I have now submitted my PhD, and as a result the ends of my life are flapping... what next? As I wait for marks I apply for jobs in the hope my great teaching reviews will hook me something, but as with most postgrads I don't have enough publications to be competitive for a grant yet. And I'm not sure I want a grant- simply because I desperatly want to teach, not be fully research based.
Spencer and Juliet are both thriving, he's 2 1/2 and she is 6. We're all home for the holidays, which reminds me that while I love being them, I'm not meant to be home alone with them all the time. For now, I have a little boy that needs a back rub back to sleep.
