Back to work tomorrow... for me anyway, at minus 12 hrs. and counting Ryan is still "begging" me not to send him off this year...
I'm not budging on how I feel it is clear to him... I explained that YES i will be angry with him if he doesn't go... I mean it won't be the "I'm gonna divorce you you lazy motherfucker" variety of angry, but I won't get over it easy...
He is actually wanting to go back to Wal-mart...
Man he pisses me off sometimes...
Pat called today and said they would be leaving the shop at 6 am tomorrow...Headed for Minnesota for about 2 weeks and then coming home to work locally for the next (month?)
Even Ryan's mom said give it a try... Ryan just has this thing with Pat being a hardass, But I explained that Pat was raised that way and he is just like my dad all harsh words he says to quickly but doesn't really mean.
Ry needs a thicker skin.
So work for me will be a joy this year... found out that Ryan and I are just out of the income bracket to receive any sort of daycare assistance from my indian tribe ( last yr we had 50% of the $ 300.00/ week paid. ) Basically me working would pay for daycare so we can't go that route. Talked it over with Pat and my mom and dad and came to the conclusion that I could take the kids to work with me, My mom and dad could take them a couple of afternoons a week or something... somehow we'd be able to work it out.
So tomorrow it starts Lana's daycare... Well that is how I am gonna run things...As I said befor many times my job isn't demanding A LOT of downtime... so this won't be so much of a problem... we have a conference room that we never use so I am gonna set things up in there for the kids... I have a tv with a dvd player and I am bringing some reading, work and coloring books, a few small toys and puzzles... I am bringing a sleepingbag for Ev and Spence to have a nap ( she takes a nap everyday, He may take one, but most likely it will just be rest time. There is a fridge and micro there, so lunch will be easy, and we can even go to my mom's sometimes... I think I am so fortunate to have the family that I do willing to help me out...
If only Ryan could see that.

oh I added a new link , just cuz I am a sucker for compliments... check out my Johari and sign it... Maybe I won't feel like the meanest wife in the world then...



UPDATE: It's 6 am as I type this and Ryan is currently in the bathroom "sick" - Guess who is pissed...? Here I am to wipe the mess up yet again... and he said he won't even answer the phone when Pat calls...
