A New Chapter?

I moved this weekend with the beebs, Steve did not. Back up. Let me clarify, Steve moved us- I somewhat helped, and G spent the day being waited on hand and foot (literally) by Gramma. Steve is living in our place until the semester ends. So last night I spent my first of 21 nights alone. It was cold and it was kinda lonely. Only 20 more to go. Hopefully less if you dont count the weekends and Mr S comes to spend them with me :) Anyway, I got everything moved in and somewhat settled. We get our storage unit next week so I can get some of this clutter taken care of but so far- it is great. I think this will be a great place for us for the next year or so. Today was my last day of mommy freedom I guess you could call it. I am starting my job tomorrow. I went for a run and ran some errands.... all things I will be able to do once I start working- but on a different time table I suppose. Thoughts....

• Excited- one because it is a new chapter in our lives, two because it means we are that much closer to being in a career- we meaning Steve, and me being his sidekick who takes care of stuff at home. And three because I get to be around (sick as they may be) people,- dont get me wrong, I absolutely love being with my little sidekick 24/7, but this will mean getting more social interaction and feeling like I am helping others.


• Nervous- I get anxiety leaving the little one for 2 hours. Not sure how I will adjust to leaving for 5 hours at a time. Maybe I will just tell myself its better than 8 right?!


• Grateful - for the wonderful women who are giving up so much of their lives to help us out, to be able to spend time with their grandson and grateful they will be able to have a strong bond and relationship with this little guy. He is one to know- seriously, I am so lucky to not only know this kid but to have such a strong relationship and bond with him. He is my favorite part of the day. And I am grateful I will be able to share that with these fabulous ladies.
