Hi Ho Hi Ho, it's off to work I go...

It's been about 4 1/2 years since I "retired." I had worked almost 5 years for XenoTech in Lenexa and quit my job to focus on other ventures. Fast forward to today, and I have two kids that are wonderful, but deserve more than I can give them at home. Brooklyn needs preschool! I always wanted to be a stay at home mom, but realized this past year, that I'm not quite cutting it.

Here's some examples. For starters, I hate how the constant demandingness (spell check is contending that's not a word, but I'm leaving it in) of the kids is wearing me down leaving me with little patience most of the time. Not their fault, mine. Secondly, I can't tell you how many times a day Brooklyn asks to watch TV. OK, she's bored, I get it. Lastly, my email checking is out of control...wondering every 30 minutes or so if there is an adult out there that has something to say to me. I think we all get the picture here.

So, on the Aug 25th, I will go back to XenoTech on MWF's servings as an executive administrator to the CEO, CFO, and COO. I will be working with a great group of people and am quite looking forward to it. I'm sure there will be days I'll wonder why I ever decided to subject myself to the early mornings and daycare routines, but I really feel I'm doing the best thing for our whole family. Besides, I'm using it as an excuse to buy some new clothes! I doubt swishy pants and running shorts will be acceptable in the office.
