Let's hear it.
For me...
Firstly, WTF work. Stop being so busy. I am so overwhelmed. Too much to do, not enough time. And as I've said before, I value work/life balance far, far too much to stay here a bazillion hours a day to get everything done. I just want to play on the boards. I want to cry.
Speaking of crying...
So, the in-laws came in yesterday. And if you'll remember correctly, MIL wanted to watch DD the rest of the week. Well, I gave in for today, she's going to the sitter tomorrow and DH will be home on Friday so I was feeling okay about it. Fast forward to yesterday when I got home with DD and she saw MIL for the first time since January 1st. Cue the tears, and terrified looks. A couple of things I think are in play here...first being that DD hasn't seen the in-laws since right after Christmas. So she doesn't really know them. Secondly, I'm sensing that she's starting to have a bit of stranger anxiety. Not a good combination! MIL tried holding her, she wasn't having it. So all night last night I was freaking out about today. I wrote out a ton of directions and talked to MIL last night about everything and DD's little quirks.
So, MIL knew i needed to leave at 6:45am this morning. Fast forward to 6:30am this mornign when FIL has to go upstairs and wake her up because she's not even awake yet. Then 6:45am rolls around and she's still in the bathroom. WTF WOMAN! So at this point, I'm freaking out because I need to leave for work, AND because I'm leaving my baby with this woman who is not far from a stranger to my baby.
She finally comes downstairs and I hand DD over. Fussiness ensues. Not full on crying. But she clearly was not happy. MIL distracts her with a toy so I can finally walk out the door at 7am. FIFTEEN minutes late thanks to this woman.
And now, here I sit at work. A nervous wreck. A hot mess. So much to do and get done but all I can do is worry about my poor daughter.
Someone please send hugs my way. I need them! Desperately!
