Ignoring is bliss

So some big changes happening around here with me starting a part time job on Wednesday. I wasn't really planning on going back to work until the summer (part time) leading into full time in September, but I happened upon a great opportunity that I just couldn't pass up. I'm actually really excited about the idea of working again, and 2 days is perfect. The one thing that I am having a bit of trouble with is the idea of leaving my small person. We desperately scoured all our sources to find a home daycare to take us through until we get into our actual daycare. Day care in this city is nuts, the waiting lists are out of control, the price tag is not cheap, but then in my mind daycare is like tattoos, why does everyone always want to find the cheapest tattoo artist? These are the times when quality is much more important than price.

Thankfully Babi is going to watch her on my first day and Erin is going to help us ease her into daycare by watching her in the first weeks. We actually found a woman that I like and I think it's going to be good, but Eeeeeeks. How much do I wish I could go to sleep and wake up in a month when this transition is all over? I have been kind of trying to ignore it, but it appears to be happening just the same.

We went to visit the Papa at work last Thursday and here are pics of that. M loved catching up with her old friend Pilates ball which makes me think I should dig ours out and blow it up again.


She also greatly enjoys that Visualizer screen saver thing-a-majigger.


We had planned to go see the cherry blossoms in High Park yesterday for Earth day, but it was cold and we were tired and walked the entire Junction path to go pick up my bike from the shop. We will soon be geared up with our Wike for day care drop offs and weekend bike trips. That is if it stops wet snowing on us for Odin's sake!
