WHERE WE ARE NOW…..
Well the supply work has taken off at last, just finding my feet in nurseries again. Mark is now doing some agency work and moaning about it, its not what hes trained to do apparently……..
Today I have blitzed the play area and I am digging out the dining room table and sorting Harrys room out to plus doing an OU essay, Will update how I did later.
REGRETS
Its been a long time since Harry was eleven weeks old and I went back to work far to long really, too long of wait there I will be a minute, Mummys too busy to play sit still while I cook clean etc, my daughter has been bottom of the pile for so long and I feel I don’t really know her, I really need to put that right now which I will do by doing supply and giving her a chance to grow with a less stressed and more focused mum you just cant do parenthood without guilt.
7th May 2007
Oh dear I have been hiberated, so I though blogging again would be good.
Well I have handed my notice in and my last day is the 24th May, which is great in some aspects and scary in others, scary because, Mark is bearly working at the moment and his industry is so flat he will have to look at agency work soon very soon.
I know I can work at least a dual qualification in secretarial skills and early years education means I am likely to get work, but even if I have to pack apples into boxes, I will still be better off that the three pounds an hour I am earning at the moment.
I am also hoping to work three full days nursery supply or evenings doing general agency work so I get lots of time for Harry. We are falling through days at the moment and I am lothe to admit she is spending time with Daddy in front of the TV while I go look after my mindee I am at the mindees house for thye final three weeks as park of our chimney has collaspsed and work is making it too dusty for baby.
I need with Harry to start introducing stiener in a way that works and is as gentle as possible, she is very highly strung at the mo and does not want me out of her sight, we just need some relaxing time together really.
