Back to Work

Today was my first day working again after three months of maternity leave. I only managed to log two hours. Hmm. Not bad, I guess. At least my schedule is flexible. And I got to do most of my work with a baby asleep in my lap.

Thanks! And today was a new record: 2.5 hours of work, a load of laundry and gave the baby a bath.

You have the right idea. Keep a "Got Done" list rather than a "To Do" list. Keeping a running tally of "where the day went" can also be useful.

Maybe in the spring we can experiment with having Josh be a "Mother's Helper" after school once in a while. He will be almost 10 years old by then, and he loves to play with babies.
