Supermom

So after running a few times over the last week, it didn't take me long to get back into my groove. It is getting easier, however I think I may need a new pair of tennis shoes because I've had the same ones for about 3 years now and they're starting to not support as much.

After contacting my old job I will be going back working the graveyard shift 10:00pm-6:30 am Friday night and Saturday night, and on call during the week 6pm-10pm. I chose to do this so I can still stay home with Madison, and Matt will be home those nights so I don't have to rely on a sitter. My job isn't very rigorous in the first place, I'm basically just workin' the front desk during the dead hours, so I think I'll be fine (since I'm a night owl anyways). I'll sleep from 7am-12:30pm saturday morning and sunday morning so we can still spend some quality family time together, plus Matt gets plenty of 3 day weekends. It will be nice to have my own money to shop and buy bday, Christmas, and anniversary gifts for my husband. It feels awkward getting him these things when I'm not working because even though I know it's "our" money, I can't help but feel like he's buying himself something.

The thought of not putting Madison to bed two times a week makes me a little sad, but I'm sure I'll get used to it. I'm a very clingy mom if you can't tell.
