Mommy Needs To Vent

Can we say FAMILY JOB?
Well I thought the end of last week was stressful. All the arguing hubby and I did and the whole moving situation, and now it’s Friday AGAIN, and after a fly by week, my head hurts just as much now. I have the worst headache and have sent both of my kids to bed and it’s only 6:30 pm. I am sure they will be up again but I can not handle the noise right now. My brain just needs a break.
So I went to pick up my husband’s paycheck today, because the office lady didn’t have it done in time and he was out of the office all day. The owner decided to talk to me and offered me a job. I reluctantly took it and now I am definitely having second thoughts. It’s only part time and I don’t even like to work. Only problem is- my biggest excuse for not working is taking care of my kids. Tyler is in Prek and only goes a half a day and Peyton just gets dragged back and forth. I am a taxi, housekeeper, entertainer, cook, you name it. I often feel drained and stressed as it is, so why would I say yes to a job.
Oh yeah….sorry it’s the headache. I was getting to the point here. They are going to let me bring Tyler to and from school everyday and bring my kids to work with me. Sounds pretty tempting right? I mean don’t they know that I will be feeding and comforting more than working? Well I guess I will try it out. It will be odd working at my husband’s job but I better learn the business since he will be running it soon in another city. Did I mention my brother in law is now working there too????
Would you like a job like that? Being able to bring your kids and work with your husband? Don’t get me wrong- I probably won’t see him all day. He always works outside of the office….but still.
By the way.... How could I even get a job when I can barely get thru 8 th grade math. You try the test!

Since mine works in the OR I'd reallllly be in the way, but otherwise, I think I'd like it. I used to take my kid with me everyday when I was working, and it was terrific.

I've been out of the work force for so long, I probably am not the best person to ask! Now that my kids are grown though I would like to do something....what, I haven't a clue! LOL But those working conditions sound pretty good.
Hope your headache gets better & Good luck!!

I am going to be the Assistant Office Manager or Office Manager Assistant? I am not sure...LOL
I've had a job where I could take the kids along, if they were sick or it was the school holidays. It was ok although I must admit I did have the 'guilt' feeling that I wasn't giving them 100% - mind you I'm sure I did. I guess you can give it a go and see how it all works out.
I hated 8th grade math the first time around. I'd rather shot my big toe off.

Hi Tasha~
Hope the job goes well for you. It sounds like a nice offer especially since you can take the kids with you there. I'm sure it's worth a try and hey if it's doesn't work out at least you tried.
As far as math goes...I totally suck in math. Not one of my strong points. My son who is in 7th grade laughs at me since he knows more that me in that department. He picks up on that well.
Have a great start to your week. Hope the headaches are better!! Hugs!

Hi, Tasha. I wish to share some things with you. I invite you to my blog to read the articles and poems.
It is my dream that my blog should become a place of sharing knowledge, a place to discuss, to agree/disagree, and to obtain critiques on my work. I would like to have intellectuals, philosophers, poets, authors, thinkers and visionaries - but most of all - good humans beings visit.
I ask that you honor me with your continued visits and that you comment on any/all of my work as you can make time. I will be frequently updating it with lessons I learn from life, and you are invited to visit as often as you wish, and to spend as much time as you wish in my blog.
Thank you in advance for your time.
:)
P.S.: If you like my blog, do feel free to extend this invitation to any of your friends who may like to share.

If I needed the money - you bet.
If I didn't need the money - I'd rather stick an ice pick through my eye.

There is absolutely no way I could pass an 8th grade math test right now. I haven't slept in days and my vision is blurry! Seriously, Wendy told me to come over here today. Nice to meet 'ya!
