Working and kids

I forgot how hard it is to try and work again and have kids. I don't have a set schedule yet so I'm trying to rely onm y family and find last minute babysitters. I don't make enough at this job to even consider finding a real babysitter or daycare. I don't even make enough at this job to even go in but I kind of like it. I wonder if babysitters these days wouldn't mind getting paid in Trident layers like on the commercials. I'll try it. The money I make right now isn't worth being away from my kids or the hassle of finding someone to watch them. I kind of like it though if I made a dollar more i would probably consider staying. I'm looking into a night job right now though and if I get that try it out and make enough money I'm sadly going to quit this one. My baby spent 2 nights at my grandmas and I missed him too much. I miss sending my 5 year old off to school and making sure he's dressed and does his homework and snack. The teacher doesn't know what's going on and I feel if that stuff isn't done right it looks bad on me. I think she already doesn't like me cause I'm a younger mom. What can you do though? I'm just going to try and deal with things he best I can and take it day to day.

That's the hardest part about working, it's hard to make enough money to make childcare worth it. Good luck to you!

Hello Jessica Lynn said...

I am blog hopping today and decided to stop by your blog.

It is hard to work with kids...I quit my outside of the home job recently because it just didn't pay me enough to work...it was just extra money and when I had to drive over 30 minutes to go in part-time then 30 minutes again back...WOW!

Hope you will stop by and follow either or both of my blogs.
