I am happy

It occurred to me the other day that I haven’t blogged in awhile and I got to thinking about why. Have I been too busy? In a way yes, but then again I have always made time to write in the past when I felt I had something to write (or rant) about. Nope, these past few weeks (even months) I realize I just don’t have that much to say. But again why? I asked my husband, who is very familiar with my rants and he gave an answer which rang very true.

“You are happy” he said.

And he is right. Professionally, I have a fellowship which allows me to do interesting research in a city I love, and I was recently offered another grant which may open the possibility of getting some help in the lab. Personally, I have a wonderfully supportive husband and I have a toddler, who gets more interesting and lovable by the day. I have had to work hard for these things - but it is worth it.

So for once it is nice not to have much to say.
