Summer Day 59

Getting tired and ascared of going back to work. Although we will be starting fully virtual, we, the teachers, may be working from the school building. I don’t actually mind this, although why even bother to risk it quite frankly? I am concerned about professional development–will they be providing the space so that we can social distance properly? But I am also nervous about my own stamina at this point. With both boys I worked to the bitter end, past my due dates. I like to work. I don’t really like to sit around. BUT I was already working (winter babies), not coming off of summer vacation with only a few weeks to go. And like the clothing situation…I probably only have like 3 things that I can wear (between fitting and being school appropriate), but I have little to no interest in buying more maternity clothes this late in the game. Whatever, these are silly problems. All will be fine. I am also getting scared for the actual birth giving part…while I do not want to be induced, I am glad not to go late. I am really hoping for a “small” baby, 9lbs or under would be amazing!

Gratitude:

  1. Baby boys
  2. Baby bun kicking and grooving
  3. Summer vacay is still going
  4. Attended a meeting last night
  5. Progress in recovery
  6. Progress in the house
  7. Bagels scheduled for lunch! Yum!
  8. Decent sleep, considering
  9. Zinnias are starting to bloom
  10. I recognize that I need to work on control and my need to try to control others at times.

Intentions: Conduct the IEP meeting, start the Core Values worksheet for me and for hubs, get some MOVEMENT in today (yoga?), drink all the water.

Affirmations: I am a supportive wife, a loving mother, and a good person.
