This is Dan's first week in Raleigh. I miss him! For those who don't know, the guy in charge of Raleigh - Durham facilities is done tomorrow. Dan is being considered for the position. We are not sure how we feel about it. For now though, Dan will be going back and forth between his facilities and the RD facilities. You try getting pregnant when your husband is in another state. Not possible! I am thankful I don't have a job that is keeping me here yet so I will be going with him. I am not however thankful I don't have a job. I'm still looking. I had an awesome dream last night that I was at a major corporation doing market research. Now that I've had a taste of fast paced corporate America I miss it. I loved the high structured, fast paced, results oriented environment. I felt like a coon hound who had his first taste of chicken. I honestly miss it but I don't miss the place I worked at. I am continuing my job search. Any how, I think I'm babbling. Blogging babble.

I am also working on my writing and have found myself insanely intimidated by the submission process. I have three articles right now I am going to submit and a list of magazines to submit them to. I would definitely love your prayers for me as I move forward. I have decided for every rejection letter I receive I am going to set aside ten dollars. When Dan and I are settled someday somewhere we are sure not to move ( I laugh as I write this because we will probably be ninety when that happens and then we will be in a nursing home) I am going to make a garden with a retaining wall. Every stone will represent every rejection letter I get. Rejection makes a person stronger and a wall signifies that. That isn't all my idea by the way. I've heard this idea from several writers.
