I'm BACK and I would like to get back to blogging. Curious about what I have been up to?? Well, here goes...
I gave birth last September 5 and now have a cute little baby to take care of. I also have the whole house to clean and the hubby to tend to. What makes it even harder is the fact that my baby is exclusively breastfed. I have to nurse every 2-3 hours and I only get to work when he is sleeping or when my husband is there to look after him. It's not easy but we are coping. My husband and I have been making adjustments to make sure the baby is well taken care of and the house is kept clean. Of course, apart from all that, we have to make sure we have plenty of time left for work. We are not back to working full time yet but we will get there. We just need to make good use of our time.
Here's how we do it...
When I'm nursing the baby, my husband busies himself with the house work. When he's done, he goes online, gets to work on the spreadsheets and finishes what he can then he gets his turn with the baby. I get my turn to do the house work and when I'm done, I go online, work on the spreadsheets and finish what I can. It's an everyday thing.
If there is one thing that concerns me, it's our finances. It's a bit tight right now but I think we can manage. Again, we need to make a few adjustments. I am the one in charge of the weekly budget. The hubby is in charge of the bills. Now if we could just stick to the plan...fingers crossed, everything will be okay again.
