We've been having some trouble lately with our internet, so it's been awhile since I have had time to write and been able to get online at the same time.
Both boys have stuffy noses. Gabe is considerably worse than Chi, but on the plus side, I stay home with them on Fridays anyway, so they will be able to stay home and rest. I don't expect it to turn into anything serious. One of the kids at daycare had a cold and now it's just going around as these things do.
Matt has a promising lead on a possible post-doc with NIST which I can never quite remember what it stands for but it's something like National Institute of Science and Technology, in other words, a national lab. It is located in Boulder, CO. We are okay with this. Colorado is expensive, but national labs usually pay well and offer good benefits. The only downside is that it wouldn't start until January so that causes some headaches. He's been in contact with the lab and was encouraged to apply to multiple groups, so we will see where that leads. He is still interviewing in the Netherlands, but that isn't until July and we are also waiting on Los Alamos. A friend has a connection and is passing along Matt's info with an attached recommendation. So keep your fingers crossed that something just falls into place for us.
As for me, not much is going on. I am wrapping up my job. I have a summer discussion group to lead and youth group and the summer trip, which is basically already planned. The kids are leading worship Sunday because Pastor will be out of town.
Last night we went on a walk and stopped at our neighborhood playground. While Matt and Gabe ran around, Chi explored the grass for the first time. He really liked it. He sat all by himself and looked and pulled.
