Last week was a very special week where Megan and I spent all of it in New York City – just herself and I visiting the Grandparents (my parents). Due to work, Elizabeth flew out later and joined us for the remainder of the trip for Memorial Day weekend.
Consulting work continued to flow in and we were grateful. Our savings were being replenished as we were still under my parents’ roof. This definitely helped with managing the expenses I must say. Also, our confidence was quickly returning and there was a sense of having a purpose in this harsh world again. Something about running a family business into the ground really can put a damper on one’s day.
Yeah, in the news again.. The last time this happened was (click here) and (click here too).
Okay. Ya got me. It’s really Photoshop and I’m just having a little fun. And yes, a looming recession? I’m pretty nervous. Man, just getting over the last one … was the first one I had to deal with as a working adult, and honestly, that one freakin sucked. 🙂
Meet Suwph (pronounced Joe). This is Megan’s first stuffed animal that she named. She has a ton of other stuffed animals, but Suwph was a gift from a classmate. And she likes to draw Suwph. She spells his name S-U-W-P-H and calls him “Joe.”
Much ado about love – guess one is never too young. I just couldn’t believe that it would be so soon. This very incident happened about six months or so ago, about when Megan had just turned four. It’s just been on my mind since and I figured I’d better write about it before too many other experiences overlap this one. Fingers crossed it won’t be that soon.
One night, we had just tucked Megan in bed and she was fast starting to fall asleep. Nothing like the warm feeling of sleep embarking – so I thought. It was apparent that she wasn’t going to fall asleep just yet, but instead, was hanging onto a thought. She stiffened slightly as she spoke to me in a soft voice and told me about a boy. (more…)
You’ve stumbled onto my online journal, “Outrageous Thoughts of Babble”. I started this journal back in 1997 thus pre-dating terms such as “blogging,” which makes me feel secretively proud (snicker). Its purpose has always remained the same — to record life’s events as they happen – for they do happen quickly and fleetingly. Enjoy! :)
