Whining

So I have been trying to be more consistent about posting, but the work week goes like this: I get up before 6, get E's daycare stuff ready and me ready for work and drive the half an hour in. Then I put in my 11 hour day (with lunch) and drive home and sometimes pick up E. I get home between 630 and 7 where we then do baths, dinner, a little play and readiness for the next day and usually bed by 830 or 9 (hopefully. Even if E doesn't need the rest, I do!)

I'd love to sneak Internet time at work but not only is it an offense worth termination, but I'm rarely at a desk. So .. Here we are. My days are one reason I can't wait to go part time. My days off are filled with all the things I can't get to during the week.

So, part of the problems I've referred to that I needed help with have resolved themselves. E was having a horrible time with daycare, and we had a lot of pressure from certain sources. We were trying to decide if we should move him, but he must have popped out of that phase!

Work is tense for so many reasons... many of them acknowledged by department heads and directors with a promise that we will get better. It's a nice promise, but the stress from that (and some team stuff) isn't cake.

Anyway.. There's my rambly story told via my break on an iPod app.
