So good news: they accepted our counter offer on Lauren’s house.  This has been one of the biggest stress points for us over the past few months.  We were afraid that with the market as it is we wouldn’t be able to sell, or at least that we wouldn’t be able to sell in time for the baby.   One thing down!

Unfortunately, it’s been a bittersweet week though because we found out that Lauren does not get partially paid maternity leave as we had thought.  In fact, its slightly ridiculous because the company does have paid maternity leave but we are missing out because of a small technicality on insurance enrollment dates.

I understand and love our capitalist system but using small loop holes and technicalities to cut people off unexpectedly strikes me as unnecessarily harsh.
