Staying Home

***Note: In case you missed it, this post is a year and a half since the last post. Just wanted to point that out real quick. Carry on!

So I was laid off. My firm closed and, being 7 months pregnant, I doubt anyone wants to hire me right now. The plan for now is to stay home for a few months, get ready for baby, due in February, and then enjoy the time off till May.

Monday was my first day as a Stay At Home Mom!! I had my To Do List, my Meal Plan, goals, dreams... I was sick as a dog! Mark and I picked up a stomach flu over the weekend and oh my gosh! It laid me out for 2 days. I spent most of Monday sleeping it off.

But today is better! I've been productive! I've worked on chores! I even have dinner in the crock pot! This week I think I will focus on getting each room in general order so that next week I can (hopefully) get to the details, like washing windows and floorboards.

Will did his part too. While I picked up his room he grabbed the box full of all the clothes from his floor and trucked it to the living room. Then scattered them all liberally about. Luckily one of us takes a nap (I lie, I'm so about to take a nap.) so i was able to pick it all up again. Being a stay at home mom is made harder, I think, by having stay at home kids.

So wish me luck transitioning from full time employee to around the clock mom.
