It's been a while: Part Deux

Yes, it's been a while, but this time I have a good excuse. I HAVE A BABY. I had a baby girl in January and it's taken over with what is left of my life. When you work 4 days a week, have a husband, a cat, and a baby, there isn't much time for anything else. I'm not complaining, but when you work 4 days a week and live for the weekends, the months go by quickly and things are either really busy or mundane.

Some days I miss the old bedside nursing gig. When I worked 3 days a week it was nice to have 4 days off. I actually had time for HOBBIES! Reading, working out, watching movies, scrapbooking, blogging! But I look back and realize all the weekends, birthdays, BBQ, and holidays I missed out on. Don't forget the stress factor as well. I burned out and burned out quick in the PICU!

Anyways, no Tanookie moments that I can think of lately. I'm sure that Hassan could remind me. There are plenty of mommy and baby stories, but I wouldn't know where to start. Noreen is 8 months old now and there are 8 months worth of stories (not including the rest of my pregnancy and delivery) to rehash. Right now I just don't have the energy.

Until then...
