And now we wait...

About three weeks ago my cardiologist told me that she wanted me to be finished work by 30 weeks so that I could rest more & get my ticker in better shape for delivery. So, I picked this past Tuesday to be my last "official" day at work. Our company was planning a night at Woodbine, so I thought what a perfect last day of work. Work during the day, have fun at night & then rest appropriately the next day. Well, it didn't exactly work out that way for me. A project that I have been working on required a few more last minute changes than I was counting on so I went back into work yesterday. I didn't mind too much at the beginning of the day, but by the time I left I was quite snarly. You see, my boss was kind enough the night before to announce to everyone that it was my last day & that she wished me well. So of course on Wednesday when I am back at work, everyone asks, "I thought yesterday was your last day?" Not exactly the words you want to hear over & over as you are trying to wrap things up & get out the door. So if any of you are reading this & found me to be rude, you have my most sincere apologies.

For me, I knew that I was not completely finished work on Tuesday because I planned on keeping my laptop to work here & there from home until all my projects are wrapped up & could be in contact when needed. Technically I am on sick leave &/or vacation time until mid-July so I also planned on taking a couple of half days here & there with my team to be sure I left them everything they will need in the next year (ha, as if that can all be planned for!). But my continued "work" time was to be set at my pace & so my mood was dampened on Wednesday when it turned out to be a full work day. Like leaving work early, that was not my plan- so it took me awhile to get out of my funk.

But then I came home & got Sydney who was in a great mood so she lifted my spirits & then Brad came home from work with these beautiful flowers for me which lifted my spirits even more. Especially when he remembered that I love a bouquet of all white flowers. Thank you very much.

So, now what do I do? Well today I am not touching any work, but going out to buy a couple of things for Sydney's new room & some Father's Day presents. Other than that? NOTHING!
