That won't happen to me.......

HA! Thats funny!

Jeff lost his job last week! I don't think the gravity of the situation has hit really hit me yet. I mean, yes we have sprung into action and know we can't live for very long off of my income. Already I saved $50 bucks at the store this week not buying things I don't need, but could buy before. Jeff became an instant stay at home dad, so no driving across town for a babysitter (who I love and feel terrible for taking away an income for her as well) I don't handle this kinda stuff very well, which sucks for Jeff because I don't know how to let him be upset, I'm too busy being upset. AHHHHHHH I am a horrible wife =(

What in the world is going to happen, hummm, no freaking idea. This will be a very interesting time in our lives. Thank you God that I have a job and can at least provide insurance for us. We really still have so much and are blessed to not have debt (well school loans, but that's it)

I am learning a lot this year about the unexpected and the swift life changes that seem to happen almost in a matter of minuets sometimes. And to be honest it leaves me a bit confused and wondering...................

sooooo if you know of anyone who needs a hardworking Master's Degree holding HR professional let me know =)

MY GIRLS!

Love to watch them be successful!

Sept 13th-17th

I am sitting here looking at my sch for next week and feeling a little overwhelmed!



Monday- besides working out (training for 1/2 marathon) nothing really, Mondays are no matter what reserved for Josie time.



Tuesday- meet the teacher night (where I have to give a 10 min speech to my kids' parents about English this year. Talk about intimidating, they will all sit and stare at me with blank looks judging :) Need to get a babysitter!



Wednesday- group training (again for 1/2 marathon) work til 7:30pm after working all day! (I do it because I love it! LOVE IT!!!)



Thursday- Football game (my girls) need to get a babysitter!



Friday- Go to away game with the high school cheer team. Not only do I need a babysitter, I prob. need to just have Jos spend the night with someone because I won't get home til at least 10pm maybe later.



Take into consideration that I have a full time job during the day. This is all after school, and Jeff is at work during the times all of this extra stuff happens so he can't help me.



Now I am really not complaining I promise, I thrive off of being busy like this. Well not every week, that would prob take me to my breaking point. I have issues with saying no. Last year it was not as big of a deal because I had Jeff at home in the evenings this year I am learning that saying no is ok and I don't have to be involved in EVERYTHING at school. So yeah this looks like a lot but I have said no to several other things that I could be doing this week!

mommy (not this week, this week it's daddy)

"Hello my name is Danielle (well this week, I am posting on behalf of my husband so we will call it daddy guilt-oholic!) and I am a Mommy Guilt-oholic"


I had to do this, I know it's cheating but it is to perfect of a guilt story not to share, and it;s not me! This morning we were all at Wal-Mart and while I was shopping for food Jos was running around with dad. All of the sudden I hear my name being shouted and turn around to see my husband with no Josie. She had run away from him and he couldn't find her. He was freaking out. Trying to remember what she was wearing, wondering what to do, where to even start. I knew where she would be and shouted to him her clothes for the day and to go get some help, while I ran to the fitting room area. There she was looking at hats and glasses in the mirror not a care in the world. My husband is scarred for life I think, poor guy! We found him and he asked her why she ran away. She said, "I had to go potty" He told her to tell him next time and she said, "daddy I pooped" She had her very first accident in her pants and was embarrassed I think, so she was hiding from him. It was scary and I don't think he will be taking her back to Wal-Mart til she is 18 =) I know it will be hard for him to get over this guilt even though I tell him it's ok over and over!
