To work or not to work?

What’s the hardest decision you’ve ever had to make? Why?

I think the hardest decision I had to make was not returning to work after my first baby was born. We only had one salary coming in and in those days it wasn’t enough to keep us. Husband was doing overtime to boost his salary.

I had signed on as available to work and was sent for interviews by the employment office. I was allowed three refusals and if I didn’t take the next job my money from the state would stop.

I was offered all three jobs and turned them down and then it was decision time. Did I take the job and not have to worry about the money or did I turn it down and choose to stay with my daughter.

I decided to stay at home and be with my daughter. Money was tight and more so when baby No 2 arrived but it was the best if not one of the hardest decisions I ever made.

Well that and having all my bottom teeth out, but that’s another story which you can find in a previous blog.

Happy Thanksgiving to all my American friends. Sorry you have to have Trump as your President.
