I've been back to work for over a year now, and I'll have to be honest... it took almost that long to get in the swing of things... I've went from partime to fulltime to fulltime but part at home. Since the end of December, I finally felt all the knobs come into place.
And then ds was sick for two weeks with a wicked stomach virus and work blew up in my face (I'm a mfg engineer, so when a 3.5 billion mfg plant is stopped cold for things you own... It's hard to just stay home while the kid is sick). So for two weeks I hung in there... home in the day with ds... worked evenings/nights.
And then it was all over... but it really wasn't cause as ds lost ~ 4lbs... he was pretty intent in gaining all of them back... for the last two weeks he's been waking up at midnight... "I hungee" Oh why oh why did I ever worry about him talking?
I had thought I had caught up on my sleep this weekend... but so far this week, I've paid the wrong credit card, realized I paid the wrong credit card last month (in the beginning of this fiasco)... I could go off on a whole post why credit card companies are so unhelpful... $14.95 to pay over phone? 6 days to sign up via web?
Oh well... I guess dh will find out the hard way in his hour long commute when he can't buy gas
I've forgotten either my pager or work id -- major pains in the butt to forget -- every day this week, and somehow managed to get to day care one day with out shoes for ds and without his mittens (I know it's May... but he still wears them a major crisis. Plus I've got a bday card in front of me that it a month late for my best friend in the whole world who I haven't talked to in three months.
And I have to go to my inlaws this weekend for sil's baby's baptism. I'll have to hear over and over again how her baby just wasn't getting enough milk bfing cause he wanted to bf more frequently than every four hours. So now peace in the near future.
GRRRRRRRRRRRR. Peace love and charity... Peace love and charity. peace love and chartiy.
