    Let's see if I post enough to hit the radar.

    And how is your marathon training going? 

     I think your life sounds insane right now, but I think it's better to be a stressed wreck who tries than someone who quits and just fails. You will get through this. You seem strong.

    Oooh, I'd like to know what you think of me!  ;)

    You seem like a lot of fun and a very cool new mom. I admire how you are keeping it together. And you are hot.  

    Thanks Elle. This really means a lot coming from you, and I mean that :)

    Am I too late? I'll take whatever you feel like dishing. 

    You are smart and feisty. Very cute. I admire how you handled your work situation earlier in the week.

    surprise me!

    You are the best!  You seem super smart. I think you've done a great job balancing your career and your family. And you are so supportive of your DH. I really admire you.  

    aw, thanks!  But I do chuckle at the balancing career and family, since, you know, I haven't worked a day since Natalie was born.  But for me, that is a great balance!  ;)

  • Whatever comes to mind first. And I also totally think of you and have been tempted to iron at least my pillowcases more than once. Ha!

    I would like some sort of superlative if you are still giving.

     

     Nest Hipster!!! I might be wrong but I get that vibe.

    Surprise me! 

    You seem like a very genuine, caring person.

    Maybe. But there are only 24 hours in a day.  You must have no down time. But you are doing it all and I guess that's sort of the end goal! 

  • Oh that's very sweet!!! 

    Thank you

    I thought you had a short stent after you moved? I more was referring to how you have followed your DH but kept your career throughout.  In a 2 professional home I think that's not always easy. I didn't know you'd quit working but you seem like the type who will go back.

    You are awesome. I have always wanted to be a professor. And I know making it as an art history professor hasn't been easy.  You've done very well.  

  • DONE!!!  Elle for president!!!!!!

    nah.  We knew we'd probably only be here for 2 years (and I was newly pg when we moved), so I didn't get a job down here.  I do sometimes want to go back, but probably not in exactly the same position.  Floor work schedules suck, and I'm not down with working nights, weekends, and holidays again, on a regular basis.  We'll see what happens when the girls are both in school in a few years.

    Really?  But I don't even like indie rock.  (I can see where you'd get that vibe though)

    Elle!  It's been so long since we chatted.  How are you?  I'll take a compliment while you are at it but that's not why I came in the post.  I'm coming back on here more and more lately.

    JLH! I'm happy you are back! You have exquisite taste, so I'll name you Most Tasteful.  You are really a lovely person. How have you been?

    Thanks.  I've been good.  How have you been?  Hope all is well.  Kids will be 3 in August can you believe it?
