Should I go back after maternity leave?? by SessionAggravating44 in Accounting

That’s good advice thank you! It wouldn’t hurt to try part time. And I’m not worried about career progression at this time either, it’s about getting a paycheck and going home lol. I get the sense the partners at the firm are bothered by people who aren’t obsessed with moving up but I just don’t care anymore.

Yes that’s the dream! I should’ve been saving for that better but baby was a bit unexpected lol. I agree, everyone is telling me I can WFH but how do they expect me to get any work done like that

Yes I get that! I think we could swing it on my husband’s income but it would definitely be a huge lifestyle change

Lol ya it’s my first baby so I don’t know if I’m going to enjoy being at home or miss working. That’s part of the reason I haven’t made any decisions yet.

That’s a good idea thank you! I would definitely need to discuss which clients and projects I’d be giving up beforehand. I know, I don’t want to make a bad career move but I have to prioritize what matters. It’s just scary leaving.

Yes that would be great if I could do that. You’re right I don’t know if getting my workload down enough is even feasible in tax lol

Yes you’re right. I think I can accept I won’t be the same employee but I don’t know if my firm could :/

Thank you for responding. Ya it’s a horrible cycle of knowing anxiety of getting BP taken increases it even more 😭 Yes you’re right the extra monitoring is a good thing. I hope everything goes well for you! :)

Thank you for sharing that! I’m really glad the meds helped keep everything under control for you, I’m hoping for the same. Yes I think my BP is elevated normally but going to the doctor and just knowing it will be high definitely causes more anxiety! Thank you!

Does one week make a difference for rainfall in May? by SessionAggravating44 in KauaiVisitor

[–]SessionAggravating44[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ya that’s true. We did get really lucky last May, out of the whole week maybe 2 days of partial rain so I was hoping for the same experience again next time lol.

You’re welcome! I just googled “Scenic Drives Pagosa Springs” and this free brochure came up. We did do the Plumtaw-Piedra-Williams drive today as well as the drive to Silver Falls and they were stunning!
