Two day stress

I just spent two stressful days at home. Frequent calls from work doesn't do justice that I am on child-care leave. Yup, dawter T has been nursing a high grade fever since Monday night.

Pre and I were not able to sleep well as we have to constantly check dawter T's temperature as we are both scared that if it reaches 40+ (which it did!), she might go into convulsion or something.

With constant prayer, dawter T (now with rashes on her body --- I hope it's just bungang araw) is now ok. We're still wary, of course.

Thank you, Lord! Hopefully, the worst is over!

Work was work. Early this morning, I got a call from the ISP of one of our clients that he managed to open the ports that we need to connect Lotus Notes to the outside world. Mid morning, Starlight called and bugged me about it. Told him, we're still working on it and that I am on leave. I will do it first thing tomorrow. Na-dah! He doesn't want lah! He wants it done by today! So, two of my officemates and I troubleshoot. The two of them on-site. Me, remotely connecting while dawter T is sleeping. Managed to get it done. But, not without heartaches. Hmph! (Still seething over it and will probably get it over it after I talked it over with Pre.)

Another thing to be thankful for!

Looking forward to destress tomorrow.

Dress Code

If wearing jeans every day of the week is the gauge for a great workplace, my new job would have a tie with my last workplace in the Philippines. Yes, we can dress down the whole week. I am so thrilled with this prospect. First day was ok. My boss took a picture of me from camera phone and sent this picture in an email to the global team. Oh man! Workwise, I find the team to be so organized and that scares me. After being lawless for a year, it's a big turnaround. When I opened my email this morning, I got almost 70+ mails, and my training plan already laid out. They also gave me a web camera and headset for team web conferencing. (I really need to lose weight now, the camera will add a few more pounds hahaha) Then, I found out that they don't come to work on time and we can leave at exactly 545pm. Woohoo! That's one of the things that were nagging me but I was so pleased to learn that. We even had a 1 and a half hour of lunch time. Hmmm... This could be very...

Confession

Being a Mom.  Sometimes I feel as I am not cut out for it. Too much work.  Too much responsibility.  Too much worry. Worry that Ate T is taking the bus today.  Ate A's tooth is still in there and the new one has already come out.  Baby A has colds and is screaming and wants to cuddle. Sometimes it leaves me breathless. But When I pick up Ate T from our meeting place, I feel so proud of her because she has become independent and can commute.  Ate A's tenacity in wiggling her tooth and she's now toothless, doesn't need to go to the dentist to have it removed.  And, Baby A despite her colds still has appetite and it just feels good to hug her. God has showered me with so much love for giving me 3 wonderful girls.  It feels good being a mommy. Happy Mother's Day to all you wonderful Mommies!
