Not thinking about going back to work

Carolyn keeps getting cuter.


I haven't been thinking about going back to work, but feel like I ought to be thinking about going back to work. I've been a SAHD for a year now and I'm worried about having a gap in the C.V. However, any employer who would consider taking time off to be with Carolyn a bad thing I probably don't want to work for anyway. Consequently, I'm going to return to not thinking about going back to work and focus on other things like going to Costo after Carolyn wakes up from her nap.
Top 5 things about Costco:
#5: When I miss standing in line from having lived in NYC, I can always find a long one to stand in at Costco.
#4: The ice cream bar dipped in chocolate and covered in almonds for only $1.50. I'd easily pay $3 for it.
#3: It reminds me of my brother who loves going to Costco more than anyone I know. Here he is using a sled he got from there.



#2: When it rains the good folks at Costco wipe down the shopping cart.


And the #1 great thing about going to Costco:
If you forget to feed your kid that day, there are plenty of healthy free samples for her to eat offered by Senior Citizens in hair nets.

Hey Cory -- cool blog. Good reading during my work day (now if I can just figure out a way for this work to vanish, all will be perfect). And as always, kudos for going the SAHD route. You're a richer person (in the important ways) for doing so.

A little bit of news on our end, in case you haven't already heard, is that we are expecting a boy in November. Yeah, she was pregnant, but in the "quiet phase" of her pregnancy, when you guys were down here. Now she's getting a little more obvious (it's hard to hide much on her frame), and we're out of the danger zone, so we're public with the news.

I will continue to work, though. I'm kind of a hypocrite that way.

Good to see that you're back. As someone who is officially in the process of transferring from a SAHM to the workforce (just doing it the loooong, slow way via school), I can tell you to stay at home as long as you possibly can. It has been my true dream job. There must be plenty of ways to keep your hat in the ring until you're ready to go back.

By the way - Carolyn is SO CUTE! We must see her soon. Are you going to OTD?
