A Week of Constant Motion
What a week! I have been so busy, I have hardly been on my computer in almost a week. Saturday I was out in Newberg at a women’s tea with my mother-in-law, then we had an interview with our new nanny that evening.
Sunday, after church, we helped with the set up for Tunnel Night. Tunnel Night is tonight which we will be leaving for shortly. The purpose of Tunnel Night, is an outreach to the jr high and high schoolers. We create our own haunted house, or in this case dungeon to scare the crap out of these kids. See, church can be fun and cool too!
Monday was my first day to work in almost 6 years! The very first time I have left my kids with a stranger. I was home for about an hour and a half, then we had to pick up Chandlur from school. Then we dropped them off with my dad and went to a wedding. We ran into old friends which was really cool to catch up. Besides the fact, I couldn’t have any ‘adult’ beverages, it was a really fun time. I got to catch a glimpse of the fun me before kids. She gets to come out every now and again. It reminds of who I really am and it’s refreshing.
Tuesday I after work, I had to take a nap. I was so exhausted and not feeling good. We had pancakes for dinner because I just couldn’t be active very long without wanting to puke. The rest of the night, I was lazy and just watched t.v.
Today, working and Tunnel Night. Kevin is going to be the dungeon master/butler guy who ushers them into the castle. I am pretty excited! Our nanny, Destiny, even folded my laundry today! Oh happy day!
I told Kevin that this comming weekend we better not have much planned. This mama needs a break.
People keep asking me how it is going back to work. I just tell them, check back with me in about a month. Maybe it really hasn’t hit me because I have gone into the office to help before. The only difference, more adults and no kids. It’s not too bad because Kevin is my boss. Today I finally feel like we are getting somewhere. Hopefully in the next couple weeks we can get into a rythme and I will be more comfortable with the system and insurance process. Thankfully I know some from things he has said before.
I’m off to get ready to leave the house, yet again!
