Did you miss me?

Well we made it back yesterday.  Let me just say its amazing we all survived the trip back.  I forgot how the girls behaved with each other.  30 minutes into the trip back, I had to pull over and make Evie get in the front seat to separate them.  Then they would argue and yell... yeah.   So I figured they were just tired.  Last night Evie slept in her room and Nat with me.  Well this morning things were just as bad.

I seriously don't know what to do!!!  Both girls have been so used to being away from each other and now that they are back together its just fighting after fighting.  Nat will pick on Evie.  Evie will lose her control and go after Nat.  This is where I am feeling the effects of being 400 miles away from my parents.  In the past, one of the girls would go with my parents or stay the night there and just get a break.  well now we cant do that.

Don't get me wrong, there are days they do great.  One of the moments today, we went to the library and Evie had fun teaching Natalie about the activities and how to use the library computers.  They had fun.  Then as soon as well were ready to leave there... it started up again.  I'm sure that they will outgrow this... but why cant it be NOW?

Let me tell you Single parenting kids like this (especially with a special needs child) is for the pits.  What I need is someone to move in and help with housework, cooking, keeping kids busy, and offering me neck massages lol That sounds like heaven.  But more or less be there to help when the girls start acting up.  When those two go at it, it is a two adult job.

Oh well.

Another update, I did NOT take the full time job.  You might think I am crazy for this but I do have my reasons.  I did however take the parttime job that will work with my other job.  I may not get the same days off, but they will work with each other and I only have to find a sitter for the hours I work at the store.  This also will give me a little extra spending so I can take the class that I do need to transfer my EMT.

Anyways it is about bed time for me.  I need to finish some documenting for work then I am going to fall asleep.  Tomorrow I'm working 10 - 2.  Then 6 - 9 (2nd job).  I can do this
