1st day at work 长假之后

31/10/2009 11:05:12 PM

Coughing, sneezing, running nose... my reaction to returning to work after 4 months well spent at home with my two little ones.  I have chosen an easier life by going into part-time 9am to 4pm, which is not a cheap decision, both in terms of money and career prospects. And I was smart enough to start with a short week, returning on a Friday. However, my body still cried out the violent rejection of work.. maybe the airconditioning at work place??

 

Leaving behind my tender baby, actually I was able to concentrate on my work and be fully obsorbed once I stepped into the office. It was only so hard to leave home, seeing her innocent smiles, not realising that mummy is leaving for the whole day. It was only so pressing to go back, cannot bear any delay in the commute after I knocked off. I logged off my PC at 4.15pm, waved goodbye to my colleagues, standed up and murmured to myself 'If I couldn't go off on time for the first day, I wouldn't be able to do it in any of the days to come. I must stick to my gun' . It is damn early for anyone working in the building. I still see daylight on the way, rarely in my worklife in finance.

 

I hope I can get well before the long week starts. :) I will adjust well, being a wonderful mum and maintain my work quality.

 

四个月的产假就这样结束了。我发现我原来是有做housewife的素质的。只是情况不允许。据说opportunity cost太高。我的两个宝贝已在酣睡，我拖着鼻涕在享受一个人的清静。莫扎特的音乐是放给月儿听的，俗俗的妈妈也跟着欣赏一下。

 

月儿这两天大有长进，可以把两只手放在胸前，做作揖状，好像在拜托妈妈抱抱。也会从平睡翻去右侧，妈妈睡在月儿的左边，月儿会回头看看妈妈，灿烂地笑，抬起小腿，转向右边，仿佛害羞了似的！

 

瀚今并不知道妈妈上班了，早上妈妈是偷偷走的，晚上又回来的比瀚今早，偷笑。
