graveyard shift

Sep 16, 2009 02:36

So i'm back to working again, graveyard shift at walmart. At first it felt like I was signing my soul away to the devil. Before I despised the place. But it's growing on me. There are alot of benefits for working for the big store. That and I have to work if we want to provide for our son. I want to leave him something when I leave this world. On the upside I am making new friends, and feeling more like a person of my own. I haven't worked in so long, it was weird getting adjusted to a schedule. Not to mention the graveyard shift, but it works for us because I can still be home during the day to take baby to drs. appts. and such. Hubby has been a real trooper and Vin's at the age where I feel comfortable with him being alone with daddy. He's almost off his bottle and soon we'll be potty training. It will be nice to have some play money so we can have some fun, being on a budget bites. But it's good to know that I can stick to a budget if I need to. There is a new pre k in town that is nicer than others that I want baby to go to, and that costs money. I get my lunch break at 2am, so I come home, get online and play... kicking off my shoes is my favorite part of coming home. I get to work by myself two nites out of the week, and yesturday and today are the two nites. The rest of the time I have to work next to someone and I deal with it okay, but it is trying my tolerance of others. Just one other. It isn't always bad. Just sometimes. Ugh. In five minutes I have to get ready to head back, but the highlight of my nite was at dinner w/ hubby & baby, when baby was so tired he just laid his head down by his plate and was fighting his sleep so hard. It was adorable. Then he got made when I started to laugh at him. So cute. He is 34 pounds and growing so fast. We found a nurse practitioner in town that I really like, she takes the time to explain things thoroughly and makes us feel like real people. I must go now but will write more later. Excited to get my first check this week even though it will only be for my first week. Lovely. Having fun...Kat
