Releasing direction-ma and raise-ma back out into the ether. I got a promotion and a raise, coupled with the promise of mentoring.
Now Z & I just need to find an apartment.
Anyway, thanks.
I'll ask for some of that direction-ma, please? I think that instead of me joining the Foreign Service, my husband might leave the Foreign Service, possibly for teaching. I guess we need make-good-decisions-ma.
Hey, back for the jobma again.
I have an interview Thursday morning with a good firm.
If I don't get this Imma gonna snap-- so wish me luck!
I AM AN AUNTIE!!!!!!!
Gavin Hennessey Beatrice, a little over seven pounds, with curly brown hair was born today.
Am told he's very, very cute.
In case any of y'all were coming to DC for the big Women's March at the end of April, you should know there's a big drag king show the night before. For your enjoyment. Cause we figured if there were going to be a million extra women in town, some of them would appreciate....
Well, I'm requesting some ~ma. I'm sensing on the wind at the all girls school where I teach that they are looking to combine two part time positions (One of them being mine) into a full time position. I'm not at all interested in going full time, so if this happens I'll lose my job there next year. I'm on contract through then end of summer so it's nothing immediate. Also, the school needs to do what is best for them. I've been there for 5 wonderful years and love the girls, but if it is done, it is done. So, the ~ma that I'm looking for is more along the lines of everything working out for the best. If I keep the job there that would be cool, but I'd also be totally cool with finding other work to fill that gap in my income. It could be another college level adjunct position, or just more frequency on the larger design stuff.
