omg i can't believe this is on my calendar!

induction
__________
yup! i decided that i would induce labor, my dr. decided the date. i feel good about it and i'm really excited but here's the pro's and con's:
-my child won't have a "natural birthday"
-there's no waiting any longer for labor to occur on the due date
-my doctor will be able to deliver his own baby
-family and friends and myself can plan for the delivery
of course my mother had to say something about the birthday being the one of a hated ex-family member :{ Davey Jones wants me to wait one more day so it's on his birthday, but i like saying the 21st. it rolls off my tongue. so screw my mom and her brother-in-law's birthday!
i spoke with the store manager today and asked to secure my job. since i haven't been there 1year the corporate office says i don't qualify for the state act maternity leave. but that's ok, the store manager said that they just wouldn't "terminate" me, i just wouldn't be on the schedule, and the pharmacy crew is ok with that ^.^ but i did express to them that i had those job offers coming up in August and to not wait on me.
one thing my mom brought to my attention, and i have already thought of this... i want a higher paying job, but i might loose my benefits. my food stamps, free health insurance and perscription discounts, and child care assistance (which i will be applying for next week). i might loose those and not be able to afford the child then, so is it beneficial to stay working for less and not loose my benefits? it makes sense to me, but that's not what i want to do. i'll talk to Syc about it. but she mentioned one thing to me i hadn't thought of and i need to research this first...school. in order for me to re-attend college, do i need to be "poor" or just eligible for benfits in order to get a state grant/scholarship? i'll talk to my cousin and reseach some on the internet.
Syc got a job! it doesn't seem real. he went drinking with a friend last night and they offered him a job as a bar back! he's supposed to make bank, and i've got my hopes up, and big plans for the future. they are realistic goals, i will just have to try my best to keep my best foot forward and my mind striaght, i'm thinking of making notes... that would probably be a good idea! yes. i will do that in just a minute.
with Syco's news and this scheduled induction it's put so many things on my mind, i love it! it's mental exercise and i'm in love with progress <3
