So today i was lamenting to myself that it is Sunday, the last day of a 4 day weekend and I am not really ready to go back to work tomorrow. I started wondering what that was about because actually i love my job. So I thought, am I sick of this job, would I rather be doing something else, would i rather stay home etc. etc. I thought about it and knew I would get bored if i was home all the time (did that for a number of years when the kids were little and I am not a great homemaker).... so what was this about???
Then I realized it is because difficult child is not here!!!! I am able to truly relax in my own home, enjoy being here, am not feeling lots of tension (some normal teenage drama with my easy child but nothing major). I just want a few more days to relax, read a book etc.
When he was home I could not wait to get back to work on Monday mornings and now that I don't feel that way I was wondering what was wrong with my job!!!! Nothing, just that I now enjoy home!!!
So I have to remember this when the question comes up by him about coming home!!! I feel better and am more relaxed when he is not here!!!
