3/14 in --

I received an unofficial offer for that job I applied and interviewed for! I’m calling the director soon to iron out details, so we’ll see. She didn’t say anything more than that yet.
I asked the two people at work who I asked to be references for me and they said they hadn’t gotten back to her yet, but one of them said she is going to send a glowing reference for me today.

(Edit: I accepted the job! The pay is better than I expected and the benefits are pretty good too, although I have almost everything I need already through my husband’s job. I start the first week of June!).

I have a phone interview for a different position scheduled for next week as well, just in case.

I still don’t know how much it pays. I will negotiate if necessary.
I’m going to try to shoot for starting the first week of June so I can be home with Maeve for about eight weeks. We’ll see. I have childcare worked out already, so that’s a relief.

The last day of my current job is next week. I still have to get through these last couple months of school. After I give birth (which I’m HOPING AS HECK it’s EXTREMELY SOON), my professor will work with me so that I can complete assignments in an alternative fashion if needed (two of these assignments are presentations, and I obviously may not be able to be there for them).

It’s smooth sailing from here on out. I am so, SO ready for my baby to get here. Her room is almost finished. Our house is still a mess, but the basics are done. That’s what matters for now.

We saw They Might Be Giants last night and it was a great time! We also went out to dinner to a fantastic French restaurant beforehand. I’m lucky to live in a city with such yummy food, that’s for sure. That’s one of my favorite things about living here.

I am completely exhausted and barely feel like a real person though.
