elaboration
So, aftter talking about our options, Baboo and I decided that my early resignation was our most cost effective option. For some reason, he was under the impression that I got paid while on leave, without using any of my own time. Nope, once I run out of sick and vacation time, I don’t get paid anymore. The only important reason for me to want stay long enough to take my leave was to keep my benefits, but now that he’s getting benefits through his new job, it’s not as urgent. Plus, by the time June hits I’ll have no vacation, and probably no 100% sick, sooo… it’s really not going to be much of anything I’d be leaving behind except for aggravation.
I mean, if we really wanted to milk every single last penny, I could try to stay on, but any money I’d really make would go towards someone watching the boys, sooo, it’s just best for me to resign and start saving us money by being home, cooking and all the rest.
So that’s what we’re doing.
I’ll be spending a lot of time at work writing up "walk throughs" for anyone that would take my place when I leave. That’s about all I’m going to worry about. I"ll put in my 2 week noticed at the beginning of June 🙂
I think I will make a ticker for that. lol
To say I’m OVER THE MOON is an understatement!
If you’ve read me for a while, you know all I’ve ever really wanted to do was be a home maker. I am so happy I am getting that opportunity. I’ll also be able to focus a little more on writing. Regardless, lots of changes happening and I’m thrilled.
We’ll be going to our last big dinner with my brother in a little bit. It’s sad, I don’t think i’ll hit until he’s actually gone, ya know?
We’ve been looking at houses, but there is always something wrong with them. The last 2 have had really small master bedrooms, meaning no room for nothing more than our bed, no dresser, no desk, no baby bassinette, so yeah… they wouldn’t work. But the price for them was good. lol. I think we’ll find the right size house with the right size price soon enough.
I will talk about the card from my mom later, but yeah, it was because she found out I was having a baby. I’m sure my brother told her. No big.
Ugh, I’m gonna guzzle water, then pee, then lay down a bit before dinner. Baboo and I are also going to have a "last hurrah" movie night just the two of us. We are going to see Act of Valor at a late showing. Then I get to come home and do a load of laundry. lol.
I’d do i tnow,b ut the pants I’m wearing really need to be washed too. ha ha.
I’m a dork.
Oh one last thing, Star Wars in 3-D was a let down. They really didn’t upgrade must of anything. I was not impressed. lol
Oh yeah, I have a ticker. Look at that!

You’re going to love staying at home!!!

Yeah there’s really not much point in staying there if the money isn’t going towards anything productive and you having to stay there. I can see the difference in that. Acknowledges the situation with your brother. Acknowledges the rest too. It’s funny how when you know someone’s typing fast or in a hurry because their words then to get either misspelled or blurred together. Lol.

episode one was a let down to me when it wasnt in 3d so im sure it would have just been a 3d let down now. Im glad things seem to be going well for you.

How far away is your brothers school? I didn’t realize that him going to school would mean him moving out. Been meaning to ask you about that. You know I never used to understand the idea behind homemaking. I’ve always really wanted to work. But lately I’m getting it, not just because of the b.s. at work, but simply because you get to be so much more involved in your kids lives. As theyget a bit older, one has more time to invest in their own hobbies. Like what if this means actually getting published for you? I think this is such a great thing for you and the family. So happy for you, Baboo and the boys 🙂

isn’t pregnancy one of those things that insurance companies can claim as a pre-existing condition and therefore deny you benefit for that? or have i been reading too many american insurance horror stories?

It’s so exciting that you get to be a homemaker soon! Your life is going to become far less stressful, too. I mean, of course there are going to be moments, but it’s sooo relaxing working from home (whether as a mom, or what).

What will the older kids do for medical? Can baboo’s insurance cover them if he hasn’t adopted them?
