Back at work...
Jun. 1st, 2011 09:25 amWell, yesterday was my first day back and it was pretty easy. I'm okay with that...easy is good. Now I need to get a doctor's note for not working the full week...I'll have to remember to not come back on a holiday week...I don't get the holiday since I didn't work the previous pay period and I have to work my full hours...so, doctors note or taking PTO. Yeah, doctors' note is the plan, just need to call them today.
We are still working out what to do for getting ready in the AM. Getting up earlier is a good plan and it worked out okay this morning but I'm still off on timing. Ben wasn't really hungry this morning though I knew he was if that makes sense.
His first full day of day care was good for him and when I got home late he was already fed but fussing. I picked him up and he immediately grabbed in to me, had a big sigh and went right to sleep. I sat with him and butterfly for an hour while mel was at kung fu but the little boy was still kinda cranky. Fed him and he was much happier to have me than the bottles I think and then we headed out to practice so I could pick up my pampered chef order and socialize a bit.
He got a bit overstimmed while we were there so home we went. I tried to give him the left over bottle in the fridge but he wasn't having any of it. I'm much better I guess. Which is okay. Got him in bed by a bit after 10pm and then it was getting things packed and ready to go for the morning. I got into bed at about 11pm and was asleep about 15mins later or so. I got up at 3am and pumped and again had a hard time falling asleep. Very odd that...dunnon why. Then it was time to get up at 530am.
Tomorrow should go a bit better since I wont have paperwork to fill out and a check to write at daycare. So, that will help. I think if I get up ten minutes earlier I can get fed before the boy is up and going and that will also help with things. My goal is to make it into work by 730am. Given that I need to take 30mins out of the day to pump that puts my day ending every day at 5pm...which of course doesn't really work on Tuesdays and Thursdays due to mel needing to go to kung fu..so I will have to pick him up on those days versus mel. So, things to work out.
