Yeah, I have chatted with the woman I'll be job-sharing with a fair bit today. She says once I get my head around it I'll probably find it really "pleasant" work, LOL! The downside is that it's 3 days per week, not 2, but I'll deal. Will have to work out childcare because the days are all wrong, but even with all that I feel really positive about it.
I am going to do two days next week - starting on Monday! Eek! But that's mainly just training, observation etc. Then I'll go in on Thursday. Then the following week I'll do three days. But we're still working it out - there's a lot of training and its a pretty steep learning curve I guess. She did say that if I get a brain tumour I'm in the right place - he's a pretty damn good doctor. (He's no McDreamy though, PMSL!)
Congrats Amy on the getting the job
Ahhh McDreamy...yummy yummy....I wish he was the one looking after Aaron.
AFU, I have the referal for the CT which is on the 15th Feb and then seeing the neuro on the 26th Feb at 7.15am . At least by the EOM we will have a better idea on what is going on.
Thanks for all the cyber ladies it really means so much to me.
Nicky, i don't think you've been bragging any more than the rest of us! and definitely not in a "my kids are better than yours" way. all our bubbas will hit milestones slightly before or slightly after others in the group. doesn't make them better or worse. E was slower getting mobile, but has a good vocab, so it doesn't worry me and i'm sure it's the same for everyone. Naomi - if those biatches upset you about Bailey's mobility again, let me at them! B will get there soon enough and when he does, you will be able to celebrate just as we have. for now though, you need to focus on the things he can do in spite of his brace - he's doing damn well!
Nicole - wouldn't it be funny if the neurosurgeon you're taking A to is the one Amy is working for now?? sorry - was the first thing i thought!
AFU - meltdown city last night - think E had a belly ache - has been her normal self today though - go figure!
BG - Good advice, I normally do focus on all the good stuff, but when sometimes some people just have a way of making you feel crap by bragging about their own achievements (or their babies in this case). Luckily my mothers group will just continue with the three of us only, no more visits from these Mums (I dont think we'll be inviting the others back again, I think we had forgotton how obnoxious they were), the girls I see each week are lovely and supportive, and one of the lovely Mums also takes her DD to swimming with Bailey and I. There are only three of us left, but as we will all be working part time, we should be able to continue meeting up and as we are all local, we are hoping our kids go to the same school hahahaha. I hadn't really expreienced the whole 'baby contest' mother before so now I know what others are talking about when they mention competitive mothers - they are innocent babies FFS!
Nicole - Best of luck (and lots of hugs) for Feb 15th and 26th , I hope you get great news, especially as you will have to get up so early - thats one early appt!!!! I hope you are able to enjoy the next weeks and not stress too much about the appt, but as Mums is easy to give ourselves that advice, but much harder to follow it! Oooooh McDreamy - wouldn't it be lovely to have him as your doctor!! I think I'd invent all sorts of medical problems just so he could give me the once over PMSL
Nicky - I had a chuckle at the thought of someone trying to tell you to pipe down - I reckon you'd just laugh at them and keep chatting away hehehehehehe. No piping down required!!
I'm starting to plan Baileys First Birthday, Its only really 2.5 months away and I want it pretty much sorted by the time I go back to work (which is only 4 weeks now arrrggghhhhhh). I need help with some wording on the invites though, this is what I have, but it just doesn't 'flow' nicely, any ideas? BG you have some talent in this area...... its really the last line that's doing my head in A year of precious moments,
of happiness and fun,
Our gorgeous little Rockstar
Wants to celebrate turning one!
