Relieved...

S is going to pick up the baby from school today. I am so relieved b/c I usually have to do it (since I can get off work easily and it's a hassle for him to) and I absolutely hate that long, annoying, traffic-filled drive even on early Friday afternoons. It just stresses me out every time I have to go up there and I always feel resentful that the baby is so far away from us. Still, after he picks her up he's going to drop her off here with me at Job #1 so I can watch her while he goes back to work since we need every last dollar he can make. She and I will be here for just a little while before we go to Job #2. Then we have a marriage counseling session and she has been very good at all of them, waiting nicely outside in the waiting room, watching Spiderman on the PSP.

I was thinking last night at Job #2 how truly fortunate I need to feel that I do have workplaces where the baby can come spend time with me. She can sit on the floor of my office at Job #1 and color, draw, make me laugh, etc. And at Job #2 she can sit on one of the 32 computers in there and watch SpongeBob, do computer coloring, make me laugh, etc.

Tomorrow I have to go work at Greek Fest and I always love working there b/c it's usually pretty fun and the food is out of this freakin' world. Opa! I'm working the 4p-midnight shift so Auntie J. is coming with us so she can watch the baby until S gets off work and can come pick her up. Auntie J. is being nice enough to do this in exchange for food only, but man, what a load of food she is going to get!!!
