And no, I don't mean sex toys

I'm talking good luck vibes, prayers, good thoughts, well wishes

After months of pinching pennies, budgeting and re-budgeting, and agonizing over the decision, I've decided to cut back to part-time hours at work.

This is something I've been wanting to do ever since having my son....but that I never thought we could afford to do in a million years, especially with hubby still with a year and a half in school (thankfully being paid for through a government grant). But, he's been so encouraging and supportive and has been working like a mad man this summer so that we can have some money put away to help us through the school year (God, I love that man).

So, this afternoon I meet with my supervisor and workforce analyst to hopefully finalize things. If all goes well, I'll keep the overnight hours I love but with minimal hours to keep my benefits (Blue Cross, RRSP's, life insurance, etc), starting probably mid-August.

I'm so utterly terrified and excited at the same time
