Tonight was unusual.  My husband watched the kids and I went to the library alone.  I didn’t have a plan, just wandered around.  I came across a book called, “Comeback Moms” and I got through most of it tonight (thanks to a stop at Starbucks for a venti cafe mocha!). 

I thought this was a very interesting read for a new stay at home mom.  It described several scenarios that sahm’s face including preparing to quit, dealing with money issues, feelings of self-worth, etc.  It also gives a lot of pointers for positioning yourself to go back to work (something I plan to do in a few years).  I’m nervous about all of these things, so it was good to get some perspectives from the writers and the many people they interviewed.

I’m still digesting a lot of what was discussed in the book, but if you’re thinking about staying home or currently at home and thinking about going back to work, I recommend checking it out.
