Another option (09-14-09)

Well, we've been given another option. When talking to my supervisor about what was going on with daycare, she asked what it would take to keep me working for them. She would not be able to replace me in 2 weeks and they really needed me to stay. I told her that it would have to be a schedule that we would not need childcare for so I asked if I would be able to work 4am-8am 5 days a week. I would be able to keep my health insurance benefits and could do the amount of work they would me to do. She asked the "head honchos" and after a lot of discussion they decided to let me try it.
So, starting Sept 21 my new schedule will be 4am-8am Monday - Friday. Sounds daunting when I type it out. But I agreed to do it at least until the end of December. To help them out, but mostly to keep my insurance until then. We'll have a couple months to figure out other options for health coverage and I'll still get to be home with the girls!
