Work

Ah well, after nearly 5 years being a SAHM I'm getting off my fat a**se and going to work tomorrow!

Looking forward to it but nervous. But it's the right time now. DS will be 5 this year and starting school - we need the money, and TBH I need some adult company that isn't solely about children all the time.

You'll love it, I've been back at work for 2 weeks after taking 5 years off to be a SAHM. It took me exactly one day to realise that I was ready to be back in the workplace.
It is nerve racking but you'll be back in the swing in no time.

Well, had a great day on a course at work. So much to take in. I'm exhausted. Was able to do some networking for my job. It was nice when DH and DS picked me up - I started to miss them in the afternoon. But I'm really happy to have some adult things to do now.
