Re: Oh Baby Wednesday
What are your plans for childcare (mom or dad staying home, daycare, nanny, family, a little of both)? We decided that I would stay home until I got thyroid cancer. So now because of insurance, I?ll have to work for a while until that clears (so to speak) on my insurance. We?ll probably do family care and I hope to work from home some too.
Money aside, which would make YOU happier: staying at home or working? Probably working, but I would like to have a little of both ultimately!
Does anyone have a husband that wants to stay home? Nope. He does joke though that I could be his sugar mama and he could stay home. J
For those of you that want to stay at home, how would house work be divided? Would the spouse that stays home be responsible for it all or will it be split 50/50? Do you and your husband agree on this? I?m sure I would do most of the house work. We haven?t really discussed that in depth, but I?ll probably do it mostly. The outside work would be 50/50 for sure though.
Can you have it all (family and career)? Yes, I do believe you can.
Is your job family friendly/oriented? Is there a huge issue if you have to take the day off to take care of a sick kid or take them to appointments? What if little Johnny has a soccer game that would require you to leave a little early? If you don't have kids of your own, think about what you've seen your coworkers deal with. Yes, I think my particular work group would be ?family friendly?. My boss is very understanding and promotes a good work life balance.
When was the last time you tried something new? Last night, I started 30DS!
Who do you sometimes compare yourself to? Ugh, a coworker.
What's the most sensible thing you've ever heard someone say? Gosh, I?m not even sure what to say for this one. There are so many great common sense type things. I found myself looking at my quotes on Pinterest! LOL
What gets you excited about life? God, traveling and seeing what the future holds for us
What life lesson did you learn the hard way? communication is key
B word? It was weird.

I think we will be out of town, but I'm worried that this is going to become something next year. We already have to help decorate during Homecoming (I either give up a day off or a Sunday) and this is about six weeks before prom and it means we have to buy supplies with money we don't have.
Well, yes. But if it becomes a cycle of "I won't do it again, I promise. Please forgive me"- "Yes, I'll forgive you. Let's move past this"-Person does XYZ again shortly after, I think everyone absolutely has the right to say 'Enough is enough' and not tolerate that.
I tend to agree but Hillary Clinton says otherwise. I couldn't resist.
