My wife and son are set to come home tomorrow. Not 100% confirmed, but the last problem is now fine apparently.
It will have been a total of five weeks at a hospital.
The realization that I could’ve spent the time I had alone better becomes apparent now. It was already apparent, but now I have a very busy day today (in the office for the most part), and then tomorrow too. All that emotional wah wah things are tough really got in the way.
Feelings and love for my wife and child were super strong in the last month, and I’m sure they’ll stay strong, but now coupled with a potentially constantly crying baby, a postpartum wife who may be quick to snap, and a (hopefully not too much) bewildered me.
As my company’s HR, it came the week I need to calculate everyone’s raises, bonuses and confirm the amount of residence tax everyone needs to pay, so I will be doing a little working from home, but only the bare minimum.
So it is go time. This is not a test. Time to shine.
