try not to miss me too much

some of you might have noticed already that I am not posting with the
frequency of the last few months... yup, I started to work yesterday.

it has been harder than I thought because this weekend I started to
develop a sore throat/cold that I think Sofia has too - she is not
crankier than usual, but she has been sneezing and her nose gets
stuffed, poor thing, and of course she cannot blow it yet!

besides that, she decided to add an extra feeding at 2 to 3:30 AM which
does not help much either... I have been taking the early shift at work
- thankfully we both have flexible schedules -

anyway it is just for a few days since my mom arrives on thu AM and will
stay for several weeks!

to make it On Topic, I can say that at leat I managed to finish her
quilt this weekend, which only needs the label (Mariposa Sunrise it is,
DH and I both agree! ), as well as my border for Melissa's miniRR so I
won't miss the deadline! now, as to how other quilting projects will
progress, I have my doubts...

We don;t care how often you post, just keep in touch. I hope you feel
better. You might even bring home more colds and stuff in the beginning,
because you have a whole new brand of germs to battle. Hugs, Linda

You will eventually get a handle on being mom, quilter and working out of
home person and wife and .... its a tough balancing act and sometimes
something has to go to make it all fit. ... I vote for tossing housework out
first .

I don't understand? You mean because I've not been working for 3 months
and thus not exposed to what is out there?

believe it or not my crazy mother is dying to do our housework!
she feels bad she did not get to do our windows during her first visit
when Sofi was born! she actuallt tells me things such as "I am going to
dust all your shelves first" and "we are not going to go out too much,
right, I want to stay in!" )

I am an idiot, but since the neighbour has been watching Sofia in my
house for 4 hours a day since I started work Monday, I make sure
everything is clean and neat before I leave!

BTW, anybody know how much you pay to adults babysitting infants? Is it
area dependent?

Best of luck with juggling the new baby, the new job, and your old

I noticed! I was surprised at how few posts there were :-) Take care of
yourself so you can fight away those nasty germs quicker.
