You gotta be wise

Listen as your day unfolds, challenge what the future holds, try and keep your head up to the sky. Lovers, they may cause you tears, go ahead release your fears, stand up and be counted, don't be ashamed to cry. You gotta be, You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold, You gotta be wiser, you gotta be hard, You gotta be tough, you gotta be stronger You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm, You gotta stay together

Ronald Reagan

"Abraham Lincoln recognized that we could not survive as a free land when some men could decide that others were not fit to be free and should therefore be slaves. Likewise, we cannot survive as a free nation when some men decide that others are not fit to live and should be abandoned to abortion or infanticide."
~ Ronald Reagan – Abortion and the Conscience of the Nation ~

sigh

really, Vinny, really?

He had signed up (without even mentioning it to me) that he was starting online classes Aug 30th. Gee. Thanks for telling me. My issues were, as follows;

He should wait until he gets laid off so he has more time to focus on it. He is going to need a lot of time, patience and help. We have none of the above. Well, I can help him, but I am on my last semester and don't have enough free time. or any.

The whole money thing. We have none during layoff.

....and the most important one.

He will HATE it. He randomly decided to do Medical Billing. HELLO?! For anyone who knows my husband even the tiniest bit, will know that he will HATE sitting in a cubicle doing medical billing. He is a people person. Duh.

Then this morning I was like fine. Just take the prereq's and you can figure out the rest later. Start in August. I will support you, but won't have a lot of time to help you because of school.

then, BANG. He cancels everything and says it's because I am an unsupportive wife. After I tell him to go for it. Repeatedly. What the hell?

not to mention. He makes it sound as tho my reasons for wanting him to wait FOUR months were unreasonable. FOUR months. and he threw a FIT over it. FOUR months is all I wanted him to wait. Until I was working, and we had a little extra money and time. I don't want him to be stressing working 60 hours a week and doing online classes when he hasn't been in school in 5 years. I was thinking of him.

I told him to go for something else. Like an xray tech. anything else. something that will not make him miserable. He just jumped into this (with the help of his friend who is the administration person or whatever at Devry college) without even thinking about if it is what HE WANTS. Just got all excited about it and didn't think "will I like sitting at a cubicle typing on the computer (which he doesn't even like computers all that much) for the rest of my life?" he didn't. but I did. So now, everyone thinks I am unsupportive and don't want him to do anything with his life but manual labor and blah blah blah. Sorry for thinking about what would benefit my husband. What he will not HATE to do. Having him go during layoff so all he has to focus on is school.

but, silly me. I was just being an unsupportive wife.

needless to say, we are not on speaking terms.
