All about Joey & I :)
Joey & I have been together for over 5 years & it's been the best, hardest, and amazing 5 years!! Our whole marriage Joey has had 2 jobs to provide for us. We bought a house in 2013 after not quite 2 yrs of marriage. We've always lived a life of luxury in my opinion. I never didn't have anything I couldn't have or couldn't afford... Joey made that possible. I've been staying home and not working since I was pregnant with Alleah in 2011. He always made everything possible. But I like to think I make it possible too. I've been raising kids all on my own each and every day while he's out working 2 jobs. It's been tough & I've had my moments of calling him crying of being defeated. He's always been so positive thru it all.
We hit kind of a rough patch when Joeys plan of buying Chem-dry resulted in the owner "screwing" Joey over.
But we got thru it. Joey jumped back in the game & found a job that would help us stay on our feet. We did live a little tighter then we were used to, but I am truly grateful for such an amazing man who doesn't think twice before providing for us.
Then... Joey got laid off because of lack of work. So we were at it again. Joey did what Joey does best and found another job to keep us going.. this time I even looked for a babysitting job to help more. & I am so glad I found one & been able to help Joey out and lighten his load.
Finally, we thought.. maybe school is the answer. Joey was TERRIFIED not just because of the word school... but the fact that we'd have to get rid of pretty much every income coming our way and get into alot of debt. Joey couldn't get passed that.. our whole marriage he'd been working like a crazy person so it just didn't seem like in joeys interest. He was excited for school at first & just kept getting more and more worried about leaving us and not making any money what so ever.
He made me a deal... if he didn't get the job he's been wanting then he'd go to school. almost never has openings like this... so joey tried so snatch it up quick. It also helped he has a buddy working there doing what Joey will be doing soon. So I agreed to joeys deal. I want my hubby happy.. how could I not?? So we waited the process & finally 3 weeks later Joey was told to put in his two weeks with his current jobs.
I am extremely happy Joey will get to see us more often. He will be making more then enough for me to quit babysitting.. (if I wanted) & see his family more.
This job came right at the time we needed & we couldn't be any happier.
School just wasnt the answer I guess. But it will be there when he decides otherwise and I'm more then okay with that.
I'm done babysitting in May before this little man comes. Then I'll start again in September if I feel like I can handle it... 3 kids sounds pretty intimidating. But I got this :)
With all the trials and hardships I am so proud to call Joey my husband. We've been through so much together & I feel nothing but love & respect for that man. He's also a wonderful father to these little girls & he can't wait to love on our little man.
I got lucky finding him. :)
