Seriously? ...I'll start with last things first. Seriously? Biomedical research always seems such a fascinating area (especially to a political science graduate), and very well respected in NZ too. Good luck on the job hunt. It's never an easy thing.<br /><br />You've really had a whole lot going on. The Beats sound adorable, and I'm glad all is going well, and hope the trauma of their general anesthetics is a long distant memory for you all. <br /><br />And all I can do is wish you luck with the family issues. Family stuff always has the power to upset us, so I think the measured way you're going about all this is the best way to cope and protect you and your family.<br />Malihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03928262526502319303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4129722175911979282.post-48569320778089321392014-10-26T20:48:13.081-07:002014-10-26T20:48:13.081-07:00Wow Cristy, this is so much! First off, yay Beats...Wow Cristy, this is so much! First off, yay Beats for being so awesome and smart! They sound like they make their Mama and Daddy very proud. My favourite stage so far has definitely been what you are now heading into!<br /><br />The survey sounds like a bloody awful experience. I'm glad to hear that they are recovering and that the experience was mostly positive, but holy hell, not something anyone would want to do again! Poor little guys. I hope the tubes work their magic.<br /><br />Family - oh man Cristy, this is a doozy. I'm so sorry you are having to work through this. But a necessary next step in personal healing at the very least. Good for you.<br /><br />Job - yes, a career in academia is a tricky thing right now in Canada too. Apollo is a uni teacher too and part time uncertainty at the uni level prompted him to find a FT, pension earning, stable gig at a community college. Less glamour, but certainly more stable for us as a family.<br /><br />Advocating for something that you're struggling with right now sounds like it may have more downsides than upsides... Not sure if you're seeking advice, but I would be inclined to politely decline and focus on what you've currently got on your plate.<br /><br />Thanks for the update. Thinking of you guys!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14896931627340645963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4129722175911979282.post-81832855020946157472014-10-26T20:06:18.410-07:002014-10-26T20:06:18.410-07:00Wow!
