I'm a Bad Blogger.

Man...I'm a bad blogger these days. I have a review in the works, a post that's been in draft form for weeks (ironic, since it starts off, "I meant to post this days ago..." Oops!), and zero time and motivation to post this week.

Part of it is that I'm worried to death about what's going to happen this fall when my hours get cut back to ten. I mean, TEN HOURS?! What two-income family can survive on that? Not ours, that's for sure. Especially when I used to work 40-45 before the first hours cut. And as such, I'm starting to think maybe I should just find a new full-time position, rather than a second part-time. Which makes me terrible sad and upset and opens up a whole new set of issues, and basically I feel trapped. And screwed. And just really stressed and nervous.

As you know, I'm in the process of attempting to launch a business venture, From Two to Three. But even still, the BEST case scenario will put years between now and it being successful/profitable, and even still the market for these services makes me nervous. And, between my writing gigs, my actual job and business stuff, I'm ending up working from morning to night every day, and it's getting to me. Big time. In a nutshell, I don't know what to do, and don't know what is going to happen in the fall, and I'm FREAKING OUT.

On a more positive note, things are going great with our little family of three. Ava started saying "uh oh" yesterday, and has been saying "num nums" when eating, which is darling. She's also starting to get little curls...is there anything on Earth sweeter than baby curls? Certainly not adult curls - at least in my case, haha!

Anyways, just wanting to update and say hi and ask for any and all suggestions about what on Earth I can do to try to supplement my extra income this fall. I'm feeling so lost.

  2. I can't wait for B to start saying some words!!! :)
    I understand how things get busy... so like Emily said - take a break, we will definitely be here when you get things figured out.
    I wish I could work from home with less hours actually worked and more money made. I know... unrealistic, but I like to dream. :)
    I wanna see Ava's little baby curls!!!!
