everybody work

[electricsoup]

so this tuesday, i went back to work.

it was, at risk of sliding into the hyperbolic, heartbreaking.

i miss her sweet little face every day, all day. i thoroughly enjoyed my leave, perhaps too much, and coming back was nothing short of a cold and hard reality that we are slaves to our jobs, and to our lifestyles. i would love to throw it all away

Different situation, but I hated, hated, hated my job when I first took it. I was laid off and found this offer fairly quickly. It was a good group but a bad communte. I went from a large group of collegial, chatty, working together folks to a small group of everyone working alone folks. I wanted to cry and run and quit after the first day.

But I stuck it out, and in time it was the best thing I ever could have done professionally on so many levels.

I know it's not the same as leaving your babes at home, but if you told me then what I feel now I would not have believed you.

Maybe give it some time so that you aren't so reactive. If you still hate it after a bit, moving out will be good for you. At least you'll know you gave it a try. :)

da'www... i know it's hard. twice as hard now. :(

like your icon... "just breathe."

take it one day at a time and if that's too hard, one hour or one minute at a time. just know you can do whatever you set your mind to. why? because you're awesome, that's why.

I'm sorry you had to leave her and her sweet little face. It's sad that so many parents have no choice.

Are you working full time?

and seeing my icon makes me a little bit proud :)
