We had a wonderful brunch today; a three courses banquet of mango and sweet potato soup, banana and bacon french toast, and chicken fried chicken eggs benedict. It was a pleasure to be out with my family. We really haven't been doing it enough. We have been trying so hard to get a regular schedule going with Rose and I finally feel that we are have achieved it. The problem now is that interrupting the schedule with outings etc. means Rose is cranky for the remainder of the day. But a little crankiness is much more preferable than staying in every weekend.
I've been spending so much time in the house it has become stale in my eyes, but I have little desire to spruce it up. I think going back to work part-time will be a very good thing. I'll get some space from home me, while getting back into work me. I miss the act of work - bringing in money, being relied on, planning and preparing for a new day. I do not want the demands of last year, but there is a part of me that has missed it. Being a mother brings immense responsibility, yet I want the responsibilities of work as well. Do I want too much? Is the balance that everyone gripes about ever really attainable?
