First day of freedom
Yesterday was my first day of freedom, and it was weird, I just didn't know what to do with myself! It was the day I had been waiting for, and suddenly with all this time on my hands it was uncomfortable. I think you get accustomed to stress, and so used to living with it that when it's gone you suddenly feel at a loose end.
I expect this feeling to change very rapidly though, but I'm completely surprised that I didn't completely enjoy my first day off.
Actually, these two days are the most valuable, as today is Devon's last day at fulltime centre for the year. Then he'll be home with me for at least 3 months, so my busy life will return. It will be nice to be able to put some time into being a mum, but I remember that it's also very tiring. It's good though, I didn't get enough time with him last holidays, since I started summer school on January 8th (I think) this year. I don't think the teachers actually realise it's his last day, I handed in the form that said he was finishing today, but I believe that probably went straight to the office. Hopefully he will be back next year, but if I don't go back to Uni (even if I just try and find a part time job or something) he may not be eligible to go to his daycare anymore... I have no idea.
Chances are that I will be back at uni next year, that's the way I'm leaning.
So anyway, yesterday was spent wasting time on the internet (damn you facebook and your time-wasting abilities!), and I spent a wee bit of time on Guitar Hero 2, which I haven't played for months. I don't seem to have got worse over that time, but I'm still stuck at the same point. Then I picked Dev up and took him to a park we hadn't been to, which has a long slide down a hill, but it turned out to be nowhere near as long as the one up in Corstorphine. Dev still had a great time, but I was SO unimpressed by the smashed bottles and broken glass by the bottom of the slide. Some people are just so inconsiderate.
Today I plan to do a whole lot of not much and enjoy it. :)
