Waiting for the change
3 month ago when I was still working at my company, I was afraid what I am going to do once I am in maternity leave. I was really worried that I will be non-stop utterly bored. The last thing I could imagine was staying at home. Okay, working was not as easy in the end, with the tummy getting bigger and bigger. The desk was always in the way… and in the end of the day I was honestly tired. But not to work anymore, I somehow could not imagine. But then time passed, my leave started and quite quickly I realized that it’s not so bad after all. I went for naps in the morning, I meet people I haven’t had the time to, I answered endless numbers of emails and I started preparing for our Baby (my mum would probably say, finally). The days passed quickly and pleasantly and I did not miss to go to work, though, I do miss the people sometimes, our conversations and laughter…
As of Sunday, I am done with all the preparations for our baby. Absolutely in time and without stress we managed to buy a buggy, a bed, a changing table and all those small things you suddenly need or think, you might at least. I also did all the stuff that I usually tend to put of:
- like the accounting (usually always last minute)
- sorting in papers until the stable is about to collapse (happened!)
- or sorting out stuff you don’t use / need, but just keep because you are too lazy
And now? Now all that is done and I am left with waiting for a big change, the next adventure in our life. And I am actually enjoying it. I am curious, when it is going to happen and how it will be.
