Mat Leave is ending soon!!

I cant help but think constantly these days that I will be returning to my full time job very soon.. My husband and I have been trying to figure out how things are going to work out with our son. I have some close friends that I trust well enough to baby sit Luke, and then there's my mom (but I cant really rely on my mom a lot since she's also working). But Mon is a bit more picky than me, he doesnt want anybody else to look after Luke but us as much as possible. He insists that I find a job that would require me to work during the days only, and no night shifts - so basically no shiftings. The idea is: I would work during the day and he would work during the night. I love the thought of it, however, I think I'd prefer to work at my old job, even if we do 12 hour shifts/day becoz I get to have more days off mainly. *sigh* if only I could just stay at home... So far, the solution that I could think of is to work during weekends for now, and be off during weekdays - that would give me enough hours anyways to maintain my status as a full time RN in our unit - and then he can work during weekdays. I dont really like working weekends but that's the only way I see right now that would benefit Luke.
Im going to propose this plan to him and hopefully he would let us give it a try for atleast 2 months when I return to work.
Such difficult decisions! *sigh*

update

Yep, its been awhile again but it's really nothing new..

I've just been busy with life in general - work, Luke and house chores..

I picked up a shift for last Sunday (10.08.08) but i was too exhausted (and lazy at the last minute) so I decided to call in sick.. I had to lie unfortunately, but I had no other choice anyways... I decided to give the agency a call at 3:30am on Sunday morning right after we arrived home from Angie's baby shower.. Nobody pickep up obviously so I just left a made-up story on their voice mail.. God only knows I didnt wanna lie about it but I had to lie... A few minutes later after I made that call I felt a sudden rattle in the whole house and heard a loud bang as if somebody/something fell on the floor.. I looked around the house but everything was intact and everybody was sound asleep except for me.. I thought to myself God must be punishing me for lying, He must be showing me signs of anger... You wouldnt believe how fast my heart was pumping - I was probably having a Vtach for 10 minutes or so! It seemed like nobody else felt or heard it except for me since everybody was sound asleep... I decided to browse the internet for awhile to calm myself after what just happened... A few minutes later I felt like the whole house shook again, and this time I thought I wasnt crazy or hallucinating.. It felt like an earthquake but with an explosive sound.. I looked out the window fearing that one of our neighbour's house was in fire but something else was on fire from a distant and I couldnt tell at that time what it was... I woke up Mon right away.. We could here the sirens of the fire truck, police and paramedics.. In my PJs, Mon and I, along with our neighbours, went to check out what was going on... We saw the blazing fire just outside our complex, the fire was huge but thank God it was quite a distant from us... We didnt know what was on fire until later on that morning at the news on TV... a Propane Facility!!

a Propane Facility in a residential area??!! what was that all about??

Anyways, they had to force evacuation to those people living within 1.6km radius of the said facility in the morning since they were still wasnt sure if there were any more dangers of further exploision... Thank God we were not apart of it all... We feel terribly sorry for those who were so badly affected by this tragic event... We could have been easily one of them but thank God really that we're not... thanks Willa for your thoughts...

this video shows a good approximate as to how close our house is from the actual site...

Luke has been spiking fever since yesterday evening and i'd been trying to diagnose it myself.. I gave him a dose of tempra and his fever went away.. I already knew that he was cooking something but didnt feel the urge to go to ER just yet since he wasnt in any distress and we actually had an appointment to see his pedia later this afternoon.. However, I woke up at 3am today and found him shaking in fever *my poor baby* so i decided to take him to Sick Kids ER.. Mon was working last night but good thing he was able to leave to take us to the hospital.. I wasnt panicking at all for the most part except when we got to the ER, Luke's fever had gone up already to 39.7C.. I was afraid of convulsion, but luckily we were already at the hospital and the nurse gave him a tyl sup right away.. the resident assessed him right away but couldnt figure out what questions he would ask, he kept going around in circles asking about his eating habits and vomiting episodes... i was close to snapping out.. my gut feeling told me that Luke was probably having either tonsilitis or UTI but I didnt say anything becoz I could be wrong too... So after that whole conversation about Luke's eating habits he decided to report off what we talked about to his senior resident... since he seemed alright except for the fever, we knew that he must have some sort of infection somewhere.. they decided to test his urine at the end.. they had to catheterized my poor baby, but he didnt cry surprisingly.. the urine dip showed that he is likely to have UTI so he was put on anbx for 10 days... he must've inherited the UTI from me *sigh*
oh well, im sure he's gonna get better soon, especially now that he's on anbx.

Nevertheless, the UTI hasnt changed much of him... he's still the usual naughty, super-duper active and devious boy of mine, LOL! he knows how to climb down our bed now *yikes* he's more talkative than ever, he can say "mama" "dada" "brrr...." "grr..." and some other stuffs.. he makes funny faces when u ask him too... he knows how to distinguish me from his dad and other people.. he can stand on his own for a few seconds now.. OMG he's learning so many things and so fast i cant even keep track! LOL!

+ + +

anyways, this update has been super long.. i need to wrap up.. so much more house chores to do..!
