Its been over a year since I started blogging. Wow! I've hit some cool milestones: >163 posts, >50 regular readers, AND I'm just shy of 10000 page hits. Its nice to know that I've had some success in this blogging thing because when I started, I didn't really now what to expect as I didn't know the "type" of blogger I would be. My introduction into the blogosphere was thru the "mommybloggers" who got me hooked onto some political blogs (we had both US and Canadian elections going on!). I had no idea that there was this whole world of science bloggers. So when I started, I totally thought this would be all about my struggles as mom going through school, with the focus being on monkey. Thanks to Bean-mom and Mel, I discovered this awesome science blogging community. All of whom have encouraged me to (1) put myself first and find a new PI. (2) how to find myself in a better situation (3) trouble shoot experiments (4) get me through some hard sick days (5) cheer me on. (6) and most importantly, enjoy those monkey stories!
Thanks everyone. Thanks to your encouragement, I am in a new lab, here on a sunny saturday and not grumpy. I'm in a place where the fact that I am an adult and intelligent is acknowledged and respected.

Beanmom - Thank you to you. Because of your comment and the links on your blog, I found this community. I will be in your debt for that. I can't believe its been a year. sometimes it feels like just the other month, and sometimes it feels like a lifetime ago that I started this looking for support. I have that and so so much more!

Sweet blogoversary! That's wonderful.
I enjoy your blog; it's hard to find mom/scientist blogs. I started out in the science blog circle and am trying to find good mom blogs now, having just recently become one.
If you know of any I should check out, let me know!
