I was fairly rested for my first day back to work despite our scramble to get child care in place. I was sad to leave my girls all day and I missed them terribly. I brought several framed pictures of them to put on my desk so I could stare at them all day.
In a way it was nice to be away and have a "break" from the girls. I have a different set of stresses at work but they can be more manageable. My day started with getting through my emails. When I opened outlook I had 1471 emails to get through. I guess when you are out of work for 6 months, your email really piles up. Luckily our phones had been reset several times at work so I only had 1 lonely voice mail to listen to. So after getting through the emails and showing off the pictures of the girls, I was able to get back to work. I quickly got back into the swing of things and got my first student registered for class. I felt like I hadn't missed a step.
Tonight may be rough as Linda will be tired from her night with the girls and her day at work herself. I hope we figure out a way for us both to get some sleep and we will have Sara back for tomorrow.

Glad your first day went so well, and hope tonight goes smoothly. I'm sure you are anxious to have your sister back and get into your "normal" routine. - Tess
ReplyDeleteI am glad the first day went fairly smooth, I bet it will get easier leaving the girls once you are in a routine.
