Hey folks!
School already starts here in just 2 weeks (the 21st). I am so not ready for summer to end. I've had blast with my kids this summer. It makes me sad that it is ending so soon, and they are growing so fast. Glad I am at home to have these summers with them.
I actually started playing with the idea of finding part time work during the school days, and ya know what, the more I look at it, the less I can see it fitting into my family needs.
Two girls on the verge of periods, my son getting his lip sliced open at gymn class last year and I could be there in 5 minutes to get him to the ER, all the things I pull together during the day to make family time happen at night....kids being at school definitely doesn't make you a non-parent during those hours.
At the same time, I see the economy slowing, and know our lives our dependant upon the realestate market, and I am pulled to find some steady source of income to suppliment it all.
Just thought I would throw that out there...some stay-at-home-mom thoughts.....if you get my drift.
its war when that is said... Cus though I'm home, I am trying to make money... and I do as much if not more then he does. but like you said, its not a competition, we should help each other out... My husband has been really good recently I can't complain...
for you gals with the "witty" husbands!
I just wanna scream, and my husband shows no sympothy all I hear from him is "Well I'm not taking you back to the ER" I don't wanna go back, but even more I hate this pain I wish it would knock me out so I couldn't feel nothing, I just wanna cry
URG, I been in aginizing pain for the past 3 days, and last night was worse, was in ER, tonight is pretty bad, I've taken a muscle relaxer, 2 tylenols the doc gave me, and a night time excedrin, still no releaf
I got mad at him earlier and pretty much told him how it was going to be, I know he worked all day, but so have I, maybe I don't get paid for my job, but being a SAHM ya do work. Well I told hime I really didn't feel like cooking, that my body was telling me to just relax, but he insisted that I cooked, I kinda pouted about it, but delt with it, and got up to cook, I know Seth won't eat what I cooked, so I asked Coby to come in and cook Seths while I prepair ours, he said he would, Seth is bouncing under me, "Mommy, I'm hungry" well I tell him "Please go bug ur dad, he is cooking ur food tonight" so he goes and tells his daddy "Just a minute" this goes on for about 5 times, finally I'm thed up and say "Never mind, sorry I bothered to ask you to help me" and he had his head phones on so he didn't hear me. I start to prepair Seths, and he comes in "I told you I'd do it" and I tell him "I asked you to do 5 times, I got tired of asking you, if you really wanted to help me, you would have done it" well at this time, I'm upset, and not feeling good, so it rolls together, and I almost pass out, The he asks "Whats wrong?" and I tell him "Hmm, well I been running fever the past 2 days, I feel horrible, I look horrible, I can't relax because you couldn't just cook dinner tonight and let me just relax." He says "I don't know how to cook what ur cooking" Well thats not good enough I say "I could walk you through it, its easy" well at this point I'm crying, and I look at him and say "After dinner, I'm going to take a 2 hour nap, you are taking care of Seth, if Seth comes up stairs to bug me, I'm not going to be happy"
