My feet are all messed up after my day in the jail. My feet were getting used to being free or having slippers on all the time, so wearing dress shoes again is making them hurt. I actually have the skin rubbed off of my toe joint (you know, the one on your foot that's just below your big toe?), and Roo tried to pull it off for me this afternoon. OUCH!

Both kiddos are sick right now too. Ian has a sinus infection and uncontrolled asthma which means liquid steroid, inhaled steroid, antibiotics, albuteral, DM cough syrup and then a daytime syrup. Roo has a throat infection which means antibiotics for her too.

I cannot tell you how thrilled I am that I have to be back at work when both of my kids are sick. Luckily I was able to go in at 6am two days so I was out early, and the other days I did a compressed amount of client work and then did the notes at home so I could pick Ian up before his TKD lessons started and then get Roo from my parents.

Things are a little bit strange at the office. I'm trying to figure out who's done the changing, me or them. I am enjoying some parts of being back to work, but the other parts just remind me why I want to be home with my kids. I'm also trying to keep myself a little more "separate" from my co-workers too. It's hard because I like them all very much, but I feel like things may be used against me in some way, so it's safer for me to keep a part of me isolated. I guess kind of like I'm trying to do in my personal life too!
