what i want wednesday

The one thing that I really want today is for June 9th to be here! What happens on June 9th? I will be officially unemployed! Well, I will stop being paid to work, anyway. I am going to become a stay-at-home mom (again)! I'm extremely excited but equally as nervous. I stayed home with Monkey until he was 3 1/2 and I have always felt guilty for not doing the same with Mady-Lou. After you factor in the expense daycare, gas, etc...what the hell am i even working for?! Nickels, mostly. Occasionally dimes. So, MKH and I decided (he actually decided long ago but finally convinced me) that it makes more sense for me to stay home. I can't wait for library trips, the swimming pool, long walks, play dates, day camp, and all the other fun summer stuff that I will actually get to do with my rugrats instead of paying someone else (my sister-in-law) to do with them! Financially, we will be fine. The little I make pretty much goes directly to shopping so if I at least cut some of that out, we'll be golden. It sounds great in theory, but whether or not I can actually STOP shopping remains to be seen. Stay tuned to find out if I have driven my family into poverty...
