We have had quite a lot of things happen recently and honestly our lives are still in flux. Liz took her NCLEX on Friday of last week. Unfortunately she did not pass. She is very upset about this and views this as a personal failure. She had a lot of pressure on her because we need to her to work so that we can pay on our student loans that are coming due. We needed her income. However we do have some money saved up and we might be getting some more money from Karen's estate soon. Liz will be able to take the test again in 45 days or so and then we will be able to reassess her job prospects. However because Alexander is not taking a bottle and we are having trouble finding someone who can care for him on a changing schedule Liz will probably not work until January. This solves the problem with childcare and the bottle and it also means that we will be able to visit our family for the holidays.
Right now my son is banging on my bed with his toy wooden hammer. The interesting thing is that this is probably the least annoying and/or destructive thing he's done today. Those old Looney Toons cartoons that featured the Tazmanian devil and all of his spinning destruction pale in comparison to my small but lethal Lex. - Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone
