Satisfaction

The Following Circumstances:

  • D's receptionist had to take her son to get surgery today.
  • D having a FULL schedule because it was the last day we were offering free massages.
  • A willing friend to watch my oldest two.
  • Me not having worked outside the home for 5 1/2 years.

Results in:

  • Me going into the clinic for half a day
  • Scheduling appointments, collecting payments, answering the phone, manning the front desk...
  • An incredibly deep feeling of validation and satisfaction

*sigh*

Wow . . . satisfaction gained from WORKING? You're nuts.



Just kidding, I know what you mean. Sometimes it's nice to have a change, and I'm sure it's nice to get out of the housework mode for once! Glad you had fun.


P.S. I want a free massage. You got any hookups?

Sorry Fig only if you come into the clinic.We would TOTALLY hook you up!

I might just show up at the clinic... could I use Fig's massage since she lives too far away to use it herself? ;)

The Mom thing is the most important thing you'll ever do and the most satisfying, but MAN! sometimes going to 'real' work is pretty cool (and usually easier!) =)

Yeah I think working outside of the home is lots easier than working at home. Sometimes I miss working outside of the home. Butg if I did that, I'm sure I'd miss being at home all the time. Sounds like you had a great day!

Cool! maybe you can be his full time receptionist once your kiddies start school! I bet you did great :)

Sounds like such a fulfilling day-ahhh I miss getting all businessed up in the morning and heading off to work-of course all I wanted to do when I was doing that-was stay in sweats all day and stay home-be careful what you wish for! I would miss my babies way too much to go back-but I know what you mean!
