When you've got a 6 pack of boys, everyday is a PARTY! How, you ask, do I manage to stay so sane? That, my friends, is only an illusion......

Sir Cranky Butt!
Those of you who know me are well aware that we are by no means, a wealthy family. We have been living from paycheck to paycheck for what seems an eternity. Dh has been working his hiney off to make a better life for us all. The boys of course don't understand the value of a dollar and act like spoiled brats when they can't have this or that. I must say, even though we aren't rich, the boys are very well taken care of. Jared and I are more than willing to do without a couple of things to make sure the boys have what they need (and then some!) Well, things are finally looking up for our lil family.....Jared started his own business about 2 years ago and it's been slowly limping along. He works a full 40-60 hours a week for mere pennies. He's also been running his own business alongside his normal day job. Needless to say, he's worn out as hell! He works 6-7 days a week and has been doing so for the last 1.5 yrs! He doesn't complain much though which is good. I'm glad he's willing to do it so I can stay home with the guys. Not that I don't or won't work, I would actually welcome the break, but, it's nice to know that I can always be there for the guys. PLUS, it's sooo hard to choreograph when I can work and where the boys will be.....It's not worth it really. Well, getting back to my point.....Jared's buying a route to add on to his current route. (He does swimming pool maitenance and repairs) What does this mean for us? Well, August 26th will be his last day at his current day job and he'll be doing his own business FULL TIME! He'll be working much less and making double what he's making now! YEAH! The boys will actually have a dad again! It's been rough for them not having him around. You would think all of this would be lifting Jared's spirits a bit....a light at the end of a long, hard tunnel? NOPE! He is Sir Cranky Butt! He's grumbling and grimacing and walking around with his panties in a bunch. I can hardly wait till September when he's on his own. Maybe he'll return to human form? One can only hope!
