Sick Mommy

The thing about being sick with 2 young kids is that it drags out longer if you don't rest. And you all know that rest and babies don't necessarily mix. Not only does your head hurt like hell and hitting it against the wall seems like the best remedy, your nose feels so stuffed up you can't breathe properly.

And wow, just as I'm typing this my daughter decides to show her love by spitting up on mommy's feet...with a smile on her face of course. How can I not smile back? No wonder she does it a lot. She probably thinks I like it when she spits up on me.

Anyway, to get back to what I was saying...being sick sucks! I haven't been sick for some time, so I thought for sure my super mommy powers were getting stronger. Apparently I am only human after all. Fudge!

I am trying Cold-EEZE right now, because my husband swears by it. I just started it yesterday. Hopefully it works. If it does I will be posting about it and praising it like crazy.

Thank goodness I have a day off today. At least I can attempt to rest while I'm at home with the kids. LOL! Yeah, like that would ever happen. Anyway, time to change yet another diaper..next time I will be talking about how scary and exciting it is to watch my 9/10 month old walk. Has anyone invented baby helmets yet?  ; )

p.s. I did not get the first job I was waiting for (they hired someone internally). But I am trying to stay optimistic. I have another job I am waiting for and it gives me an opportunity to work from home. Wish me luck!

The Waiting Game

So, I hate my job.

I know what you're thinking. So do millions of people in the world. But you need to really know me to understand that I don't just complain all the time when it comes to work.

I had another interview today and I am really hoping that this will help me with my current dilemma. I don't just quit, so I figured that in order to stay true to myself I have to find a new job to replace the one I currently have. Why do I hate my current job so much, you might ask? It's simple really...Crazy hours=No time for family. Highly stressful job=depressed and tired. Low pay=not worth it.

Why am I still sticking with it you might ask? It's because I am constantly fighting with myself. I ask myself, will I be considered a bad parent if I quit? What would my kids think of me if I do? These thoughts continue to run in my mind over and over again. Yes, I know my son is only almost 3 and my daughter is only 9 months old. And yes I know I'm crazy. Please tell me something I don't know.

At this point it is all a waiting game. Will I get the new job or will I not? Should I quit the one that I currently have or should I not? What path am I really destined to take?

Until next time...
