A blog everyday in September: Day 2 Back to school

I follow a blog about motherhood and saw that the writer did a 'blog every day in August' challenge and I really enjoyed reading it, so I have decided to take part in Chickywiggle's blog every day in September

Day two: Back to school

Today I return to school as a secondary teacher in an all boys school. In a couple of week I will blog about the ups and downs of returning to school, juggling part time work, a baby and trying to keep a social life, but for now here are the crazy things buzzing round my head about my return to work.

  • Will my little boy be OK?
  • Will I remember how to teach?
  • Will the pupils be happy to have me back in their lessons?
  • Will my colleagues be pleased to see me, or will they miss my maternity cover? Will it make a difference?
  • I can't wait to have something that's just for me, not anyone else in my family.
  • I love my job, and the pupils so it will be fun to be back at work.
  • What will the new head teacher be like? How will it be working under a different form of management?
  • It's only part time - my working week will be over before I know it!
  • I'm so grateful for my mum, and my mother in law for looking after my LO - it has saved me time, hassle, worry and money about finding a good childminder.
  • Do I really want to be away from my little boy for this long when he's still only six months old?
  • Will we be able to afford our bills every month?
I appreciate that much of this list contradicts other aspects of this list, however this is my brain at the current moment.
