Been a while

So, it has been a while since I last posted -- specifically a month and a day now. I have actually thought that I wanted to post but could not find the time with how crazy life has been. Lots of things going on including:

* Thanksgiving -- Spent a lot of time with family. Everyone was very well behaved, the two grandkids in the mix played together like angels and are now enamored with each other. Spent time with my family and my in-laws. All in all, the time was pretty near perfect.

* Speaking of perfect -- Okay, so I am a big Boston fan and proud of it. I am loving these days -- Red Sox won the WS, Patriots are undefeated, Celtics are 20 -2 and the Bruins are playing pretty well. For a sports fan like me, could life get better?

* Good things happening with friends -- So, over the last month, a couple of exciting things happening with friends. First, one of my dear friends finally got engaged -- whoo hoo. That news kept me dancing in my chair at the office for days (and generated a lot of weird looks). Second, a friend who has been trying for a while to get pregnant is now prego -- whoo hoo. That got me dancing at least for a day. Third, I resolved a rift with someone who was my best friend for a long time. Not sure if we will ever get back to where we were but we are now talking again which makes me happier than I can articulate.

* Family. Family life is wonderful. Work life has been kicking my butt and my SO's butt as well. The whole two-working parents thing is freaking hard especially when none of your other friends are in that situation. Child is wonderful, having a few temper tantrums that drain me but all in all, child is fabulous even with every single germ and illness possible from pre-school

That is a big enough update for now ...
