Working from home, I did most of my cooking and tried to arrange my work schedule so it’s a lighter schedule

I'm upset my boss is not letting me work from home or take off and use PTO so dh is taking off and he doesn't get paid when he doesn't work

I’m working from home and hired a babysitter for part of the day. Also where I live there are often girls who do erev yontif camps.

Neighbor girl who loves babies will be watching her for a few hours while DH studies & finishes packing. I'm leaving work early but can't miss a whole day.

It's understandable that he doesn't want you to take off erev when you are off the next 2 days. Are you working Friday too? I am and dreading that even more than working Tuesday

I would do that in a heartbeat but I need the money! I can't find a job that will pay me what I'm getting now - so I suffer these days.
