Wow, my first week back to work was interesting - the 2010 Winter Games is almost a year away and CTV is buzzing with excitement. Coming back also gave me a chance to pause a bit and reflect back on the past week. Here's what I learned:
- Beckett loves his mom & dad and doesn't want them to go to work
- I'm really tired
- Beckett thinks 5:00 am is better than 7:00 am (this is new this week)
- Zo� hasn't noticed anything has changed
- Two kids are more work than one
- I'd be lost without my mom
- Black is my best friend until I lose 10 more pounds
- I missed my co-workers
- If I don't write it down I'll forget
- Racing home to put Beckett to bed is important to me
- I barely see my husband
- Our new nanny is an angel
- If I write something down I could still forget
- I can't sweat the small stuff
- If I have to choose between sleep & the gym - I pick sleep
- Balance is still a challenge
- Nothing beats a walk with my kids on a crisp sunny winter day
- I do a LOT of laundry
- I hate making dinner after work
- Hearing my kids laugh is the best (Zo� just started)
I was on maternity leave for six months (leaving two months before Zo� was born) - coming back to work was really easy for me, it felt like I never left and for me, that's a good thing.
I hope your week is going well. Tamara
