Just about one week a month we normally end up with the craziest, busiest week EVER! That’s this week. It’s the longest week of the month. If I could get even one extra hour, I’d feel like I could breathe a little easier. Here’s a snap shot of the week:
· Monday: Work, 15 month well baby visit during lunch. Had a morning meeting that ran late, got to appointment late, had to reschedule. Back to work. Get home, dinner, bath, bedtime. We got this.
· Tuesday: Normal work day. Get home, dinner, bedtime. This is going to be a breeze.
· Wednesday: Work, no lunch break, leave early for Occupational Therapy at 4:45pm. OT until 5:45pm, J and I got out for 30 minute run…. (Someone had the brilliant idea to train for 15k…oh wait, that was me!)….. Grocery stop on the way home, get home at 6:45pm, Sofia wants to go to bed early. (Since when?!)
::Insert toddler meltdown:: …..Mommy warp speed with a bottle (missed dinner) and bedtime story (I have it memorized) combo and down by 7:15. Start dinner. Mid dinner, baby wakes up…omg. Nursing session and she’s down, back to cooking. At some point we ate dinner. It’s only Wednesday?!
· Thursday: Get up early for a Pulminologist appoint. Arrive at 8am for the 8am appointment. Don’t get called back till 9pm!!! Wait for nurse, wait for doctor. Get the Synagis shot….wait for observation (20 min). It should be illegal to make a toddler wait for an hour for anything.
Leave appointment at 10am. Drive past work to drop her off, drive back to work. Work. Hopefully normal afternoon and nighttime. Is it Friday yet?!
· Friday: Work, lunch time appointment for 15 month well baby. Back to work. Home. Run (really, why can’t you just think yourself fit?) Exhale…..
Anyone have an extra hour, maybe two? Bueller???
