'DYK I really hope he will seek out counseling. Tomorrow morning he is meeting his best friend for breakfast. I have encouraged him to talk with his friend and open up to him about it. '

dyk I'm struggling with how to say this...but I guess this is the most straightforward way...if he does go to counselling..he needs to go for the right reasons....going to counselling because he feels guilty or because you want him to, are not necessarily going to do him a lot of good...he needs to go because he wants to stay in the marriage and make it work

dyk sigh...I've been thru my share of things of this ilk and just sending hugs for you and hoping things all work out for you

'dyk and the best part is being able to send them home at the end of the weekend'

dyk i'm so envious of people who have baby/toddler time with others...

dyk i have no nieces nor nephews..nor grandchildren (not that I'm asking quite yet!)...nor any friends with babies...

dyk it's been years since I have been around a little one....well I guess since connor was born 9 years ago!

dyk well Connor has the chicken pox...he had them as a baby already and we thought he was done!

dyk poor kid has them all on the top of his head, on his eyelids, in his ears, in his throat....you get the idea..all the way down including his boy parts, LOL and right to the bottom of his feet...

dyk he is in lots of pain with all the achiness...and pretty miserable with itching

dyk he is living on tylenol, benadryl and calamine

dyk and when he is feeling ok, he works on my cafe and farm on facebook..he thinks that's fun...LOL

dyk I called my boss yesterday and told her that he had just found out he had chicken pox and was on his way from 2 weeks at his dad to be with me for 2 weeks...

dyk I asked if I could work evenings/overnights, so i can be home with him during the day and go to work once my older kids are home (who can babysit)

dyk my boss was happy I had a plan and thankfully said yes...

dyk so I will work 7pm - 6:30 am (regular work + overtime already scheduled) and then get home approx 7:30 each morning as connor is waking up

dyk sleep? what sleep? LOL

dyk I am also getting up at 4am to head to my 'other' job for about 6 hours tomorrow morning

dyk on wednesday we have a stat for Remembrance Day adn I cannot work that evening at my regular job, so I will go to the 'other job' that evening

dyk I had already promised hours (and truthfully need them) so it's just means a bit of fiddling as I'm not used to working evenings/nights

dyk possible new job update

dyk so you all ready I passed the security check and then was waiting for signature for final approval of the position

dyk got the signatures

dyk then was told all the unsucessfull candidates had to be notified and had a 5 business day appeal time-frame

dyk found out someone appealed about all was ok now

dyk THEN found out that during the appeal someone figured they should go thru my process with a fine-toothed comb to ensure no problems down the road,

dyk well they found out when I had my interview board, they forgot to ask one question...apparently it was left off the question sheets

dyk so I am to be called back in with the full interview board, for one question.

dyk that was to be done next week

dyk when I am at home during the day with my sick little boy

dyk I have asked if they will consider a telephone interview board, since they already have all seen me etc...

dyk if not, I will have to see if my older son can take a day off work or go in late, so I can attend this board....it's not easy for him to do that, but we'll see.

dyk so the process continues...

dyk ps: I applied in february! :_)

dyk well my new treadmill is at my office, awaiting a drive home

dyk I don't have a car, so until Steve can pick it up...I can't use it..

dyk he has his kids this weekend so cannot go and get the treadmill (wouldn't fit) and someone has to let him into the office...

dyk we were figuring he could grab it monday or tuesday, but now I'm not there!!!

dyk sigh

dyk hoping he will go if I arrange with my colleague for her to do the transfer!!!

dyk otherwise I may not have the treadmill for another week or so...and I don't think the boss really wants it sitting in the office

dyk although there were lots of jokes going around that if anyone ate a piece of brownie that someone brought in, they had to hop on the treadmill to burn it off!
