Two weeks of MILP-y Goodness!

The Weekly MILP (Moms In the Legal Profession) Roundup** is hosted on a rotating basis at the PT-LawMom, Attorney Work Product and A Little Fish in Law School blogs and is usually posted no later than Monday morning. Next week Proto Attorney will have it.

CM is celebrating K’s third birthday (gosh, time flies!!!) and, like me, foregoing regular blog posts for occasional brief updates due to the stuff-you-want-to-say-but-can’t and the generally overwhelming nature of life.

Cee, on the other hand, is done with overwhelming for a while having successfully completed the bar exam!! Woo-hoo, Cee! At least she thought she was done with the overwhelming until the end of a week with her cute 18-month-old.

Certifiable’s mother-in-law passed away after a long and courageous battle with cancer. Unfortunately no one pushed pause on the “year-o-shit” button so she faced even more as she arrived home after the funeral.

Proto Attorney deals with asshats not only at work but in her general vicinity on a daily basis

Even in a downturn, many people are unhappy at work. Googie Baba is turning down a year of unpaid legal fun (gee, why not??) and Butterflyfish offers up a timely example. She also explains why asking nicely isn’t always good enough…

PD Surrogate is also re-evaluating life, work and love.

Lag Liv is reeling following the loss of a dear law school classmate and distracting herself with very early and continuous nesting (perhaps girls drive you to it?)

If the above posts depressed you, this one from Dakota will make you laugh out loud (love it!) and this one is just too cute.

This must be a week for reflections, as LEO finally finished The Last Lecture and shares her thoughts about life, death and parenting. In a related post, she makes the case for starting your family young. (I agree – had Pumpkinhead at 23 and there are many bonuses)

Oddly enough, Proto Attorney is not appreciating the regular love letters from Sallie Mae as a reminder of her crippling, lifelong debt load.

TrannyHead is leaving us. Waaah!

And for those who missed it, Googie Baba reminds us that Monday was National Human Sex Trafficking Day. Take time to remember how many women are exploited every day worldwide and could use help.

Butterflyfish is pondering Clownfish’s quirkiness

Southern Female Lawyer shares an awesome letter from Satan to Pat Robertson (lol)

LEO is starting to doubt again…

Proto Atty and I have been living the same sexist “man-knows-best” workweek. Grrr!

Lag Liv is remembering to take a little time for herself and her health in the midst of litigation craziness

Certifiable is getting much-needed (and hopefully much-improved!) help!

CM is getting involved (awesome!)

Cee has her eyes on the prize (right pick, IMO!)

Proto Attorney – “…I got an email from a certain totally awesome federal agency that, you know, like, investigates stuff, saying that my application was approved and I am invited to sit for the qualification exam.”

JD Wannabe – “Today, I took a hit for woman kind and overcame that steadily growing feeling that all the new things have been done, or are not as good as they appear in their idea formats.”

Butterflyfish – “I think it is worst if you don’t know whether it is a good thing or a bad thing which is going to happen.”

PD Surrogate – “I’m focusing on myself now, and really hope no one throws a wrench into that plan.”

Out Law Mama – “You KNOW the looks you’d get. You want one, don’t you?”

Better Together — “…a wave of grief that I hadn’t realized was hanging over me just exploded.”

Starting to Melt – “The long awaited discovery of my deepest, darkest law passion- has it come to late?”

Legally Certifiable - “We have a teacher conference on Thursday. Is there a non awkward way to ask, “so why exactly do you think we’re poor?”"

Googie Baba – “What kind of karma creates a sexually deviant person with no hands? Probably what I’ll end up in my next life.”
