Need opinions!!
I have an opportunity to go to Germany next month for work. I am trying to convince my husband to take time off work and come with me, along with our three kids. I would have to work one week, Mon-Fri, but I was thinking we could go the Friday before, site see on Saturday and Sunday, he can do whatever with the kids the week I work, and then we could stay until the following Wednesday - so I could have another 4 days to site-see with the family. Because that week is Memorial Day, DH would only need to use 7 days of PTO (he gets 5 weeks per year) and DS would miss 7 days of school.
Umm he's going!! Is he insane! About two years ago my work paid for me to stay in a hotel out of town for two weeks and I sure as heck dragged them along. It was just him and our daughter. They swam at the hotel, went to the park, took naps, went shopping. They found things to do. I'm sure in Germany there will be pleeenty of tourist things to do.
I don't think I'm going to convince him. He really wants to go, he just doesn't want to take the kids, which isn't an option. Ugh!
It's also because of everything else we have going on. We are supposed to be getting the house ready to put on the market. This has already been delayed 6 weeks because his family moved in with us after a house fire (it was only supposed to be 2 weeks until insurance found them a place?). He thinks the money could be spent on moving related expenses or towards the down payment. The flights alone will cost $3-$4K and he says "that's all new appliances in our next house".

Hells yeah! For most people that is a dream. For other a once in a life time opportunity. To throw away that opportunity would be crazy. I would give my right are to be able to afford for my family (kids mostly) to have that experience and those special memories.
GO GO GO GO GO GO GO!!!!
The other reason he doesn't want to go is because we were planning on putting the house on the market next month. I said we could push it back to June.
I mean, this is 1.5 weeks! It's not months overseas! I get we have a lot going on but this is a great opportunity! All we have to pay for is their flights!
I spent 3 weeks there for work in 2013 and he was so mad he couldn't go with me. Now I'm giving him that chance!
DH grew up in Germany (USAF). He has always wanted to go back. ALWAYS! Now I am giving him the opportunity (we'll be in Stuttgart, 40 minutes from where he spent his childhood) and he wants to pass it up?!?!
He's in third grade. I mean, I get it's a lot of school but he has only missed 2 days this year and this is a great experience for him. I would hate for him to miss out because of a week at school.
Who likes school anyway?? Haha! Just kidding. :-)
need suggestions....
So at work we have a drink thief. Any time we put a drink in the fridge it disappears. I swear I know who it is. So far he's taken drinks from everyone that works in the office, we even put a sign to not take anything you didn't pay for and wrote our names on the drinks. The person I think is taking them works out of the office so we never get to see who is drinking them.
Hi
I am into my 15 week now
But since last two days am not having good feeling....I just feel something is wrong inside wid d kid...all my symptoms r too less
Morning sickness is gone....Metallic taste of my tounge is also less....and I feel pain in my abdoman twice or thrice which is very minor though
What should i do i am very confused
Already have gone through 5 scans because of changing gynec
Just feel that untill i hear the heartbeat or see my kid i wont b ok....got sleepless nights


I don’t think we would have been able to move if I didn’t have my stay at home job, we would still be in a neighborhood with our house getting broken into. I’m so thankful and blessed to have found a legit home job so my kids don’t have to go to day care, counting my blessings daily
Hey I’m 26 with two children #myfirstpost
Okay I’ll be real and explained why I joined, I didn’t know I could be looked up or anyone would actually see this post, I was informed someone I know has been stealing pics and I came to look and see what’s going on if any of mine were on there or anyone else I knew. I just typed until it let me post since it was required before I could look around on the app.
plastic surgery
If you could have any procedures done, what would they be?
He said we would talk about it tonight but he's been downstairs talking to his mom for hours. I have to make my decision tomorrow. Ugh. I'm so mad at him.
