i have to work tonight and i really don't
want to.
i haven't seen nick since he went to bed
last night, i have to leave the minute he
gets home tonight, then i'll get home just
as he's going to bed.
not to mention, finn's not feeling well
and it makes me feel bad that i won't be
here to take care of him and i'll miss his
bedtime routine.

aww it'll be okay! you'll be so glad when
you see your old friends again! i know i
always dread going into work but then when
i'm there i'm totally fine. just think
that finns daddy will be there to take
care of him this time and when you get
home from work you can sit down and cuddle
up with them both & you'll get
money out of the deal!

well, sunday was ok because i was working
with my old friends. tonight i'm working
with someone i've never met before and i'm
shy around new people. it's just going to
be the two of us so i hope she's friendly
and chatty!
and there will be no cuddling when i get
home, finn will have been in bed for hours
and nick might already be in bed or
staying up just long enough to see me.
it is easy money though, and i make a good
amount considering it's just retail.

I know how that is. My husband worked
second shift for a year. By the time I
got home from work, he would already be
gone. When he came home from work, I
would be sleeping. The only time we got
were the weekends. I'm so glad he is back
to day shift.

yeah, i work sundays 10-5 and thursdays
5:30-9. i guess i shouldn't complain
because that's all i have to work, and
after summer i'll only have to work
sundays.
i'm just having a hard time because i just
started back on sunday and i'd never been
away from finn before that.

work rots, plain and simple. I make very
good money for my area, and .I really do
love my job, but if .I didn't have to work
to pay house payments, insurance, etc .I
wouldn't.

I agree!! I would love to be a sahm after
my baby is born. But it takes my paycheck
and my husbands to pay the bills and feed
us. Maybe when our kids are older, I can
be a stay at home grandma!!!!!

That's what my mom did. Well actually she
stayed home until my brother started
school, then retired when I got pregnant
and she babysits Ava for me to work.
Bridget, that's why I hate when Jesse
works nights. We see each other for an
hour a day and when I work, it's 15
minutes or less a day.
Have fun tonight even though.

oy.
i got to work and everyone was all
"briiiiidget! what are you doing here?
where's finn?", and i was all "well, i
didn't think it would be appropriate to
bring him to work with me..."
yeah, apparently my boss forgot that he
asked me to work. i wasn't on the schedule
and there were already 2 closers.
i decided to stay since i'd driven a half
hour to get there and i thought it would
be easier to get to know the girl i didn't
know if i had someone else there that i
did know.
on the plus side, i got my check for last
week and noticed that i'd gotten a $1 an
hour raise! woot!

Wow a whole dollar raise, thats cool!
Thats what I need. It's nice that you got
to stay and get to know your co-workers.
