HELP!!

Advice please!!! to work for $7/hour and find a sitter or to stay home. I dont even think thats enough money to be worth paying a sitter. I got a job though, at Lane Bryant, they want me to start next Tuesday. Mostly working nights and weekends w/ one daytime shift per week, so about 5 days a week just not a lot of hours a day except for the one daytime shift. I am so unsure right now. I’ve started to get a job so many times and I just cant manage to get the little money I’ll actually bring home to outweigh the joy I have w/ my job as a stay at home mom and wife, nor do I see my being able to enjoy being a mom and wife if I we never get family time once I go to work. I think I’ve made up my mind but I hate to let down another chance to maybe make some money, even if it’s not much at all. Any ideas?????

    Just my two cents…but when you add up babysitting, gas, work clothes, plus the “cost” of time away from your family, the money isn’t really worth that much. I think your happiness is much more important!

    I agree with Cheryl, but you have to make the decision. And, I think everyone’s situation is different.

    I have a neighbor that makes about the same thing I do, but she has to pay a babysitter and for gas (work is 45minutes each way!) …I honestly don’t see how she makes any money.
