I've been off work now since the first week in December and because isaac was nearly 2 weeks late it seemed like forever for that time to pass until he was born.
Now, here I am thinking the next five weeks are going to fly by. I'm due to go back to work in that time. So I've just dropped LO off at my mums to see how he gets on without me!
We decided to try an hour today so i dropped him just before 12 and I'm buying time around the village until its time to pick him up. So far I've bought him a gift and got myself some chips! I'm now sitting on a park bench eating them and blogging! I still have well over half an hour so I plan to join the library, post a parcel and 'dilly dally' a bit longer before I head back to collect him.
It does feel a bit strange because although I've done stuff before without him I usually leave him with hubby and I go and do something purposeful such as singing at church or meeting with friends for a meal. Never before have I left him for what seems like no reason at all.
Even though it's only been half an hour I do actually miss him and the reality of returning to full time work scares me somewhat. I'm looking forward to thinking in a more academic manner again and think it will be nice to talk to people about things other than our children but I actually feel quite sad that I won't have my days filled with 'mummy fun'. In an ideal world I'd be a SAHM full time but these days mortgages and rising cost of living put a stop to that. So for now I'm planning to go back full time whilst Isaac goes to nursery and Fridays at my mums. We'll have to see how it all goes.
