Getting ready to go back to work

Somehow, almost a year has passed since I waddled out of my office carrying the last of my desk decorations and headed home to get ready for Tabetha to be born.  A whole year stretched out in front of me, and it felt like it would be so long!  There were many things I wanted to do.  (some of them even got done!)

Now I'm in the throes of getting ready to go back.  So far, I have:

  • arranged a meeting with Tabetha's daycare for next week to discuss her gradual entry the week after
  • made a doctor's appointment to get a prescription renewal before I go back, and ask about a couple things
  • got my work email password reset, and sorted through my inbox - all 42 pages of it!
  • ordered the lightweight stroller for getting her there (hehehe ;o)

I still need to:
  • make sure I have extra cloth diapering supplies, since I'll need a stash at home and a stash at work
  • buy bras that don't unlatch for easy access
  • make sure I have enough clothes to wear, since my old work clothes are three sizes too big (yay me!)
  • try to rearrange my dentist appointment for a day that isn't my second day back at work
  • fill the deep freeze with homemade meals to ease the transition to working mom
  • notify Service Canada I'm going back
  • get my bus pass reactivated
  • teach Tabetha to use a sippy cup
What am I forgetting?  I'm sure there's something!
