Discovering what it takes to say "NO" to spending "YES" to saving

It's boy: I am Aunt now

Life is unpredictable. This weekend this assumption proved itself true one more time. As I planned to spend time with my sister, my mom and meet with Budget Mama for lunch, instead something else happened. My sister suprisingly delivered her baby 2-3 weeks early. In fact her baby decided to come while I was on the plane so I ended up driving directly to the hospital from the airport and helped her out for 15 hours to deliver the baby. It is a healthy,cute,adorable baby boy. What a miracle! I am very happy but at the same exhausted (I can not even imagine how tried my sister must be), I really dont know how I am going to handle this week. I will have my last 2 days at my current company and start working for a new company as of Oct 1st, Wednesday.

    Congratulations Chicky! What a wonderful surprise. I wouldn't worry too much about your last 2 days at work. I know you want to do a good job before you leave but under the circumstances, I would be more focused on recuperating and being prepared for your new job.
