I’m back at work. Wow. The first two days were jam packed with emergency things to do so it was fine. I was busy, and didn’t think too much about “my boys” being home. Today’s the first day that I’ve had time to breathe at work and it’s not boding well. And it doesn’t help that Ryan woke up at 4 am and wanted to eat, then I decided what the heck and went to work early… Yikes! Bad idea since I’m so sleepy now it’s silly.
Everyone’s been so nice and so happy that I’m back. This company is all about the people. I’m a little worried to delve into the state of my projects . . . something about going to a warm place in a handbasket. But ahhhhh well. After one convo with a co-worker, the parting comment was “Hey Ellen, great to hear everything is going so well” and my response being “At home at least ….” So we shall see what the workday brings.
It is hard to get back into the swing of things when one part of your brain is wondering what’s going on with the little guy and the big guy. Did they eat? Is it too cold for a walk? Are they playing nice together? Yesterday’s report was the lil guy proceeded to try to “box” (Ryan of the uncontrollable flailing arms) with his papa but was more settled on Tuesday than on Monday. Monday night was a fiesta of the yummiest dinner with sweet potato fries and marinated chicken and rice. Bobby can cook like nobody’s business! He’s the best. It’s such a joy to come home to my guys ….
So many other pressing things to do too, like xmas shop, and visit our new mommy friends. And yet you find me conked out on the couch with baby Ry just chillin’. The best is when the entire family cuddles up together (ever mindful of Belle not trying to sit on top of Ryan) and we just sit on the couch posed like a studio picture. Makes me laugh. And for all of us to sit still for that long is amazing. Things are things and I’m sure most folks understand….
Anyway – you can contact me at work. Please. Anyone? well, in 15 minutes, as I’m off to pump! ha ha …..
