New Beginnings

posted by Jen | 5:23 PM

I am writing this on my brand new laptop! I got a Dell Inspiron. It's not fancy, but it is new and runs quickly. The only thing that's annoying me is that it came with Windows Vista, which is trying way too hard to help me set up.

Halfway through my first week back at work part-time, I think that things are going well. I'm definately happier getting out every day and contributing to our nation's space program! Even though I miss Carina the whole time I'm at work, that's less emotional stress for me than the cabin fever I had at home.

I'm having some growing pains with the day care. I think Carina isn't getting as much sleep there as she does at home. I think maybe they're getting her up and changing her every time she stirs in her sleep. She's exhausted after being there for 5 hours. Hopefully, I'll be able to get the ladies that work there to go more to the schedule we have her on at home.

She may just be exhausted because it's her first week somewhere new. Anyway, hope you figure it out.

wait, i thought the idea was to exhaust the baby so they would sleep more at night! :)

.. no worries, though, you'll get the new day care routine worked out, everything is still new...

Actually, exhausted babies don't sleep as well. But, the real problem is that if I work a full day, I'll get home at around 6:00 PM, and she goes to bed between 8:00 and 9:00. If she's not sleeping at all at day care, she's going to end up napping for the entire time I'm home to see her, which isn't cool.

And, suddenly I understand how working 40 hours a week doesn't really leave you enough time with your kids.

Maybe. I think I see how sleeping 18 hours a day doesn't leave you enough time with your parents.
