Isn't that crazy! Is this what my life has become? No time for the stuff I used to really enjoy - like posting on the blog.
This is kind of how a typical week day goes for us now:
5:30AM - Jamie up. Gets ready for work
6:10AM - Jamie gone to work
6:15AM - Jenni up. Gets ready for work
6:55AM - Brandon wakes up. He gets changed, dressed and a sippy cup of milk
7:30AM - Jenni and Brandon out the door. Brandon dropped off at day care
8:40AM - Jenni arrives at office
3:30PM - Jamie is off work. Goes to pick up Brandon
4:00PM - Jamie and Brandon home. They play and make dinner
6:00PM - Jenni home. Eat dinner with Jamie and Brandon
6:30PM - Brandon goes for a bath
7:00PM - Brandon gets a sippy of milk
7:30PM - Brandon to bed
9:30PM - Jenni and Jamie to bed
Repeat for the rest of the week.
Somewhere in there we get groceries, throw in the laundry, pay the bills, etc etc. Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining about our life I'm just surprised at how little time in the day there actually is.
I miss spending time with Brandon. I miss mat leave. I miss hanging out with my mom friends. I guess my adjustment back to work is going to take longer than I thought.
Hi there Jenni,
ReplyDeleteIt's EARLY Saturday morning here in KTown. I have a cold and I should be sleeping. But my nerves might be getting to me. Tuesday I am off to work for the 1st time in over 4 years. Full-time hours. M-F. The 1st week will be easy. It's the 3rd month,the 4th month and so on. It's the days that James has a concert at school that I miss, or when a co-worker acts worse than my 4 yo at home that I know I'll be craving my 'old' life.... those moments will pinch at my heart. C'est la vie, we mommy's know that but it doesn't make it smoother.
Peace and love,
joanne
