Not so easy
Let me just say that as much as I would love to be a stay at home mom, it is just not so easy. I really do miss going to work and actually feeling productive. I’m enjoying my time at home, mostly the extra time with my son; and before I know I will have my hands full with a little one.
Work just called me to look for something at my desk, my coworkers all miss me and I miss them as well. Those few times when we joke with each other to break up the day.
Perhaps the perfect mix of both would be working part time, but now a days that is not so easy. Gas and food prices going up at a steady rate faster then ones salary can even imagine. Can you imagine how much you would be making if your salary increased at the rate of gas and food prices, heck inflation alone! Wow! That would be a dream!! I better stop now before I get all political and pissed off, need to keep my blood pressure in check.
So, I am only a week into my at least eight to nine weeks off and I’m having some troubles adjusting. We will see what next week holds.
Oh Mommy, that’s a Chevy…
It’s amazing how our little ones seem to pick up on things and how much their little minds absorb. Feed them with all the knowledge you can now while they are willing to listen to you. My son is only 3 and 1/2 and already can point out the make to most of the cars/trucks out there. I would say he is taking after his daddy as a little car buff. He can point out to you and tell you if a car or truck is a Dodge, Chevy, Saturn, Volkswagen, Ford, Hummer, Toyota and now picking up on the rest. I’m sure one day he will be out doing me and telling me the make, model and year! Yet for now, he impresses me every time we are in the car, he seems to be able to point them out faster then I can. Hey, I gotta pay attention and drive, yeah that sounds good! It will only be time until he starts pointing out those high end Lamborghini’s and Ferrari’s my hubby so loves to look at.
