People ask me how I'm feeling during my first week at work and it's hard to describe. I want to say something meaningful about this
vs. this.
But I'm a bit in shock. It's hard to find the quick summary. It's hard to boil it down without over boiling it.
It will be an adjustment, a friend said a while ago, so give yourself time to adjust.
Today Daddy took Luke to the zoo while I worked (and I do get to work from home most of the time). It's a sunny winter day and they had a great time. I got some reading done. I enjoyed the quiet & structure. After nap we played a lot. Then I cooked a lot. A pretty good version of this new life today.
Now it's the weekend. I need to work over the weekend, but it's still nice to have finished a work week. One day at a time. I'm still trying to figure it all out, including how I feel about it. Which another wise friend advised me to not guess ahead about.


I've been wondering how you're doing. Maybe we can motivate each other to manage the work-from-home thing. Which I have a hard time with.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your the nearly-end of your second week! I know this is a big deal. A transition. One day at a time seems a very wise approach. One feeling at a time probably too.
