A few worries of mine......

Ok so I'm trying to get this job at Meijer and I'll be working midnights if I get it. This means I'll get off at 5am which is when I usually wake up. Jeremiah needs to be up at 6:30 in order to get ready for school so he can get on the bus at 7:20. Jeff told me if I could get Brieanna up right after I put Jeremiah on the bus and the both of us could stay up until 1pm then both of us take a nap he's usually home by 3-4pm and I can just sleep through until I have to get up for work. Jeremiah is capable of watching Brieanna for a bit once he get's off the bus at 3:20 until Jeff gets home from work but I'm just thinking that this again will be too much for him. I do have 2 people in mind and one has already said yes to coming to my house at 3pm to keep an eye on both of them until Jeff gets home which is what I'm thinking is the best even if she is here for 20 min before she has to watch them especially if Brieanna is still sleeping.
Now depending on if I get this job and what days I'll be working I know that I'll either have to schedule mine and Jeremiah's appointments around my schedule or at least mine and Jeff will have to make sure Jeremiah gets to his. Now some of the worries I have with this is 1) Jeff has a hard time remembering to give Jeremiah his med on the weekends.....how is he going to remember a dr.s appt? I'm the one that sets them up for both kids and myself and I'm the one that takes them. I'll have to get some kind of family calendar (I have one in my flylady control jounal) so that Jeff can see when Jeremiah has his appointments or I'll have to get a dry erase board and put it up high enough so the kids can't get to it and make a mess of the appts I write down.
Now another thing is I know Jeff is really tired when he gets home from work and while I'm sleeping he will have to take care of dinner, housework,


Hi Catherine,
I worry about the same thing a lot...and I make myself nuts about it...my son is almost 15, so obviously I worry about different kinds of things with my dh and him, but sorta the same now...I have learned that I have to just let go and let it work itself out.
Sorry I'm not more help, but you aren't nutso...I think most of us do that. Just wanted to let you know that! :) Good luck with the job and the appointments. You're doing a really good job with getting everything taken care of. I know how hard it is to get under control after its gotten SO out of control...btdt! I admire you. Hang in there...you're doing just fine!
