Recharged
I finally came back Wednesday night, and what an great trip it was. I am still adjusting with a tinge of post-travel fatigue and dealing with being alone again needing to study like there’s no tomorrow, but everything went really well with my family on all fronts. I spent much-needed time w/my daughter and we had a great 1st birthday party. Not a lot of people were there as I mentioned, since it was mostly family, but it was an all-out affair for a 1-year-old, let me tell you. The only thing missing was other kids. This is due in part because Claudia is the youngest in her much older family, and I’m the oldest in mine with only one brother (no kids). There was more than enough love and fun, however, and we all had a good time.

Thanks to all the commenters who wished me (us) well; it means a lot to know that in spite of my more sparse posts as of late, that people still read, care, even have me on their radar. There’s a lot more I want to post about–and will–but before I get to some other things, I definitely wanted to give a quick update that all is well for now, and hopefully, for good (as much as can be). I definitely needed that to be the case if I am to focus without unnecessary distractions on the task at hand for the next 6-8 weeks until test day. As long as school leaves me alone and doesn’t get unreasonable about missed days or similar BS reasons (esp. with other students having rules bent all the time), I should be just fine.
Starting up the grindstone…

What a sweet baby! That first birthday is just the best; I really think it’s more for the parents than the child–and it’s about the last time you will be able to say THAT. LOL!!!
