Met one goal

January 2nd, 2006 at 02:55 pm

I had quite the talk with my boss yesterday and she has agreed to cut my hours down to approx. 30 per week. She said that she would do whatever it took to keep me happy because she's afraid I'll quit...I told her that I wasn't threatening to quit, I just didn't want to work as much as I have been. She understood, let me rearrange my hours to suit me and told me to change my hours around if these weren't working for my family and me. I now will be working Wednesday and Friday evenings from 4:00-12:00, and Sunday and Monday during the day. On Mondays I often only work 9:00-2:00 because I pick the kids up after school, but with Dh only working part time from home, and with a totally flexible schedule, I could stay longer if needed. We will see how this all pans out...

Things I will do to save money today:
1) Eat breakfast at home and bring lunch to work.
2) Use up the leftovers in the fridge for dinner.
3) Freeze all leftover Christmas baked goods.
4) Hang a load of laundry to dry.
5) Return all cans and bottles and add money to my 2006 $5000 challenge.

    Thanks. I'm glad too. My boss is unbelievable and my favourite thing about her is that she truly understands that my family comes first. She knows that if everything is okay at home then I'll be okay at work. She waited 3 years for me to come work for her (I used to be in another department)because she knew I wanted to stay very part time, and will bend over backwards to do what she can to accomodate me. Things will change in September when all of my kids are in school full time and I won't need to be home during the day with any rug rats!
