I've had him for a year and a half and although I will miss the money, and I will miss him, this past week has changed about half of the "missing" into "relief".
He's gotten mouth, bossy, aggressive, and very unpleasant. He purposely makes dcg mad, makes noises that hurt dd's ears, and revs up other dcb to they both get in trouble. Every time you tell him to do something, he gives you this squinty-eyed, pursed-lips look and deliberately moves sooooo slooooowly. Most of this has always been his personality but I could look past it...until he added in some of this other behavior. This past week has just been in-freaking-sane and most of the insanity was on his part.
Plus, without him, I can buy any minivan I want because I will only need to transport 5 kids anytime we go somewhere, and I can get back to doing preschool with the kiddos (doing it with him around was beyond useless, for a lot of reasons).
I'd been starting to think longingly of getting another job because I thought I was burned out on this one...but now I'm thinking that I was burned out on HIM and I can feel the fresh air starting to blow in. This won't feel like a job so much anymore with him gone.
I feel kind of bad for feeling this way, like I should be sadder that he's leaving. But I'd rather be honest about my feelings (to you guys and DH anyway, as far as he and his mom are concerned I will miss him terribly!)
