Enjoying Life Everyday...

...One Day at a Time

Back to Work

Today is my first day back at work...and I survived the morning getting two kids out of the house.  Well, I got AJ ready, but John took him to school (luckily).  I even managed to get up at 5:30 for an early morning workout.  It's very bittersweet for me.  I do enjoy having a career, but I really want to be home with my boys.  This will be good for all of us, I'm sure.  I have no fantasies that it is going to be easy.  I have a big weakness though, I want/need to do everything perfectly.  I have what you call OCD and a controlling nature.  I don't deal well with others (aka John) doing things because I feel like I do it best.  It's a really bad disorder that causes me stress.  The reality is that you CAN'T DO IT ALL.  I just hope that I do a decent job at it all.  As long as I keep in mind what the priorities are, I should be ok.  Kids first, job second, healthy meals third.  Laundry and house cleaning will have to be a distant forth for now.

I am feeling really sick to my stomach today.  I hate leaving my smiling little baby boy.  I hate leaving AJ too, but I know he will be ok at school--and I know he enjoys it.  He can also speak, Jacob can not.  I know we choose the right place for him, but I just wish I could be with him!  I miss him.

Oh, and I forgot how much PUMPING and WORKING SUCK.  My first work pump session, and someone is knocking on my door.  I have my own office and happen to have no windows to the office on my door, so I'm lucky...but I also have no lock.  HR is working on adding one luckily!
