Yesterday after being around Carl for 10minutes I noticed a bandage over his eyebrow. Guess I wasn't looking at him much, hun!?
A bungy cord broke and the metal end went flying next to his eye. Oh my goodness!!!! Not even an inch away from his eye!!!
So he went to the emergency clinic, waited 90minutes and got 5 stitches that need to be taken out in 10 days.
Why didn't he call home to tell us he was at the clinic!? It's as if nothing happened. GEEZ!
Anyway, he kept his paycheck this week... So I don't even know how much he made... He left us 80$ for food, the budget is 60$/week 'cause we still have frozen meat left over from his past job. Still, I feel sick. I can't believe that he's willing to start paying his bills... I, on the other hand, made a mistake. I paid the Visa bill twice this month, on the up side the total is now under the credit card limit for the 1st time in a year. Down side, I could've kept this money for us to make sure the kids will be ok when he leaves... I can't believe I helped him out! :-(
I feel that if he takes this 2 weeks "vacation" that I'm not sure I'll be willing to have him back in the house. I never thought it would be so far... Man, this is awful, I feel sick to my stomach.
I don't know how I'll provide for my family!? Should I get a job at WalMart's? LOL!!!! Maybe I could get a rebate on fabric? teehee! ;-) As if I had time to sew anyway...
Someone called this morning and woke us all up. He asked for Carl but hung up before I knew who it was... I wonder WHO was it?
This afternoon kids go to daycare AGAIN! lol! Last time until tuesday afternoon, we were lucky to have them go 4 half-days this week. They usually can only go 3 half-days. It's helped me alot not having Lucas clinging on me for a few hours each day. Especially at this time.
So I'm thinking I should make Zoe something special! :-D Either a ballerina print nightgown or finish that cloth doll I started. She needs to realize that she is special to me and forget a tad about daddy...
Maybe if this afternoon after daycare she is doing good, I'll treat her to a supper at the restaurant! Ok, so I shouldn't spend our lil'money like this but I know it would really make her happy!
We'll see, we'll see...
