all good things must come to an end

What? is probably the question on most people's mind by this title. I'm referring to my job. Right now I work about 13 hours a week. It's has been splendid to be home with my kids before they go to bed and two days off in the middle of the week. Unfortunately my checkbook has been feeling the crunch. With the way things are now days(I feel like I am ancient)that I need to work more.

On Monday I came into work and was told that another department had a position opened for me. It would be Monday thru Friday, the hours would be 4-12am. (I know sounds crazy right)This was my original schedule when I first started working. If I switched positions I would also get a pay increase. Who doesn't like that? Well after much thought and prayer Mike and I decided that it was the best for our family right now. I didn't really want to quit my currant job to try to find something else that paid the bills. I know it is not forever. Plus I know that I'm helping out my family so that we can reach our goals.

I know I have some critics about being a working mom. I don't mind that advise or concern, you might have. I am taking donations if anyone is offering to my cause to keep at my currant position. :)

We got a very surprising piece of mail last Tuesday saying that we owed the Federal Government $3200, because we messed up on our taxes. This caused us to rethink what we can do to help us with this mess. I feel it's a great blessing has been sent to us. I am nervous for Mike to be home with kids at night. We have a routine right now and I hope that because "mean" mom isn't home to enforce, that it doesn't exists. We will see. The other down fall I for see is I could become a little more tired then I already am. I think those Sunday naps will be more useful now. So wish me luck on this new adventure it starts April 28Th.
