And I don't. The set of twins I had that were trouble makers have been gone since last Friday. I thought for sure with them being gone I would start loving my job again. Because I'm back to my one set of 3 yr old twins. And I just don't. I constantly think of all the things I could be doing instead of being 'stuck' at home.
I hear "hey Heidi" at least 150 times a day...from the same kid. They want my constant attention, because that's what they get at home, while I still have my 3 kids here.
I had heard the parents as teachers teacher is quitting this year so it's available. I've inquired everywhere I need to so I can find out more information. I was going to work that and do the daycare until my youngest daughter starts school in 2 years and then just go to the PAT after that and quit daycare altogether, but the more I find out about PAT the more that's all I want to do. I want to give up daycare completely.
Of course, if I did that I would get the guilty conversation that I get from dcm. I tried getting a part time job at the hospital for evenings that I would only have to work 2 a week about a year ago when our insurance ran out (dh quit to become self employed) so we needed insurance, that's why I applied. I had no intentions on quitting daycare. I got the third degree from her...the fact that I would have 2 jobs, my husband would have cover me for a half an hour, on days that I worked, what makes me think he would want to do that, never seeing MY kids (yes this was on HER list), I would be tired, the list is quite extensive. But the fact that I was doing this for MY family never crossed her mind. It was how it was going to effect HER family.
I'm burnt out. I can't figure out a way to become unburnt
I've tried making time for myself, taking time off, walking on the treadmill again. Nothing is working. And when morning comes I'm dreading it all over.
If you've made it this far, thank you. I just needed to get it off my chest. If you have any advice I'd love to hear it.
