I had a bit more than two years off and just started working part time again. It was a pretty significant shock to the system. It's been about three months and I am sort of getting used to it now. Mostly it's stressed out feelings like I don't have enough time to do everything anymore.

It's been interesting to see what kinds of things I've forgotten/had to relearn. The first week was really hard because I felt like I had forgotten everything. I actually had to take some time to read a bunch of stuff and refresh my memory. I've also found that I've forgotten how to lead meetings. It all comes back, but it's sort of embarrassing.

Chattygirl, I had a similar experience when I started my own company. I think it might actually be better for me to work on my own company while I am working for these other people part time. It gives me the structure and a lot of social contacts. I forgot how many people you meet when you are working!
