Back to Work

August 3rd, 2010 at 06:31 pm

I started back to work yesterday. Part time for now. It was still hard leaving baby DS even though it was five hours and I knew he was in good hands. Worked until 6 pm, picked up the kids, had to stop for gas, $60, was home just before 7 pm.

Going back will really limit the time I have to play with the kids, be online with you all, get housework done, etc..etc.. Frown

Work is so inconvenient. Wink

Yesterday was also the first day in the new office building. Trying to unpack boxes and organize supplies and equipment. In the new place it seems we have storage in all the wrong places. The fax machine isn't working yet, no internet yet, something funny going on with the phone lines AND we're out of coffee! Of course my boss in his infinite wisdom started seeing appointments yesterday afternoon! It was almost laughable because nothing is easy to find and everything took three times longer to do. This new building is shaped like an L. Our old building was a square. For proper "flow" you really need the square shape. The new building means a lot more walking until we get stuff stocked at both "ends" of the L.

It will be very nice, and much prettier, once we get everything done. I am thinking that will be a few weeks to put things away and even longer to get really comfortable.

Had a very nice visit with DNiece and even with the inlaws too. Everyone left yesterday morning. Now I have to work on getting my August budget put together and balance the checkbook. I am about 10 days behind with all my financial keeping because of all the busy days and company.

DH and I had a good time at the Giants game Sunday. Beautiful weather and they won! We have tickets for a Sunday day game in two weeks. Going with the inlaws, DD and baby DS.

    I picked up extra work at my beach job. We only have about 5 weeks left before the season ends and I wanted to get all the hours in I can. I was just thinking this morning, I hope my family doesn't feel deprived from me. It will just take a little more juggling to make sure the laundry is done, dishes washed and dinner is on the table.

    DH says they are in a race for a wild card spot. He has been watching, hey they won again last night!

    I always worked outside the home and my daughters are fine. I know work definitely gets in the way of life doesn't it?

    I know the family will be fine. It is me that is missing the home life.

    I really do like my job. Smile
    Go Giants!
