Well, I've finished another week of work. The transition of stay at home mom to working mom is complete, however, still not easy.
Max's transition into daycare has been rough - so many germs - and therefore, so much sickness. It's been making me rethink my daycare strategy and see if I can find a nanny. I interviewed (along with my friend Anu from work because we would share the nanny) a woman last night but it wasn't a good fit. Just like daycare, it's actually hard to think that anyone would take as good of care of Max.
Weekends have been wonderful - I get to see his smile all day, I get lots of hugs, lots of kisses and lots of reminders why he's the sweetest baby!
Training has been tough. I had grand plans that I would fit everything in, with maybe just a little less volume and unfortunately that has not been the case. My efforts are definitely lower because by 7:30 or 8:00 I just don't have much gas left in the tank. I've been worn out by the end of the week so a friday bike or run is missed because I actually fall asleep on the couch (not my MO). But the weekend workouts have been good, and hopefully I'll start to get stronger during the week. I miss being is great shape and having the energy to kick every workout's A@#!! So if you have any extra energy please send it my way!!

Personally I think you are in great shape, fantastic shape really. I think it is just hard to see because you are in a different routine and a different place in life. It is an adjustment period. It is time that workouts become quality NOT quantity. I know you, and I know how hard you work. You will adjust and you will start feeling like the strong, in shape and positive person that you are!
