I'm home alone with a list of things to do, to keep me busy.
But, instead of tackling the list, I'm pacing the hall. Eating a cucumber.
I can't focus.
I never thought this would be easy, but I didn't expect it to be this hard.

It will get easier. It will. Believe that. Especially once you have work to focus on. And then, because of your awesome advance planning, you will be less stressed about daycare and be able to focus on getting back into your job.
Meanwhile, want to meet for coffee tomorrow morning?
Awww, hang in there girl! Like Shawna says, it'll get better. No fun though, I totally get that.
One thing you might be surprised with when you go back to work is how good you feel about yourself when you are forced to get up and get ready in the morning. I wasn't expecting that, but it was nice to feel like myself again instead of feeling like a dirt bag (me not you). In fact, I think some new clothes might make that transition even easier ;-)
And if you don't feel like doing that list of chores, just don't do them. You'll be busy soon enough.
Oh dear -- pacing with cucumbers. That's not a good sign. :) I've been thinking about you guys a whole bunch this week. I am wholeheartedly believing this WILL get easier! And your worry and concern, etc. only goes to show just how great a mom you are. xoxooo
