I wish, I wish, I wish

That I could go back to work. I feel so smothered sometimes. I'm PMSing, but dammit, sometimes I just want to get away from the house. We've been talking about me going back to work, part time, when Zoe goes into preschool, but I'm kind of wishing that I could get my dad to babysit and go back to work now. An old neighbor of mine works at my local grocery store, and is like a step below management, and told me they definitely hire majorly part time staff, and especially since I'd want to be an opener, they'd love me, since no one wants to open. He said to keep him updated, and, whether it's in a year for preschool, or soon, to get out of the house, he'll put in a good word. I wish childcare wasn't so damn expensive here, because I would love to go back to work. I'm getting wistful thinking about working at a grocery store, guys.

I'm sorry monkeybabe . I understand. I love my work days and am trying to get another teaching gig, and also some more playing work. Now that our kids are a bit older I think a lot of us would like to reenter the workforce!

It's so hard to SAH full time.

Dude, I get it. I hope you can work something out soon!!

I feel you. I hope you can get something worked out soon! What has really helped me is running or walking after H gets home. Just being outside alone, helps me not feel smothered. But I also wish I could work. We could really use the money, but there's no feasible way for me to, at least any time soon.

I can definitely understand where you're coming from - some days I drop H off at nursey school and think "he's your problem now!"
