    Author Notes:

    Unbeknownst to Bette, Tina’s search for a nanny continues… with a little help from a friend.

    “It’s not that I’m excluding her, Alice,” Tina said hastily, keeping the subject on herself and hoping to beat out the spark before it could flame up into an argument between Alice and Jenny.  “I just want to get everything in order before I speak to her about it. I have two prospects that I know she’ll like and I have more interviews lined up this afternoon. I think once she sees how terrific these girls are, it’ll help her accept the idea.”

    “Right,” Helena agreed. “Besides, it’s not like you’re hiring Angus. That is something she could reasonably object to.”

    Alice and Jenny heartily agreed for the first time that morning, with Jenny pausing to curse “all cheaters” with a sly look at Alice.

    “So, you guys!” Tina broke in impulsively, once again trying to draw attention from Jenny’s barbs at Alice to herself. “Who wants to sit in with me and help me screen the interviewees?”

    Jenny and Alice immediately made work excuses and Tina smirked. They had their differences, but when it came to begging off a dreary obligation to a friend, Jenny and Alice were one and the same. It didn’t matter; Tina didn’t really want them with her anyway.

    “I’ll come along, Tina,” Helena offered. “I’ve had plenty of experience with nannies. I’ve hired several of them and I was practically raised by one, in the fine British tradition,” Helena said conspiratorially. “I’d be happy to help you.”

    “Great!” Tina said, but a thought occurred to her out of nowhere. If Bette found out that Helena had helped out in this process at all, she may get jealous or put up even more resistance to it, especially after her behavior this morning. Tina decided she needed to kibosh this ASAP.

    “Actually, Helena-“ Tina began, but she was interrupted by Alice checking her watch with a squawk and leaping up from her chair.

    “Shit, I’m going to be late!” Alice gave Tina a clumsy hug and told her to not be such a stranger before scampering out the door.

    Jenny stood up too and kissed both of Tina’s cheeks in typical over-the-top Jenny fashion. She tossed her silky hair and told Tina to give her a call so they could lunch sometime.

    5. So happy tht Tina finally talked with Bette as she should have done ages ago regarding the nanny. I wonder if Bette is really just afraid that someone might not be good to the children or did she have a bad experience with a nanny as a child? Interesting. But at least they have come to an understanding of it and know they can not do it all, it’s impossible. It’s not like they can not afford to hire a nanny. Another thing that bothers me about this pregnancy is tht Tina is “tired” so early in this pregnancy. Are vitamins in order or something else that keeps her energy up, pray that nothing is wrong with her already. She needs to see the doctor for that rundown feeling. Great chapter. PPS

    6. It’s like Hels was channeling Alice and Jenny both while she “helped” Tina during that interview, but the f-me pumps… that’s all Helena. As for Tina… girl, you’ve gotta learn to give Bette a chance to screw up first, she might surprise you by not doing it! Love the story, more soon, please! Thanks

    9. I am glad that Tina saw what she was doing even though it did take a disagreement to get the point across. And Bette is being a responsible parent in wanting the best for her children now she just needs to find a way to get that while allowing someone to help them. So glad that the girls made up and ended the day in a OH SO HAPPY way. :)

    10. I loved the beginning (the morning in the shower) and the end (bedtime). The middle was funny but scary at the same time. Helena sure knows how to scare someone. I loved how Mrs. E stood up to her.

    11. I thought that was a charming chapter and I’m still laughing at Helena’s interviewing techniques. “Are you attracted to Tina, Ms. Epstein?” But I’m glad Tina moved forward in getting some help…however misguided her efforts. Trying to do everything can really wreck a relationship.
