i had one girl that i was training with say that she only got 2 shifts the whole summer when she started. i was feeling super discouraged hearing that. i assumed now that my training was over i would sit and wait, and wait, and wait some more for my phone to ring and hear that i could pick up a shift. today was my first day that i could be called and BOOM, i picked up 4 shifts over the next couple months. 2 this week, 1 in may, and 1 in june! sweetness....
right now i'm not so set on getting that many hours because i'm still on maternity leave. the more i work, the more gets deducted (dollar for dollar) from my mat-leave. in other words, i'm working for free. no thanks! i want to enjoy my baby thank you very much....come mid-may when my mat leave runs out i will start to panic, but until then i will enjoy my shifts, learn what i can, and enjoy my time with kingston...my precious little man!
juggling schedules is so tough. i want to see my friends, i want kingston to see his. i want to see my family, and cameron's family. it seems like the only time i get to see my inlaws is when they rush over here to babysit for me! the last few weeks have been great with my family. i've seen all of my siblings and my parents a handful of times...that was a rarity before so i (and kingston) have loved it.
speaking of schedules...the baby is sleeping, the laundry isn't done, toys are everywhere, and dinner hasn't been started. time to get cracking!
happy monday folks...it's a new week! i will try to write a more detailed update of my life later on...
