Crappy night...

I haven't posted much in a while...and this isn't going to be an uplifting post, so feel free to skip!!

I have decided that I am going to get another job...another part-time one. That way at the very least Dennis can quit his second job. He is working so much...at two jobs that stress him out too much. You wouldn't think that working for the circulation department of the paper he would be stressed. But he gets calls just about every evening. I tell Dennis to just not answer his calls, listen to the v-mail, and then decide if he should call back. That doesn't work for Dennis. He is the epitome of the "nice guy." Unfortunately that means that he is taken advantage of a lot. I LOVE that he is willing to do this so that I can be home with Freddy...but this isn't worth it. He is so unhappy.

I know that he really wishes that he could just replace his first job... Unfortunately he is making good money there. Money that is going to be hard if not impossible to match at another "service industry" job. He would love to start fresh...in a new direction, but he isn't sure what that direction is.

I know what you are all thinking...that this wouldn't be a problem if I stayed at the VA. BUT then we would have two unhappy parents with a baby in daycare...and that is not what we want. (THANK YOU FAMILY FOR HELPING MAKING THAT POSSIBLE).

SO...Dennis and I are trying to figure out how to make everything work. First and foremost we need to pay our bills...and on that same priority level we BOTH need to be happy. That realization on top of the HORRIBLE day that I have had makes for an unhappy Becky :0(
