THe whole time i've had Lay, i've been a student... so odd hours at school, but i have always spent a good portion of my day with her. Now as part of teacher's college i'm teaching for 4 weeks at a highschool. So it's the real work.. i'm out the door my 7:15 and come home around 4... i lesson plan and mark until ... roughly 7-8 and by that time i'm exhausted and then there's Layla... i feel so horrible that i'm not able to spend all the time that i used to spend with her. My mom has become like Layla's mom because she spends all her day with her. And the time i do have for her i'm so tired. I hate complaining because i know tons of you do it all day every day, but for me it is new and i'm feeling so guilty. Luckily this summer i am working for my parents so i will get to see Lay all day every day, but then in september i'm hoping to get a job *sigh* i just dont' want her to feel like i dont' care or i have no energy for her, or she isn't important. there sure is a lot of guilt involved in yorkies
