Thanks, stacia. That is a great site, too. I was not expecting such awesome ideas. Thanks to everybody!

I have to admit, there was never really a question whether I WOULD do it, just if I COULD do it both with time/vacation and stamina!

Like I said, this is a REALLY good friend. We do WW together, work out together 3-4 times a week, talk to each other at least once every other day, our families spend time together, we do moms days/nights out together etc. I really do like her children. Her dd is a pain right now, but she is going through a ton of stuff with Mommy back at work so I think I can understand her. I just can't take that much money from her because she is who I call if I need somebody to watch my kids - grant not for that long, but she has before, too.

It's such a short period of time...I would do it for free. I couldn't take money from a friend for a situation like that, but that's me.

That was my first thought, too, but she is pretty insistent on paying me since she was going to pay the other person. I just can't take $80 a day. That seems silly. So, it will probably be $25 a day. That way she feels good about paying and I feel good about not robbing her blind.

Then we might go get pedicures together with the money.
