It was a bit of a step to actually do this- more than I thought it would be. I felt kind of stubborn about the whole thing. I didn't even really acknowledge last Friday as my last shift. I had my suspicions it might be, but I still wasn't admitting it in my head.
But I have got my letter from the doctor, called my manager, and submitted my application to Service Canada. I crossed my name off from the casual list, dropped off my last pair of scrubs, and told people I was done working. So there you have it.
I know that I was getting too stressed out at work at times. There were not a lot of shifts available lately so it's probably a good time to stop. I don't need to be on my feet for 12 hours and come home all grumpy and irritable to my poor husband. And this baby could be here in 6 weeks.. or earlier! (or later of course, too).
So now I'm at home. Washing diapers, working on a scrapbook, cooking and cleaning and baking and being 'housewifey.' It's a bit of an adjustment, but I was already used to being home a couple days a week from the way my shifts went. I think it might be hard to wait for this baby to come at times, but I'll just have to find plenty to do to keep myself busy.
the scrapbook is from our epic roadtrip vacation this summer. here i am being housewifey in the forest. :) |
