The Great Debate

The Great Debate at our house is should I work full-time or part-time. Prior to getting pregnant with Karli, I was working Monday-Friday 7a-3p and working one weekend per month. During pregnancy I tried 12 hour shifts 3 days a week and worked every other weekend. Being pregnant that got old really quick, as it made me really tired. After maternity leave I went back to working 4 days a week, every Saturday. All of these shifts were/are full-time. Knowing that we are about to get pregnant again, I want to work part-time. Part-time would be 5 days out of every payperiod. Right now I work 8 days a payperiod. I would still be required to work every other weekend, which kind of stinks, but I would be working 3 days less per pay period. I finally have Randall agreeing that it might be a good idea, based on child care for 2 little ones, and a almost teenager. LOL.. The only catch, he wants me to wait until after the next baby is actually born, and then just go back to work part-time. I explained to him that while on leave, I will only be getting paid for about 40 hours a payperiod anyway, so that is how we will get used to the paycut. He didn't think that was a good thing to point out. LOL he actually pouted. So part-time here I come, eventually...

Paul Blart: Mall Cop- My review

Okay so Sunday was Korey's day to go and celebrate his 11th Birthday. He wanted to go see a movie, and go to Stix for dinner. Stix is one of the many Japanese Steakhouses around here, and Korey's favorite restaurant. Based on the movies that are out, he chose Paul Blart: Mall Cop. I was only hoping that the movie would be bearable. I have to honestly say, it was much better than I expected. A great family movie choice. I give it 5 out of 5 stars. It is so funny. It has just enough humor that it doesn't cross the line into stupidity. So many of the comedy movies released lately are just full of sexual innnuendos, or just plain stupid slapstick comedy. Now don't get me wrong some of that slapstick comedy is really funny, but sometimes those movies go overboard. Not so with this movie. All in all it was a great movie.

My Bloody Valentine 3D-my review

Okay so last week Randall decided he wanted to go see My Bloody Valentine in 3D. So Saturday after working, we went and saw it with my sister-in-law and her hubby. Now keep in mind that me and Randall both love Horror movies. Well this movie is more gore than horror really. It does have some really good scenes given that it was in 3D, and it has some good plot twists. I could have done without the porno scene that is stuck in the center of the movie, but covered my eyes until I knew it was over. I don't really understand why movie executives feel the need to throw nudity into almost every movie made. So I give the movie 3 out of 5 stars. It would have gotten 4 if there hadn't been that scene.
