It ...I feel the difference being part-time already. It is so much more manageable. Now, we'll see if they keep my workload actually part-time or not, and we'll see how much I like the bank account. :) But you're right, being a full-time working mom is SO hard under normal circumstances. I can't imagine throwing all the special needs into it, too.Kristahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11705922505565492945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8988524040957212858.post-84824647371675700502011-08-06T14:42:25.003-04:002011-08-06T14:42:25.003-04:00I really do feel your pain (oh that is so cliche)!...I really do feel your pain (oh that is so cliche)! I was fortunate enough to not be a working mom--well, I did work very hard and was on duty or on call 24/7. For the first, oh say, five years, I was exhausted taking care of two healthy little boys. So I know the difficulty when everything is going really well. I recall the joy of having a few hours away to meet friends for lunch occasionally. I remember shutting myself in the bathroom and scanning Time magazine so I'd have something to discuss other than children. I wanted to read something other than Goodnight Moon, Dr. Seuss and the like. If I'd have had to throw a demanding job into the mix, I don't know how I would have done so. I am in awe and admiration of you. Sorry I don't have more to offer!!<br /><br />Best,<br />BonnieFrom the Kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00789641912016566894noreply@blogger.com
