Wake up, people

I need to be entertained for just a little while longer.

To get things going, I release my confessions from their flame-free haven.  Post your flames here.

    are you trying get full paid maternity leave? I asked for full paid but for 10 of the weeks, I would either be working from home or PT in the office.  I knew it was a long shot but I figured the worse they could do is tell me no.  My company doesn't offer short term disability.

    that would be a pretty sweet deal.

    did i read 6weeks off or 16?  I would be home for 13 weeks, work PT for the next 3 weeks.  So yes, 16 weeks total.

    When I got pg, I thought to myself, "Ali should totally get pg right now; she would have the best maternity leave ever!"  Little did I know...

    You're a better person than me.  I would have slapped her and gotten arrested.

  • I will say, teaching is a good profession when you have kids, I don't have to worry about finding care when they're out of school and stuff. It will be pretty nice. 

    With the girl I kept my cool for awhile. Then I totally lost my temper. I am glad that my para was in the room so she could see everything that went down, she said she never thought my voice could get so loud and firm haha. I don't know where it came from.

  • Those first 2-3 months with your baby is so precious ... we should get longer than 6-8 weeks. And the fact that you're willing to work part-time towards the end of your maternity leave is really great on your part. I hope it works out for you.

    Would you like the task of finding me a job?? That could entertain you for a while.

    I'm currently being entertained by this little website that Mrs.Pink posted.  It's freaking me out.

    But I will definitely keep my eyes open for you!
