Going back to work after 8 YEARS!

Yesterday morning I was pushed up and tucked in the right places as I put on my business suit for my interview. It has been 8 years since I have had to wear that costume. I had forgotten how long it takes to look the part in wearing grown up clothes. I shook, shimmied, and did my cardio workout with my shape wear. To tell you the truth, after all that work getting put together, I looked stunning. ;) Franky, it has been a very long time since I dressed up so much for anyone. 


I was nervous as heck about joining the work force again. I don't know what to expect. Did the outside world become space tech like the Jetsons? They have that blue tooth thing and gigantic I Pads now. So what am I getting myself into?!
I came up with the Top 10 Reason's to Hire Me a while ago and deemed it appropriate to share today. In today's market, one must sell themselves for hire.




10.) I will be on time always because I am up bright and early. My six year old is an early riser and is up at 5:00 am everyday (even weekends).

9.) I would be extremely enthusiastic because I am not used to being around adults and it is a pure treat for me. I am almost “honored”

8.) I have an extensive language skill. I speak not only English, but I am FLUENT in Baby-nees.

7.) I would be a great asset to your Team because I am not afraid to get my hands dirty! Currently my position title is “Designated Butt Wiper”. (And I have been pee’d on a few times as well)

6.) I can pull an all nighter! At my current job I have stayed up many times with my associates caring for them. Even when I have been sick myself.

5.) I can bring creativity to your team! I have been hands on with art projects almost daily for the last six years!

4.) I'm immune to WHINING.

3.) You won’t have to worry about my personal and professional appearance. I only shower when I leave the house!

2.) Did I mention I am cute?

1.) I am the ICON of a Desperate Housewife. So if you don’t hire me, I will Google you and stalk you until you do.

As I said before, it has been 8 years since I have "gone back to work." (I say this loosely, as I work very hard at home being a mother and running my household.) Looks like I'm gonna have to change my the title of my blog!........ The Obnoxious S.A.H.M. (stay at home mother) because I GOT THE JOB! No longer will I be a slave to Pop Tarts and the Price is Right, I will actually have to shower in the morning, because I have somewhere to go.

I guess this means I have to shave my legs?

The teachers in the car circle are going to be shocked when I don't pop out of the car in my pajamas and slippers anymore. Does this mean my blogging days are over? Nope. I'll still be here, just with more material.

  1. Wow, I feel like you are describing my life. I bought my "costume" today and will be primping all morning for my interview on Monday. I've been at home for 11 years and never thought (when the kids were younger and not in school) that I would actually WANT to go back, but here I am shoving my feet into heels instead of slippers and I'm really excited! Thanks for your blog posting!
