As a mostly stay at home mom, I go through times where I feel guily about leaving home to go to work. What makes it not so terrible is Andy being home when I am gone. We have a great system that keeps our kids out of day care. This last two days I spent working while Andy played Mr. Mom. Sometimes, I am embarrassed to admit, he does a better job staying at home than I do. This was one of those times. My house is clean, laundry is done, dinner is made and the kids are happy. While I was at work though I had a major break through in the job dilemma. I walked straight into my bosses office today and asked for a raise. Whoa, now I'm getting bold, so not like me. Well, she didn't even think about it before she said YES! So now I am getting a raise and I don't feel like I need to run out and find another job that will pay my true worth. It really is no small raise either. Today was a good day.
Yay Carrie!! That is so awesome and I'm so proud of you for gathering the courage to do that.
