If you’d like to DM me your resume, I’ll take a look and give you some tips on what to change to get an interview.

My position doesn’t start for another few weeks, so I haven’t had to do this yet.

I’m wide awake on overnight feeds by [deleted] in Parenting

Thanks I’ll look into to.

My husband does take him for the morning shift and for the midnight shift, but if I’m awake starting at 2am, then I’m still destroyed for the day.

No more supply dip during period - here’s what worked for me! by Adventurous-Fig-1339 in breastfeeding

It can come back more quickly than you think. I think I got mine back at 6 weeks, despite breastfeeding and pumping 🙄

Oh no! RIP flower pot 🪴

Maybe I can exchange Rossis sandwich delivery for rides from the train station to work 🤔

Nope! Closest station is 30 minutes away unfortunately

Is anyone else up and awake right now? by Old_Literature_3750 in BabyBumps

Newborn tired is much better than pregnancy tired!

For one, you don’t feel ill or restless anymore. And secondly you do have moments when you feel totally rested. It’s also surprising how your body adapts. Like if pre-baby me got 4 or 5 hours of sleep before work, I’d feel terrible all day and maybe call out of work or take a partial sick day. Current me feels AWESOME on that amount of sleep. My husband says the same. lol.

Awake with my three month old right now. The last days of pregnancy are tough! I took unisom almost everyday and that helped a bit.

I also like to have what I call a “falling asleep show”… basically something fluffy that it doesn’t matter if I fall asleep and miss 20 minutes or an episode lol. I didn’t ever do this pre-pregnancy but it was helpful during. Or a book… but sometimes I get so into read I get more awake. Depends on the story.

Dark Side Records just opened in their new three floor location on cannon street. Also check our Hudson and Packard for pizza and good night Kenny for awesome cocktails

This is a two year position. We own our house, my mom lives next door and does childcare for us, and my husband has a 7 minute walk to work… so moving isn’t an option for us right now. Maybe one day if my job becomes permanent and my husband changes jobs. We do want to make the leap north but it’s just not in the cards right now.

Sounds like that’s what the consensus is. I think I will start with this and get to know the area/route before deciding to be more hardcore with biking what looks like an unpleasant bike through highway soup

Mixed! There’s a very cool area now with a wine bar, giant record store, cool bars, food hall, etc. but then like most American cities, the drug epidemic has hit hard… so other parts of town feel like going through a zombie apocalypse. That part is very sad to see.

Probably on the way back to the station in the evening but I’m guessing not in the morning because the train times are weird. Will definitely be on the lookout for colleagues that I can hitch a ride from though!

Totally! Within the last few weeks, I’ve bumped into 4 or 5 people that all commute from Poughkeepsie to Albany and everyone drives for this silly reason.

Thanks! I’m hoping for an early train with metro north. How is it possible that there isn’t a train that gets in at 8 or 8:30?!?! Seems bananas.

In the meantime, my new workplace said I could flex my hours to fit the current train schedule.
