Well, here I am. I am at work. Hubby is at work. Reagan is at daycare.
I spent the better part of the weekend trying to decide exactly how "okay" I was with going back to work. I really enjoy working. And in all honesty, I am really enjoying sitting at a computer again and doing stuff. I missed it. I knew the hardest part was not going to be the work or the catch up or the getting back into the swing of things. No, the hardest part was going to be walking out of the door of the daycare, getting in my car and driving away.
And it was.
I almost cried. Almost. But I held myself in check.
I'm not going to write an essay explaining to all of you why I went back to work. There are so many opinions on working moms, and I have certainly already been judged by many. I have seen the disapproving and questioning looks when I tell people I am going back to work part time. All I have to say is that I love my daughter very much and she is well cared for while I help support our family.
Work seems to be much the same as when I left. In fact, in ways it seems as though I never did. But there will be adjustments too as they get used to me being here on Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
Each Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday, you will find me at home playing with the CUTEST baby EVER!!

Welcome back to the working world, Jean!
I'm sure it's hard to leave Reagan, but at least you can work thru each day knowing you'll have the next day off to be with her. And remember, a job you still love after 5+ years is a keeper.
