My week in review...oh so interesting!

So, I'm exhausted and glad it's Friday night.

This week I have taken on a new work assignment that has caused me to become insanely stressed out, already, and it's only the first week...there are several more to come.

The work assignment would be fine, but I have a problem...I'm a control freak. I'd say I'm a perfectionist, but really I'm not, I would just like if everyone did things the exact same way I do them, because then I'd know everything was done right and efficiently.

But, life isn't perfect, and neither am I...so instead I just become insanely stressed out and freak out about how I can get ALL THIS WORK DONE!

I can't leave work behind too much this weekend because I am working two extra shifts this weekend so I can ensure we are financially able to pay someone to watch Jake for a few weeks while my mother-in-law recovers from surgery.

It won't be rough work, but it's work. However, these shifts are overnights, so Jake should not know that I am not home and I won't miss out on any cuteness...or, as the way things were tonight, the whining and crankiness. Darn colds, they make those kiddos so grumpy!

So there's my update for the week. Hopefully, I'll be able to catch up and get my brain organized so I can post something worthwhile soon!

Have a great weekend everyone!

I know that it's gonna be tough leaving Jake w/ a sitter, but don't forget that the lil guy will pick up on your anxiety, try to make it an adventure for him. Is it someone you know or a daycare?

I hope that you're having a good weekend :) Try to get some rest!!

Oh, bummer, I hate having to leave the kids with a sitter, but sometimes it has to be done.
It will be fine, though.

I love your specification and I concur: I don't really need things to be perfect, I just need them to be done MY WAY!

Thanks for stopping by my place today/1
