Funemployed....

They say things always happen for a reason, I hope me being laid off last Friday is my turning point in life. I don't know how long it will last but for now I will enjoy my domestic duties to the fullest. Right now I don't have a plan, I'm just taking this week to organize and purge my home. I used to come home so tired and give my attention to crabby that anything home related was just done when I could.

Anyhow, now it's time to brainstorm and see what this new chapter in my life is all about. There are a few things I have in mind to go ahead and give a try to, but that will be for another post. Right now, this week it's all about Crabby and the home :)


Crabby is like my shadow these days, she won't even go over to the grandparents house, not even with bribery, unless it's "mango!" She is a whirlwind, always doing something, saying something, laughing, running, cutting, gluing, coloring, eating, drinking...omg she does not stop...very big props to the grandparents while they were taking care of her.

Well, I will end it for now. But I do see many posts in my future seeing as I have nowhere to go in the mornings :)

Silver Linings....

You know the saying "there's always a silver lining" or something like that...
well I found one...
I was told yesterday that my hours have been cut down to half, which means part-time...
which means almost half my pay...
which means...
I get two days off out of the week...
which means more time with my baby!!!!!!
See there's the silver lining...

I will be making a little more than my previous job, but I will have more free time with my child, which is all I really wanted. In a way god answered my prayers, but it is still a shock...
Working full time I would usually get home anywhere from 6:30pm - 7:30pm, depending on how busy we were and traffic...I feel I have missed out on a lot of my baby's life these past six months...usually when I get home, she is ready for bed...I give her her bottle and within an hour she is asleep...I can't keep her up, that will just mess her up, and weekends are always filled with errands and trips to grandmas house, grandma hardly gets to see her also...sooooo in the end I guess it's for the best...
For now...the husband says it'll be ok...I know it will...we can make it work with my new pay...we've done it on less...and although there is one more little person in the budget now...she doesn't need many things for now...
