Hi Ladies!
OMFG I had no idea how crazy going back to work would be. I've only been working 3 days/ week but since I commute it's still almost full time. Up to now H and I have had one day off a week together, with me working am shifts and him working pm shifts. Not only do we barely see each other but we are so busy trying to get stuff done around the house when we are together that we have had 0 time to relax. R is doing really good with the transition, I'm more sad than he is.
It was looking like H would have a new job opportunity that would enable me to stay home this month but now that's been pushed back to January, or later 
I'm just praying that it's January at this point. I really miss being home with R.
I miss you ladies! I'm trying to check in as much as possible and respond to posts but we all know how that goes. Hope everyone's having a good weekend.
Re: Hi Ladies!
Hey love,
I know it's a tough transition and for me it really hasn't gotten that much better so I'm a bad person to say it will haha
Oh man I was just thinking about you this morning hoping that position would come together so you could leave this month but January will be here before you know it...I'll be praying that he gets it then!
Thanks for the support! I know that to some it sounds naive or that I'm romanticizing being a SAHM but I feel like I've really considered all angles and would be fulfilled being one, at least until the kiddo(s) were in school. I'll definitely keep you posted!
And Nicole- I've accepted that this is just what life is right now but it's not easier! My Mom said she felt torn our entire lives, since she always had to work
