gave me their user name to send payment. Tried to send it, and it said there was a "problem, try again". So I did. Repeat a few times. I have internet deadzones in my house, so I was moving around trying to send multiple times.

Checked to make sure my card was correct, and everything. Tried again. Still didn't work. So, the person tried requesting the payment instead. I got the notification, and it still didn't let me send it.

I decided to try and add money myself to my PP account and pay that way. But the "add money" option was not even there, and no way to do that.

Tried to log into my PP account on my tablet just to see if the app was different. And now my account is locked because "someone created an account with the same name". Wtf. I've literally had PP for like five minutes.

Feeling a little freaked out, I checked my bank account and there's 10 pending payments for the amount I was trying to send. But they're not showing up on the PP account activity??

So I'm assuming these payments are going to go through tomorrow morning, being Monday. Should I just go straight to my bank? Dispute through PP? Even if the seller tried to give money back, my account is locked .... so now idk what to do.

In other words, I did a 20 minute intense quad workout on Friday. Felt fine yesterday. Today, my legs are so sore!

Is that normal? Why didn't I hurt yesterday? And how do you navigate being so sore but not wanting to miss workouts?
