Back to ... ? (重出江湖)

In the States, there is a sales promotion called "Back to School." That is the sales time period right before the school starting. The sales item covers stationeries, books, teens clothes, etc.

I am wondering, is there a sales promotion called " Back to Work?" that sells working lady clothes, cosmetics, 一般日用保養品, good books that help you to pick up the latest trend in working environment. Not necessary these items are only needed before you back to work, but just shopping something that comforts your anxiety. After all, hey, I have been disconnected to the market for couple months.

Well, exciting is the first stage when get the offer. You feel the past decision that leaving the previous position and starting a new life in the new city is correct. Then, the next emotion comes, "am I going to be as good as before?" I feel a bit "confidence crisis." I am getting old and 有自知之明that 1> I cannot learn as quick I was. 2> I don’t want to back to the previous life, I want to spend more time with the family. 3> I want to have a healthier life that I can take care of myself and my husband and also enjoy the work.
After recognizing the worries, you want to do something to smooth them before back to work. So, I am going to have a 7-day little getaway next week.

It has been a great break, however, I don’t think I am going to miss it. I appreciate have the option that stops for couple months and rethink about the values in my life, the new life me and my husband need to invest together. I try, and realize cannot be good at a full time housewife. I still need to have my own independece space and working demand to enrich the "self-satisfaction." Well, feed my husband and make him gaining weight is another "self-satisfaction," but cannot fulfill 100% of the time. And, he is probably not happy someone is 處心積慮 focusing on gaining his weight.

So, what does that mean to my "Desperate House Wife Club?" Should I change my column’s name? 政治上可以有"藍皮綠骨," 為啥我不可以是披著agressive working lady 的皮 with a deeply housewife’s heart? 我的中心思想還是feed my husband, enjoy the "young" couple life, learning and gaining knowledge and, with more balance between life and work.


ps. 圖片是兩隻快樂的,沒有殺氣的忍者. I guess that is my vision of the future.
