Returning to Work at Return Path

Mama's going back to work. And the timing couldn't be better. Well, we all know that staying home with two kids is work, but I'm returning to "official" work and will be again holding down two jobs  - full time mom and full time employee. My start date is September 1st which is great because it gives me some time to get my eldest settled into first grade and get my youngest back at his school.
 
I'll be joining Return Path as Director, Response Consulting. I will be helping Return Path's clients optimize anything to do with email. I'm very excited about this position and working for Return Path (which was rated as one of the best places to work in Colorado for the 2nd year in a row).

Of course, we'll have to adjust to this new reality, but I am going to have some flexibility in my schedule and have the ability to work from home part time. After working full time work from home the past six years, the ability to work from home was very important to me (or at least work for a company that was located close to our house). And obviously, after having this time at home for the past several months, anything is going to be an adjustment. The work/life balance is always going to be something I struggle with and I hope I am doing the right thing for my family - both now and in the future.
