New Carpet for a New Life

We got our new carpet installed yesterday! So Buster now officially needs to get a job so that he can pay us back. Actually, I have officially forgiven Buster for ruining the carpet in the first place and we have moved on. I trust him again. However, if he does resort back to his old evil ways there will be dire consequences.

It’s so nice having carpet that isn’t full of Buster stains. It’s new and clean and I love it. I rolled around on the living room floor yesterday when it was still empty. We only installed carpet in two rooms of the house; the living room and Cayden’s room. Cayden’s carpet matches the rest of the house; while the living room got an upgraded; much nicer carpet.

I took the whole day off yesterday since the carpet was getting installed and because a plumber came to our house to fix a leaking faucet in our backyard. I must admit it was absolute bliss to be at home. I loved it.

I am so looking forward to being at home with Cayden and taking care of him, the house and Chad. I never thought I would be the type of woman to enjoy that kind of lifestyle; but suddenly it’s all I want to do.

I am meeting with my manager and director tomorrow to discuss my return to work options. They both have said to me that they support any decision I make and that they want me to be able to devote myself to Cayden.

Right now, there are 3 options I am going to discuss with them and depending on their input I will have a for sure decision in less than 24 hours and that will be such a huge relieve. Option 1: Work from home. Option 2: Work part time. Option 3: Go to another department and work part time (this has already been offered to me; I just have to accept).

I would prefer Option 1 or 2 because it would mean more money and I don’t really want to leave my department. I am confident that I can work out one of these options with my director and manager. I know they will do anything they can to help me and I am totally thankful for that.
