With my injury, I had a different body in four months. From October-January I gained 20 pounds and, like a bad guest, they show no sign of departing. I had promised myself an entirely new wardrobe for my new job but hadn’t imagined it would be a size — or two — bigger. When I will buy myself new clothes. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. You are c...

Musings to start the conversation. In Pursuit of the Virtue of the Month. Almost two years ago, when I was assigned to my current job, a priest friend told me that his order had a school in El Salvador. With his help, I got connected (the school did not initially write back to me) and hoped it would work out. Two interviews (three hours total, all in Spanish) and a two hour evaluation later, Xochi was in. That was the easy part. I’m begging everyone I know who works in Consular Affairs, who may include y...
