Turning up the heat
It's difficult to run the show on nearly everything that goes on around here. On top of my full-time studies and full-time work, I have so many responsibilities to tend to at home that I can't get everything done in the time span I've provided, even if its all planned out time block by time block. I was greatly, greatly disappointed to find out that Tyler called into work tonight for the fact that he stayed out all night without sleep, knowing that he had a closing shift to go to and instead decided to party it up with his friends. It's his choice entirely whether or not he wants to really piss off his work, and he could do what he wants, but it's the fact that right now most of our expenses are paid for by me entirely, and I'm certain that he doesn't realize some financial matters we need to take care of as far as the house goes. I've been working my ass off, and sometimes it feels like it just doesn't get anywhere with what is spent. I'm trying my best for the both of us to work on a budget, but for some reason there always has to be a loophole for him somewhere.
I dislike how he lets his friends influence him to do things when he knows he has work the next day. It's not his friends that push him to do things, it's just that he himself allows it to happen. Right now I'm worried that he might get suspended for calling in on a friday night of all nights, and especially when he is the closer and he is the only other person to help the opener at his work. I would be absolutely pissed if I was the opener and that happened to me. It's just... fucked up, in blunt terms. A suspension on his end is not what we need right now, especially with our water heater practically falling apart and our dishwasher leaking. I really want 2010 to be a productive year for both of us, but so far it doesn't seem like anything is happening yet, despite all the promises and long talks of changing things around. Perhaps I need to up the ante a little more from my end? *sighs*
