Well, I'm back to the grind. I must say, I do like my new company and my new job. Very friendly folks. And then I discovered that someone I knew from my former company is also now working here! Too funny!
Izzy did pretty well her first day back to day care. I woke her up ultra-early, and she did NOT cry (she promised me she wouldn't), and she apparently had so much fun at day care that when I came to pick her up last night, she did NOT want to leave. She threw a complete screaming temper tantrum all the way home. Unfortunately, I did not have time to deal with her properly as I had about 20 minutes to get ready and out the door for our GS meeting. I had Mary make herself a sandwich while I changed and checked that I had everything I needed for the meeting (with Izzy whining and following me around the house). Mary and I got home late (had to finish cleaning up and HAD to get gas before work in the A.M.), so I didn't even get to kiss Izzy goodnight. Poor kid.
This morning when I got Izzy up, she said, "Where are we going?" "To day care." "AGAIN?!" Um, yes. EVERY DAY now.
I've only burst into tears twice: during both morning commutes.

Better to cry during the commute than at your desk...? OK, that's cold comfort.
I'm glad she loved daycare! Sorry about the tears.
NWMama: I know exactly what you mean! :-(
You should have said "yeah, you threw such a fit at having to leave yesterday that I signed you up for EVERY day! But it counts as a Christmas present!"
Oh boy, I'm sure it's tough. It sounds like the transition is going pretty well.
