Day Care
So this week Melissa (my wife) returned to work after being off for quite some time on Maternity leave. This means Charlotte goes back to day care for 3 days a week instead of 1, and Spencer to join her. Melissa has started back at work part-time (3 days a week at the moment).
Talk about busy family. What's involved in having both kids at day care? A lot of prep. Make sure you pack their bags and get them organised the night before (and don't exclude yourself either). Gone are the days of getting up, getting ready for work and kissing the wife and kids goodbye. It's quite a responsibility! You know it's almost not worth Melissa working, considering the cost of day care, however the educational and career benefit is huge. The kids learn so much and have massive interaction with other kids. Melissa is studying at uni and working on her career. You don't "go places" if you aren't at work! Work for me has cooled down a little. When I started as team leader for my team it was just hectic, such an epic back-log of work, many demands and expectations. I'm told that I'm doing a good job. The stat's show it, the staff are happier than before, and customers are getting results. I'm not working as long hours as I was when I started, back to normal again! phew. On top of everything that is going on, we are prepping our house for sale. We need to upgrade! bigger please! Still open to building or buying established, in any case, we will get to that bit once we actually sell up. So much going on!
