Re: Do you want to do a FFC?
Happy Birthday!!!
To wise-rita: I do not work in anything related to my master's degree. It's a long story, and maybe eventually I will work in something related again (I did for a while), but for now it's all zen. And I've actually considered going back to school for something else entirely lately. Nonetheless, I know it's frustrating and hard to see how to get from point jobless to point-wherever-it-is-that-you-pictured-yourself.
FFC:
DH had a fight with his cousin/friend today and I'm actually kind of happy because it means we'll have more "us" time, at least for a bit. Who knows how long these two will be mad at each other.
Another: I'm scared to death about Spain's economy crashing, something that seems to be more probable every day.
Wise_Rita: You'll get the job, the right job. I worked in a lot of other fields before I found my "dream" job, but it happened.
My FFFC: I'm scared to tell my parents that we aren't staying at their house when we go to visit later in the year. I know this will hurt their feelings and I just don't want to hurt them, but my reasons for not staying at their house outweigh their hurt feelings. In a nutshell, they have two dogs - one with a bad temper that doesn't like kids - and my dad is hesitant to make the home safer for my kids. Since I'd rather hurt my parent's feelings than deal with a dog bite and everything that can come from that, I'm going to find a different place to stay.
Happy birthday Potato!
Wise Rita, it will all work out for you, don't worry!
My FFC: I'm scared this baby will come out and he won't be cute and everyone will just pretend he is and just talk behind my back.
My other one is that I am worried about how MIL is going to react when the baby is here. We used to have a horrible relationship but she has been very nice to me since I got pregnant. She said she is going to take some time off of work when he arrives and I can't decide if she is actually going to be helpful or just a pain in the butt. I'm not looking forward to finding out.
I have.
But try living in Switzerland where it is impossible to not see a $1000 bill. People would fling them around like they were $5 bills. Including the lady in front of me at the grocery store once who paid her small grocery bill with a $1000 bill. Check out lady looked like she saw this everyday.
I had a homework overload this week. Tonight I will be on the sofa relaxing even though I have another paper to write for Tuesday.

Now Nesting from Chicago, IL My nail blog:
My FFC - I'm now kind of regretting inviting my patents to stay with us while they have some building work done on their house. It could be for a month. Unlike when we stayed in their house for a month (between houses while I was pregnant) our house has just one living room, one tv and our living room is close to N's bedroom as her bedroom and ours are downstairs - my dad has no concept of having the tv an a normal volume...
Second one is more general.... I'm sick of all the coverage of the Titanic!!!! I know it launched 100 years ago yesterday but still...
Your dream job and my dream job are about identical, so you know how tough this field is!
I am sooo late to the party...but DH and I were on phone/gchat for a good part of the day yesterday because I think we found a potential house in Aberdeen...anyways here was my FFC that I posted on my BMB
Last week when my mom, DD, and I were driving from Texas to New Jersey, I started out pumping under a blanket with my electric pump completely hidden from view...
fast forward 6 hours, one screaming baby, and dirty pump parts...
I was sitting in the front passenger seat, both boobs totally out, no blanket, manually pumping into a bottle (I produce an insane amount of milk) while my mom is going about 75 mph down the highway passing trucks and cars...
I could not have cared less that I was "exposing" myself
So if you were driving along interstate 81 last week, yes those were my big a** ti**ies...sorry if I blinded you..
