Then Barry told me he had a workshop all weekend...
And we had a dinner out with the in-laws on Friday night...
I find myself sitting here alone on a Saturday night, ranting on my blog.
I have an awesome daughter. She doesn't fuss. She sleeps the entire night. She's usually in a good mood. Last night, she was up 2 hours past her bed time due to the in-laws dinner. I figured she'd sleep in today. No. I figured that she'd nap for at least 2 hours. No.
My patience is thin. Thank goodness she's in bed. I needed some time away from her.
It's days like these that I am glad I'm back at work. I think that it takes someone really special to stay home with their kids. I am not one of those people. I AM looking forward to the summer when I can spend lots of time with Evey, but I know that our days will be filled - going to the pool, visiting friends, going to the country. I won't have to entertain her like I did for a year in the house.
The good thing about babies is that they aren't babies for long.
Everyone at work keeps asking me if it's hard to be away from her. It's really not. I know that she is in good hands. I know that she is getting lots of attention, probably more than if I was home. Why are these people asking me this question??? It's none of their freaking business... Maybe they feel guilty for not being at home, but don't put your guilt on me.
I wish I could practice absolute honesty - a character on a tv show called Lie to Me practices this. So many people would hate me, but I'd feel so much better. In Susie's perfect world...
