no dice
I will not be going to more grad school in the fall. No funding. But encouragements to try again next fall.
To be honest, I'm a little relieved. I l-o-v-e this department, but we are so stressed out right now, and I'm so tired, that a little break sounds nice. We need to find a place to live, Chris needs to find a new career, we need to figure out what to do with Ellis's hearing (cochlear implants?), and I need to read all those books I keep saying I'm going to read. :-)
I belong in that deparment, so I will reapply, and hopefully, we'll be in a better place in our life to make it more doable.
I'm at Home Institution right now. I doesn't feel like home. Full of good people but frustrating circumstances.

This seems to be a family thing this year!!! With me, I have a job if the person on the list ahead of me doesn't want it. And Linnea is wondering as well.... God has something great for us!! :)

it sounds like a break is definitely a good idea. no reason to rush. i always have to tell myself that because I feel like if I don't get *THIS OPPORTUNITY* there will *NEVER* be another. This is ridiculous. I also have felt like speed is its own value and it isn't. So good for you taking it easy.

It was good to catch up on your blog once again.
You had quite a trip to NO with screaming baby, losing your bag and PTL you retrieved it. Congratulations on the completion of your thesis. What a relief to have done-I'm sure. That's how I felt about doing the whole years bookwork in April 2006 for 2005 taxes!!! A burden lifted off my shoulders!
I had humus just recently with pita bread. The warm pita bread was delicious with 'real butter', but I didn't care for the humus! To each his own, eh? I hope you find the care that baby needs for his hearing problem.
