Shiny Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 I am going back to work tomorrow!! Haven't been at work since breaking up for the 6 weeks holiday last year as I took the full 9 months off for my maternity leave. I am feeling quite upset at leaving my beautifully baby Poppy (although she will be home with her dad). But more than anything I am feeling nervous!!! I have been in the job for 9 years, and having this time off has been great. Just feel like it is a long time since I have been in the saddle!!! May take me a while to get my confidence back.

Good luck Shiny - it'll be great! Your setting must be pleased to have you back! And Poppy will have fun with her dad and be really pleased to see you at the end of the day (daddy might be shattered, though!) Let us know how tomorrow goes.

louby loo Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Good luck for tomorrow, it will be hard - but try and enjoy it too.. Poppy and Dad will be fine.. xxxxxxxxxxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dublinbay Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Good luck from me too Shiny. Just don't tire yourself out too much - are you back full time? It will be nice for dad and Poppy to have some time together but I know the feeling of leaving a baby, even with sometone who will take the best care of her. You'll be fine though. Don't forget to let us know. BIG HUGS!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JacquieL Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Best of luck for tomorrow. I think that you will find it is like riding a bicycle and you will slip back into the job easily feeling that you have never been away. Have a wonderful day.

Rea Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 I think we all know how you're feeling about leaving Poppy, but there's no-one better to leave her with is there?. Nan's love them to bits but give too much chocolate and grandad lets them play in the shed Hope it goes well today shiny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beth1 Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 I hope you had a good first day back and didn't miss Poppy (lovely name) too much. Whats work????? No only kidding I have a whole month off work including going away, who planned that? Not me! BUT on the other hand I have been very busy sorting out pre-school ready for my trusty deputy to take command until I return. Beth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shiny Posted June 3, 2008 Author Share Posted June 3, 2008 Talk about being thrown in at the deep end!!!!!! Got to work early this morning, thought I might need time to get back into the swing of things. First day back and working 2 sessions back to back. Got a message from the supervisor to say she had to have an emergency dentist appointment and would be late in, could I step up from deputy to supervisor until she was able to come in!! :rolleyes: :unsure: Morning session started, supervisor called to say she wasn't feeling to good after dentist and could I be supervisor for both sessions!! It was manic!! I seem to have forgotten just how busy it is with 27 children especially when 12 of them are rising 3!! Session went well, although I did 'sort the paintings' at snack time when I quietly went next door and shed a few tears as I missed Poppy so. Afternoon session went really well. Children really motivated, extra time for PE as hall was free for unexpected 1/2 hour etc. It was wonderful!! :wacko: Got home to plenty of Poppy cuddles, and she started crawling allthough only backwards!! Bless!! I will spend the weekend moving everything up 3 foot!!! Just thought I would let you all know I really appreciated your support, it definately boosted my confidence!! I got back in the saddle and survived!! Now I must lay down as I am completely shattered zzzzzzzz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Wolfie Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 Oh, Shiny, what a rollercoaster of a day, I'm not surprised you need a lie down! Congratulations on surviving! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emmajess Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 Well done Shiny! Hope today was even better. I remember the crawling backwards thing - hilarious - the harder Rosa tried to crawl forwards to reach something, the faster she moved away from it! Hope Poppy and Dad are having lots of fun too.
