Taking leave

I talked to my boss today about taking a leave of absence from work. He was really good about it. Now I get to deal with the paperwork and getting ready to go out. S and I finally decided that it's worth giving up my salary to focus on what we are trying to do and all we have on the line and then re-evaluate after this cycle. I have to fight the urge to focus on what we are foregoing (one mos. takehome = $ for 2 FET cycles here or one fresh cycle in India (incl. plane tickets)...

I decided that instead of going away, which we desperately need, we are going to see my family up north this weekend. With all we have coming up I'm worried I won't be able to spend time with my ailing grandmother. And then of course there are my adorable niece and nephews, who are growing like weeds.

Hope you have a great long weekend. :)
