I wasn't quite sure where to post this, but I wanted to let all of you who read or responded to my B*tchin Post last week (the one about how everyone in the family was throwing up, my daycare provider left for a family emergency, etc., etc.) know that I finally got a good break today! My DGS approved an extension on my proposal defense date, so I now have until the first week of September (as opposed to, um, next week) to defend my dissertation proposal. Things are still a little stressful as I'll lose or run out of funding if I have any other setbacks along the way before I actually complete the dissertation, but at least I have some breathing room right now. Oh, and all my immediate family members also stopped throwing up, so I think we should be okay for a while :)

We need an anti-bitching forum too, huh?

congrats! I'm been there doing that, except its DH who just defended his dissertation after years of struggle and now we get to finish Med School and on to Residency. Someday it will be easy. :)

Just wanted to say congrats. I know what you're going through! I'm just trying to finish my own dissertation ( should have been done a year ago, but things happen! BTW, you and I have boys a week apart too!
