Who knew I had it in me??? I guess this is a milestone of sorts... 400 times I have sat down and had something say, sometimes prolific, sometimes fodder.
I made it through an almost full week of work (gotta love stat holidays) and I am gleeful that it is friday and I get to go and pick up my baby. I have turned in to one of those people that notice babies, and I wistfully stare at them, and wonder how mine is doing without me at daycare. Letting go certainly starts early! Things are coming back to me, even if I have made a few minor mistakes. I can't believe how much I retained from the year off, especially since I really didn't give work much thought while I was off. Catching up has been bizarre - more like, WHEW, we are so glad you are back, where have you been??! Sometimes it feels like it has truly been a year, when I talk about Brandon or my coworker's kids and they are a year older than how I remember them.
My hours are something to get used to, working a day, then a night, then a day, then a night, then a day. Wednesdays are going to be the day that seems to last forever since I work Tuesday night until 9:30, go home, sleep, and get back to work for 7:30am. I am not complaining, I chose this, I would prefer Brandon to only be in daycare 3 days a week, but it is all about managing my time and learning how to pack a lunch before because I am not firing on all cylinders when I get up that early. These hours are ideal, last night I was pretty stoked because I felt like I was hitting my stride at work - getting work done and it was blissful not having any interruptions. Such a difference from working during the day during peak hours!
Funny how life is totally in the moment and although there are moments that you cherish, it still keeps on moving in a forward direction. This weekend should be a little more laid back - I am going to lay low tonight - Brandon has a bit of a cough and I think it would be good for both of us, and then we have a family do tomorrow. Rest of the time, I would love to get out for a walk in the woods. Gearing up to go back to work it felt like nothing but projects and trying to rush-rush-rush to get things done. It is cool that I haven't even looked at that to do list for a few weeks and nor do I care to look at it anytime soon.
Look! It's 5 o'clock somewhere!
