So many things to update about.
First things - Adam hasn't been working much at all. Work has really dried up around here, and we have lots of savings but I hate eating into it.
I might have to look at going back to work, which is sending me into all sorts of depression.
Liam's breastfed and I definitely don't want him on formula so I don't want to work more than 5 hours a day. All the 5 hours a day jobs I can find are 5 days a week and Adam is all 'no, you can't work all week', and really, what's the point of being a stay at home mum if I hardly see Liam all week?
And even if I do find this magical job that is only a couple of hours a week, it might not be worth it as it will affect my goverment payments!
I don't know if those mystical 'work from home' type jobs I can do in the middle of the night actually exist. (Well, I know they do if you're a freelance writer or something, but that's not me).
I wish I was good at something - like, I wish I had kept up with my webdesign hobby or something. My SIL will start up her cake decorating business that she can do from home and my other SIL has a successful business making modern cloth nappies. I thought about taking up tutoring again, but when I did with Liam around it was too hard :(
Time to think!
