So going back to work has been a rough transition. It has been about 6 weeks now. Six very loooooong weeks. Lauren took the adjustment hard and has reverted back to crying at school every day and hanging off me, clinging like velcro baby, every minute we are together. Lots of acting out and defiance. The whining!!!! ugh!
The stress has been overwhelming at times and I feel like it is just now starting to be more manageable. I am getting to work on time, after I peel Lauren off and run for the car then burn rubber down the freeway towards work. Some days we both cry.
I am really enjoying my job and pursuing my career again. I have had a great time getting to know the people in my office. The environment is warm and relaxed. The majority of what I do right now is data analysis for healthcare, project management and NCQA reporting. So I am basically a nerd and I love that!
My health has suffered through this transition. I have gained 5lbs back and I have trouble finding time or energy to work out. I wake up at 5:30am and crash into bed exhausted by 9pm. I usually fall asleep with Lauren because I'm whooped.
Anyway, I am looking forward to being fully adjusted and being able to focus a little more on my goals again. Hope you are all well and gearing up for the holidays!
