    . I totally forgot about that! I'm so so sorry CMC. My stomach dropped reading this post. On the plus side, you're really really pretty. I think if I were as pretty as you, being reminded of it would always cheer me up. Hope that theory holds up.

    I'm sorry.

    Is it possible that this could help baby plans? Could you find some PT work maybe and just keep it that way? I know daycare costs in Boston are kind of ridiculous.

    For less then ten cents a day, you can feed a hungry child.
  • That sucks! I'm sorry.  I hope you find something new and even better very soon.

    No kidding Angie, it is insane. I haven't even thought about this, but maybe. I'll guess I'll see how the job search goes first.

  • I read an article not that long ago and it named Boston as the #1 most expensive place for child care.  Portland was like #5 or #6.  BOO.
