The Big Day

Today marks two big milestones in our lives--Tulip is 3 months old today (oh my!) and I am fully back at work, which means Tulip starts "school" today (also known to some as daycare). I'm hanging in there, mostly because I know that she will be in good hands, but I keep adding things to my list of "things the teachers must know or else Tulip will be out of sorts." I know full well that it will take at least a week or two to adjust, and they will have to figure one another out as they go. Can't I just go and stay at school with her? It'd be much easier that way!

As for work, I think I mentioned that it looks like I will be receiving an offer to work for the new company when/if this deal ever closes. The timeframe we've been given to transition will likely be mid-July. I am so very thankful to have a job that I am trying not to be too disappointed that it will not be doing what I'm doing now. It will be similar, but I will probably lose almost all my current customers and have to start over at square one. I won't have any overnight travel that I can tell, so that is a plus I guess. In the meantime, I am supposed to keep my nose to the ground, work hard this month and try to earn as much bonus for Q2 as possible. Given that I will only qualify for a third of that bonus, I have a lot of work to do to get there!

Well, Tulip is waking from her post-breakfast nap so it's time to get her ready for her first day at school. Do you think anyone would mind if I threw some Bail.ey's in with my coffee? KIDDING, of course.

But the bottle of wine in my fridge won't last long tonight when I get home, that's for sure!
