Hi all,
Haven't had internet access for a week and just got power back a couple of days ago -- didn't have that for five days. Was a little tougher to take care of Ethan! He is seriously mixed up about day and night now. We had a generator for much of the time which ran our heat and one outlet in the kitche so we weren't as bad off as some in our neighborhood. Got pretty good at diaper changing by candle light and headlamps.
Lysa, projectile poo? projectile? dear god.
So I've been offered a last minute gig teaching 197 and need to figure out child care options before I can take the job. Because it is IWP and because it is linked to Mark Patterson's class, I'll have to attend the linked lecture. That means at least 5 hours of child care per day, three days a week, not including office hours somewhere in there. What do you think I can expect to pay for this? Any ideas where to go? Ethan will only be 7 weeks old on Jan 1! but Uniform is a much better health insurance than the one we havve through Kevin's work, believe it or not. Definately better for alternative medicine such as our naturopathic pediatrician who is not covered by Kevin's insurance. What to do what to do?
Good luck at MLA Lysa if I don't talk to you before you go!

hey there V. congrats on the teaching offer! we will definitely hook up to talk shop when i get back and to figure out childcare issues. one thing: i taught for the IWP for three years, including the 197/202 links. in all my years doing it, i never attended *all* the lectures after the first two weeks or so. and it never negatively impacted my ability to teach the link. you might be able to count on that (i.e. only coming to campus twice/week) if you work it out ahead of time. let's talk more about it!
