State of Confusion.....

Posted Jan 4, 2010 09:28 AM
well my New Year is starting out with a BANG....my husband and I took a break for a little while and I am not sure how that is going to go....

I have no car right now so every day I am trying to figure out how to get to work and who is going to watch the kids and what if they need to come home etc.

I am trying to decide if I should keep my job that all I have done since I started was to try and figure out what to do with the kids, 2 hour delays when they are sick which i have 4 kids 13, 6, twins that are 4 and this is the first year all the kids have been in school and they have been sick a lot. Not all at the same time but for weeks it was one or the other so everyday I was trying to shuffle kids just to get to work....other than the big factor of money it doesn't seem to be working.....I am stressed every day and I can't do it anymore....

I need a miracle and I need an answer....I just don't know what to do anymore

My kids need to come first as well..... things have been really unstable in this house and you can feel the tension bad here I just wish there was a simpler answer so that I could be home and not have to worry so much....I need to work from home somehow so that my hours are flexible I don't need a lot of things we are happy with what we have but I just want to live without fear and anxiety of the everyday....

Barb,

Thank you for your words...I appreciate them and I hear them...I will persevere.....
Dear Christina,

Thank you for sharing! ... :-x ...

S-l-o-w down. Take a deep breath and tackle one thing at a time.

First, get a used car.

Second, talk to your boss. Have a heart-to-heart. IF you work hard, he/she can and will be flexible, especially if you live just 5 minutes from work and school. You can take care of your kids' needs and also do a good job.

My recommendation is do NOT be a clock watcher. Get the job you were hired to do ... done. IF you do that, your boss WILL help you out when you need the help.

I KNOW you can do what you need to do. So, do NOT quit. Persevere and you WILL succeed. It is easier to quit, but then you don't get the feeling of accomplishment I sense you really need at this time in your life. You need to regain your self-confidence and sense of accomplishment. IF you stick with the plans you have made, that will provide you with what you need.

Good luck! ... Many blessings as you work hard to get what you require in your life. It's not easy, but it IS all worth it! ... :-x ...

Take heart! ... :-x ...

Aloha pume hana,

Barb
