I suppose I just thought that when I went back to work it would be for different reasons. Like, because I wanted too, or because I had a really great job that I enjoyed lined up. <BR/><BR/>I think part of my problem is that my mother stayed at home with us, so I never experienced being in daycare. In my brain I know that the girls will still love me, but there's a part of me that can't help thinking that they won't, that they'll love the person they're with most of the time more. Irrational, certainly, but I can't help it. Hopefully my fears will be put to rest once I start working, even if it is just pumping gas on the days Ian is home.Jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01592312983008232386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11256222.post-51491666607883446612008-08-28T10:24:00.000-06:002008-08-28T10:24:00.000-06:00Goody is right, Jen -- getting out of the house wi...Goody is right, Jen -- getting out of the house will at the very least put you in contact with other human beings. A lot of people make their best friends through their work, after all (assuming that you work with someone, like at an office). Considering how lonely and cut off you've been feeling, surely this could only be a good thing?<BR/><BR/>You will, after all, still see the girls at night and not just two days a week. Ian does it, right? My only real point is that while you might like the idea of raising your girls full time, doing so hasn't really been working for you either, has it?Emmetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00223723243262289188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11256222.post-24792831756542854232008-08-27T09:10:00.000-06:002008-08-27T09:10:00.000-06:00What I've heard about the recall is that they erre...What I've heard about the recall is that they erred on the side of caution, so the odds are very good that whatever you ate was okay.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11256222.post-64411300884639198132008-08-26T20:22:00.000-06:002008-08-26T20:22:00.000-06:00On the bright side, you get to talk to grown-ups. ...On the bright side, you get to talk to grown-ups.
