Fast forward

It's been 6 weeks with the new job.

Days of getting up at 5:00 AM to get the girls to the sitter (a round trip of 60+ miles). Getting to work on time, getting home after the evening round trip and making dinner and then collapsing in bed. Urgh.....(I think I can, I think I can) Thankfully, the days of 5:00 AM wake up are only once a week now.

My wonderful sister (Momo) takes the girls to help offset the cost of paying a sitter. I rather like that they get to spend some time with her and I know they are a little spoiled for the day when they are there but isn't that what aunts do? They come home exhausted and full of Aunt Momo's good cooking. Not to mention a few new toys too.

The job is great. They tell me this is the slow time of the year and I fully believe them! I like what I'm doing and I really think this will lead to better things in the future. It's interesting work and there is so much to learn.

What I don't like is the reduction in pay. OUCH! Things were tight before but now they really are. Hopefully our money saving ways and reduction in a few bills will help. All I can say is come on Febuary!

Thanks for reading and I'll try not to go 6 weeks without posting!

    1. Ah ha! Thank you for directing me to Karens' blog. That helped a lot. I did change the settings.

      Thanks for stalking me enough to help me. I really appreciate it. As you can see, blogging is new to me and newbies generally need all the help they can get.

      Hope all is well with you and your family.
