Working mama?

I applied for a job, well I've applied for a few, but this one is a full time real job.  I have been saying for a while that I would like to work part time unless something came up that really compelled me. My plan has been to mommy nanny once we get settled that way I can bring little man with me.  This job would mean day care, which I am fine with especially considering Husbands schedule.  Husband's schedule changes month to month and day to day so there would be some weeks Little Man would be there full time, but others it might only be 3 days.

My career never really found its footing after we moved to St. Louis.   After we moved I fell down the stairs and had surgery and about 9 months if rehab and the recession started.  Boom!  I nannied because I could get a job doing that fairly easily and I love kids and enjoyed it.  Then I had a baby and now we are here. I did the short version there. 

We will see what happens here in Cincinnati.

Edge of Change

These past two months have been full of change.  With the baby of course, but also buying our house, moving, graduation, and travel.  We are now all settled in Cincinnati.  Husband starts residency tomorrow, so it will just be me and the baby at home after 6 months of us mostly being together.


We had his class over Saturday night to meet everyone.  It is very strange meeting these new people knowing that some of them will become our very good friends and some merely friendly acquaintances (at least for me).  Husband will work with these people intensely over the next 4 years.  All of those things were floating around my mind will we were sitting out on our deck having get to know you conversations.

I am of course over analyzing the situation, trying very early on who will fit where and what our lives will be like.  I need to relax and let it happen.
