Trying to update more regularly...

Hmm, well, things seem to be going pretty well now. I had started to save up some serious cash, then the car broke down and it cost us more than serious cash to fix it. Ah well. Will start saving again. Can't complain - I mean at least we had the money to fix it even if it left us scrounging the kitchen for food until payday. (I buy extras of everything when we do have the money for just such an occasion)

Anyway, my niece asked me a while ago if I would babysit her son when she went back to work. At the time the idea seemed so overwhelming and I said no. Now with Scott going back to school I'm wondering if I made the right decision, but I told her I could. She goes back to work next week. Hey, she's paying me so I can earn my own money for my own things and have a job where I can still stay at home with my daughter, take care of house. Additionally my niece will know he's in a better atmosphere than day care. Well, at least I think it is.

I told her up front that if it wasn't working out I wasn't going to hesitate telling her so. I'm sure it won't be a problem, but just by it being said I don't feel I'm getting in over my head with an obligation. I wondered if it sounded cold of me to say that, but I needed to for my own peace of mind.

Oh, and when I say things seem to be going pretty well, I will also add that includes between hubby and me. Maybe it was all just the school thing - maybe it was stressing him out as well, but we've been getting along quite well. I can't help wondering if it'll get bad again because it always does.

Why does anyone get married? I'm not sure I understand that right now. I rather wish I had known then what I know now.
