Craving for OJ turns terribly wrong!

I had a CRAZY craving for OJ today. So I bought one and drank it and it was awesome. Then 2 hours later I ran to the bathroom to throw it up! That was far from awesome and actually quite acidic and gross and painful. Now I am off OJ. Which is sad as I used to love OJ and the last time I drank it was in May 2006 when I was pregnant with Ronin. And then I threw it up and vowed no more OJ until after Ronin was born. And then I got off juice completely and only began to crave it until now – or should I say until 11am.

So daycare expenses will kill me. I am spending $700 a month for a nanny at my mom’s house who also cleans when she has the time - which was a lot before Ronin learned top walk at 8 months. Now Ronin needs more … he needs more activities and socialization. So mom looked into a few classes and says they will cost $300 a month extra. Which means $1000 a month? I could put him in full time daycare for $1000 a month in Brewster. For 8am – 6pm care. But I didn’t want to do that yet as I wasn’t sure he or I could handle that. Then I wouldn’t hear about all the cute things he does and the new words and the new experiences … because strangers would be caring for him not family.

But with another on the way I need to reconsider this scenario and since I got knocked up so fast I will / should put him in something full time by Jan as I would have to go back to work after the sequel goes to my mom by February.

And Sean’s J-O-B is not set yet for September and that is stressful! So I really do not know what I can afford on top of the mortgage but alas I have no choice!
