Life Summary
Aug. 22nd, 2007 03:50 pmOur internet has been down at home so I've been using my iPhone to read, but not post. Here's the summary version of my life:
1. Ellie fell out of bed last night and hit her head. I felt so bad and that thud is just sickening. She seemed okay and I dind't see a lump, but I still feel like a Bad Mommy. Other than that, Ellie seems to be doing fine - saying all sorts of funny things and generally impressing her parents.
2. I have my ultrasound tomorrow. (I think.) Hopefully, the baby will cooperate and we can see the gender.
3. Work has been...weird. The people in my office have been mean and vicious, but the new boss (old boss left last week) and our Big!Boss in Miami have been very supportive. Hopefully, the idea of training is put on hold until after the baby comes. Oh, and the me-switching-to-my-old-position isn't going to happen because apparently even if I"m not valued here, I am at our headquarters.
4. I got an email from a contact about possibly working with a pro bono immigrant advocacy thing in some capactiy. We have to talk on the phone and I won't know more until then. It's possible that this could lead to something like the non-profit I mentioned here a few months ago, but it's a long shot.
5. I'm more and more leaning towards not coming back here when the baby is born. I think I've learned what I can and the money isn't worht the stress. Plus, child care for two is very expensive and leaves me with about $400 a month after childcare and loan payments. So, we will see.
