Week 13 |
I have attended this conference for 5 years, but this time around it was an opportunity to network with other researchers in my area of research whose work I have read or used, go to hear their presentations and meet with potential mentors for a postdoctoral fellowship position. I also had the opportunity of talking to department chairs on openings in their department for an assistant professor position. Now that I am back, it is time to start applying for these positions.
I heard back from the journal I submitted one of my papers to for publication, and they want the paper revised. I have been working on that and hopefully it gets accepted for publication without anymore revisions. I have my 2nd doctors appt this week and I hope I get to see bambino. Otherwise, I have been doing very well, hubby is fine and baby is fine too, thank God.
A word of encouragement I want to leave you guys with, based on today's sermon at church. As long as Jesus is with you in the boat, no storm can wreck your boat. That came in handy for me, because I have been a little concerned over where hubby and I will end up with jobs next year. I really want us to live together as a family, because I am tired of a long distance marriage, and also with a baby on the way we need to work it out. So all I can do is trust God to lead us to the right place. With Jesus in our boat, we can sit back and relax knowing he will calm every storm & take us to the place that's right for us.
Glad to hear your symtoms have reduced. You look really good for 13 weeks. it's a close up picture so we obviously can tell you are preggers but perhaps in person it may not be that evident and people might not want to upset you in case it is weight gain. No woman likes to hear that lol
ReplyDeleteAll the ebst with your job search and I pray God gives you both jobs in the same city. Thanks for sharing that word of encouragement, with God on our side we can go through any weather. Take care.
You are back. Welcome to the second trimester. Sorry to hear that you are still having strong symptoms but very happy that things are still moving smoothly.
ReplyDeleteThose words from your sermon at Church are simply powerful. Good luck to you and the hubby. I hope things workout for the best and you are finally living in the same city with the new baby coming and all.
