the DH is working 14 hour days lately and
i am losing my mind. it is way too cold
out to take the baby anywhere and the only
person who visits is my mom and she
doesn't stay long. everyone is so busy
with work. it's hard to spend the whole
day alone with a 7 month old and then
spend the whole night alone after she's
gone to bed. and he's working this
weekend too. it's finally warming up
tomorrow. thank god.

Wow. I work two days a week, so three days
a week I spend around 10 hours alone with
both kids. I have no visitors and hardly
any friends yet outside of work. I am
getting involved in a stay at home moms
group but they are all super talented at
knitting and sewing and that's what they
talk about.
I just joined the YMCA. They have swimming
lessons for babies and kids and also yoga
for mom's with babies. Are you involved in
anything like that?? That may help a
little. I know it has done wonders for my
mood.
Fourteen hours a day would be so very
hard. You hang in there. Your daughter is
so beautiful.

Up until I started college a few weeks ago
i spent everyday (except Sundays when they
are with their Dad) alone with them from
6am til 8pm. Robbie works long hours and
rarely had a day off. All my friends work
during the day so excpet for baby groups
and them going nursery from pm til 4pm i
am pretty much on my own with them
