This week has been a whirlwind. I’ve had 4 interviews for one job position in 4 days. Whew! Yes, after a year home with my wonderful boys, I’m making my best effort to get back into the work force. Life changes and needs must have. So back to a double-budget household it is.
I don’t find out until Monday if I got the job for sure, but it’s so weird to think about being away from my babies 8 hours a day. *sigh* I waited tables while I was pregnant with Thing 2 and Mike stayed home with Thing 1 in the evenings, but I was rarely gone more then 5 hours. Okay. Sorry for the pity party. It had to happen sometime. At least I’ll be able to leave the Things grandparents instead of day care when our work shifts over lap.
On a happy note, these onions are scrumdiddilyumptious. Throw them on a good steak and a pile of fluffy mashed potatoes and all your cares will go away. And have a glass of wine. That helps too.
