Working with the baby is fun to me and it is wonderful to see that she learns something new every day. My normal working day looks like this:
I start at 8.30am and then the little one I have breakfast. Then I change her diapers and we get ready to leave the house for her classes. Tuesdays we go to baby yoga, she has a Music Class Wednesdays and Thursdays/Fridays she goes to a Waldorf School playgroup. I take care of a pretty busy young lady :D After these activities, we usually go shortly to the playground. Then back home I cook lunch. In general the little lady eats a lot of vegetables, meat and fish - so very healthy :D Then she is taking her nap, which is usually around 2.5 hours. After the nap we play a little bit and then go again to a playground or we have playdates. By 6pm I prepare dinner for her and then I am off. A standard 10-hour day for little me. The first weeks I will work a lot of overtime because my employer's have so much stress at work. More money for me, but yeah, I just fall exhausted into bed. Despite all the work it's just mega fun working with the little one :)
After such an exhausting week, every person just ones a relaxing weekend. Yes, I hope that I sometimes have one :D So far, I had a lot to do on the weekends because I'm stuck in Bethesda during the week without a car. So all the to-do's need to be moved to the weekend! Friday night my boyfriends picks me up and on Sunday evenings he brings me back to Bethesda. The first weekend JT and I just drove around for us to look at apartments. Fortunately, we have finally found one two weeks ago :D The basement apartment of the house where he lives now *haha* Last weekend we finally moved downstairs into the apartment. But now I am living only on weekends in our apartment, because I'm still on car search :/ Most of my time on the weekends I spend now at car dealers or banks. Currently, even with no great success, but maybe this weekend will change it.
Regarding university, I couldn't start yet, because the rating company needs still to evaluate my bachelor's degree from Germany. Well, that means to wait now and then I suppose I can start in the spring semester.
How the rest of my week looks like, you guys can imagine. But what will this weekend be like? On Saturday I have to go to the driving license office in order to get my American driver's license. Then I have to open an account for the Federal Credit Union because my visa allows me to open one there. Then we have to clean JT's old room and I have to pick up the rest of my moving boxes. We are getting a futon sofa from is sister and then we wanted to go to IKEA to buy a nice dresser. Currently, most of my clothes are flying around on the ground. And then I wanted to buy a Halloween costume this weekend :D any suggestions? Last year I was Little Red Riding Hood :D
