I came back from our trip to my parents' place with a mission. I finally feel that I can accomplish things, that I can knock items off our ever-growing list of things that need to be done, yesterday.
Tomorrow I am finally going to tell my work that I won't be returning. I called a girl who recently did the same, although she'd been in there to visit a lot before she told them. And she told the president in person. She advised me to do the same. So I called this morning to talk to him and arrange a meeting tomorrow but he's in France till the day before I'm due back. So that means I talked to the HR guy tomorrow instead. That should be ok. I had been waffling so much about going back to work that I won't be lying when I say that I'm sorry to tell them so late into my mat. leave but up until a little bit ago I was planning on returning to work on July 3rd.
I made an appointment to get my car fixed up because the list kept growing of things that needed to be checked out on it. So my car goes in Thursday morning.
And I bought a travel guide of Poland and a huge detailed map of Poland and I've started hashing out our trip. In detail. With hotel reservations I hope. That way we have our time blocked out of when we are going where and when we will be in Tom's hometown with his family.
LB is being an absolute PEACH. She's been sitting happily playing with her toys while I've been making those phone calls and writing this blog.
I feel good. I think this could turn out to be a great day, even if it is cloudy and rainy outside.

It is such an enormous pleasure to have days when the kids behave and you get a bunch of things on a task list taken care of.
I'm glad you are having a day like this to offset some of the down days you've had recently.

no joke
thanks phil. i'm glad too. and i was sure i turned word verification off because i moderate the comments now... thanks for letting me know (indavertantly). :D
cloudy rainy days are nromally the best for me.
YAY for the good days. There will be more coming! Now that LB is getting slightly more independent, you'll be amazed at what you can get done. Although I must admit, I do miss the days when all Katie and I did was snuggle.
As for the work thing, you may want to think about writing a letter to the President thank him for the opportunity to work for the company, etc. You never know when you may have to call for a letter of reference.
I'm going to be emailing you soon in response to your comments you left for me.
