« Wow! A secret message from you teeth! »

What does this mean?

My good news was hampered by a small salary offer associated with it.
Then it is being furthered hampered by the bleak interview of my hubby.
He sounds totally depressed about the rural-ness of the area where we may move to.

I don't know what to think any more.

A thrilling time is in your immediate future.

And finally it's in.

"XYZ will be making you a job offer some time next week."
A good news indeed. THE good news that I have been waiting for.

It has been hectic and too stressful lately to motivate myself to write my bliary. Now that I am back in the States (in DC) away from kids, I can start writing again. I also had stopped checking fortune cookies, too, as soon as I realized that I was getting same messages for multiple number of times. They seem to have finished replenishing their fortune reserve as well.

A thrilling time will most likely a very emotionally draining time. It also tends to be accompanied by confusion, too. We will need to make difficult choices, face oppositions, cause pains... Are we ready? I believe I am. Are we making the right choice? Well, we'll never know until we do make the choice.

Good news also come in a bundle. Just to complicate my life, or to test me. All of a sudden, I am invited to participate in a start-up energy related science research group. Just when I am about to give up on research all together. This could be a simple coincidence, or perhaps this is a normal, everyday situation but the occurrence of multiple good and bad news at once is particularly more noticeable when we have to choose between great news and the consequences that will follow are too big. Making no sense? Thought so.
