Let's Try This Again.....

....returning back to work that is.

I was to return back to work on Friday, June 18. Well, Occupational Health (dept we are to call when we return) apparently leaves at noon and my shift doesn't start till 3:30PM. Well, the paperwork I received while on maternity leave doesn't say when they leave and what not.
After an hour of being at work to try to find someone to get my status active again (since its been placed on hold due to being out for almost 2 months...plus they are the dept that would notify payroll I was back so I can get my normal pay again with differential), I was sent home. I was actually eager to work and interact with other people besides family. Now I need to call short term disability and see if they will be paying me for Friday (since they only approved me up to the 18th and that was the day I was suppose to return to work) and let them know they should as it was not my fault I could not work.

*sigh* I just hope they get this corrected. I want to get some overtime in this week so it will be on next week's check and help us out a bit on catching up with bills. We kind of made the mistake and bought a new truck - 2010 Toyota Tundra CrewMax - that would help accomadate baby items (plenty of room in the backseat and the passenger doesn't have to move forward to the dash). It may have been an impulse buy but I know it will come in handy with the child. But the payments went up so.....the extra $$ is helpful. Oh, not to mention the medical bills we are starting to see....

Hubby is thinking about getting a part time job to help catch us up a bit. Wish I could find maybe a legit work from home job that doesn't cost to start up so I can do part time at home in between taking care of the lil' one and school. But then again, I like my free time.

Well, sorry to carry on. Going to get my day started and work out a bit while my two boys are still sleeping.
