6 months off! Ill be busy for most of it but I have maybe 2-4 weeks before she gets here.

Just got Immortals Fenyx to help pass some time and relax while I can.

My replacement at work is in a panic over me leaving. Shes still not ready though Ive tried my best to train her and help her prepare. Some things just wont come without experience and time though. Like super tough negotiations, or how to have conversations with high level executives.

Yesterday I had my performance review and got glowing feedback. But no promo. My manager was talking about having me lead some things when I get back so it would be a no brainer next year. I dunno if I trust that so Im just gonna play it by ear in September when I get back.

Its a huge mixed bag for me. Excitement at the thought of meeting her. Anxiety at the thought of giving birth. Terror at the thought of wtf am I going to do with a baby after. I know nothing of babies. Never even changed a diaper in my life.

My husband otoh is acting like nothing lol. Not much outward emotion at all. But I guess hes not the one pushing a human out of his body.

Although he did run like a maniac across the house yesterday. He thought I was screaming. It was the neighborhood kids though. Said he almost had a heart attack thinking I was in trouble. So at least he feels something lol
