I keep wanting to write but I can't. I'm a bit stressed at the moment.
Beaker was laid off last wednesday. He'd come home for days off on tuesday and on wednesday, his site manager called to let him know that everyone on the contract was laid off. We have some money set aside in what we like to call a 'retirement fund'. Hopefully it can remain there.
Punkin started soccer today. She loved it.
The final hurdle of my nursing license is about to be crossed: they needed my transcripts. Once they have them, my license app will be mailed and I will hopefully be licensed by mid-June. There's lots of work for nurses, so if we have to, Beaker can Mr. Mom for a bit. I don't like the idea one bit, as I will be making signifigantly less than him, but you do what you have to.
So forgive me if I don't feel like writing. It's taking most of what I have in me to not melt into a panic attack right now.

*HUGS* and prayers for you hun . . .
Oy.
Just do your best...that's all you can do right now. And on the bright side, at least you won't be "single parenting" so much now, right?
I am so, so sorry. I hope the stress is short-lived.
I'm so sorry to hear all this.
I do know that D's lay-off several years ago was the best thing that ever happened to us. He has a much better job now, although there was a bit of a pay cut (made up for by far better benefits, far more humane work environment, etc.)
Here's hoping that Beaker will find something quickly that won't involve the kind of travel that has stressed your family and that you will find the *perfect* nursing job and that Punkin continues to love soccer!
I'm so glad Punkin loves soccer. It's so much fun to watch them at this age, stumbling around, just enjoying the game.
I'm glad you're getting closer to your nursing license. I know it seems scary and unnatural to go back to work, but you may be surprised. I hated going back to work full-time after working barely part-time for two and a half years of Goober's life, but he's doing well and I'm doing well and ... the best part... we all have health insurance.
Hang in there. I'm sending hugs from Wisconsin.
