Big News!

Before you go there... nope I am not pregnant, that wont be happening until next year. ;o)

DH and I made the HUGE decision tonight that I will be a stay at home mom! (I can't believe I just typed that, it is still sinking in) We consolidated some bills and DH was able to pick up a regular tutoring job that is 4 days a week for the entire school year. I will be cleaning my mom's place (she was going to hire a housekeeper anyways) and keeping an eye on my grandma to make a little extra money.

I will be going back to work on Tuesday and turning in my 30 day notice. It will be nice to make the extra money to put away for our "just in case" fund and going back to work and working out my notice just feels like the right thing to do.

I am so excited yet a little scared.

    I think you are doing the right thing by working out your notice for sure. Extra money will come in handy.

  • Congrats! Don't be nervous about going back to work or turning in your notice. Women decide to become stay at home moms all the time. They will understand.
  • Oh im not worries about telling work. Ive talked to my boss about it before and I know he will be totally bummed, hes got kids who have a stay at home mom so he will understand.

    Its just scary only having 1 income! Ive never not had my own money! But I know I can always get a job if need be.
