It's June 16th today, meaning I have ONE more WHOLE week with my babies before I go back to my fabulous and eventful life as a banker. Oh JOY :( bleh. 6weeks of maternity leave is not even near enough. I wish I was in Switzerland where they get 6months, or NZ where they get 3months (i think). BUT NO, 6lousy weeks is all the big US of A can afford to give it's laboring women. I have much to bitch about concerning the 6weeks maternity leave but eh, I don't want to waste my time and blog space because Obama sure ain't reading this. (or is he??? lol)

Anyways, back to the grind in 1week and already I have a budget meeting I have to prepare for. arrggghhhhh. Checked my work email and my inbox is literally FULL. I may have to spend the first couple of days back going through my inbox, reading, replying and purging the unwanted. I just hope for the sake of my dead brain, there's nothing too complicated in there.

Yeah, can you tell I'm looking forward to getting back to the workforce already?..NOT.

definitely NOT looking forward to the high stress levels and the long hours.
I find myself constantly looking online for jobs for 'the stay at home moms'.
Most of them are SCAMS. surely.
BUT I am desperate. Maybe I should start a daycare of my own??hhhmmm..there's a thought, but then again, I don't have the patience to handle 5kids let alone 2. lol. So if ya'll have any ideas, feel free to share.

the good news though is, Mom's here, YAY. She's been here for 2wks now and will be here until NOV. (hopefully dad don't want her home sooner than that). So she is my lifesaver for the next 5 months until I can figure out my next move. (hence the desperado for stay at home mom jobs. Me? a stay at home mom? WOW, there's something for the books. lol)

So much to think about and prepare for.

All this thinking is making me tired and depressed at the same time. But all good, there's a Ted's Bakery Chantilly cake in my fridge that's almost finished. I ate half the cake by myself. haha...Fat cow much? yup, surely.

I hope you find something that's fulfilling and keeps you around your boys hun! Fingers crossed :) oh and BTW what kind of crap is 6 weeks? well I guess it could be worse, you could be in Samoa and isn't maternity leave something like 2-4 weeks? Forgive me if I'm completely wrong lol

WOW...life must've been really interesting the last 2 years - - So as I try to figure out my life for 2020, let's recount from where we left off in 2017, shall we? hhhmmmmm 2018, let's see. I resigned from the bank because I needed a break. 2 weeks later I started a job at the State Capitol. (What can I say - Never say DIE! lol) I was excited for the opportunity to make a difference and affect change in our local communities. Needless to say, it wasn't what I expected it to be and like anything in government, it was all a bunch of hot air and no action. Action-less promises! The system is severely  BROKEN, the Capitol NEEDs Young Blood, we need educated politicians who actually walk the talk, and OMG the procedures and processes are still stuck in the 90's - and we wonder why nothing gets done in government. Legislative session ended in June and so did my short lived career in politics...hehehe. It was honestly NOT worth the headaches and wrinkles. I quickl...

Visiting us today is the fabulous Lani Wendt Young; author of the book that had me started on a sleeping disorder, "TELESA:THE COVENANT KEEPER". I'm sure we've all read it, and if you haven't, now is your chance to buy and be absorbed into the world of Leila & Daniel (and Jason *winks*) Only $5.99 for the eBook on AMAZON . Lani's here for an interview that TEAM JASON's been waiting for. YES, an interview with the hot surfer boy/volcanologist himself while he's here checking out the Pipeline competition at Sunset BEACH and of course visiting one of his favorite fans *ahem* ------ We’ve been hearing a lot about Daniel and I thought it was time that we shine the spotlight on another very important person in Leila’s life…her (cough) friend Jason who is here in Hawaii visiting Jen’s Blog. Jason's too shy for a photo so here is his TWIN BROTHER Hi Jason, thanks for taking time from your busy schedule to join us here on Jen’s blog...
