Yeah, I know, I know. Zero posts for 2 months, Mai, wtf??? And while I know you all just hang on my every word (insert dripping sarcasm here), I have been somewhat otherwise occupied for the last few months. So here's the roundup for the moment:
- Kids are running around like chicken no more head - and I am chasing them in the same fashion.
- Been crazy busy with work, in a really good way.
- Did some interviews for a show Emme was putting together and because of that got to meet and chat with some really cool people.
- Drooling and being gaga over my adorable new nephew, Jeremiah. Amazed by my sister who bore the little guy at 10 pounds, 5 ounces.
- Worked on Emme's Christmas show - full of amazing performances by peopple like Na Leo, John Cruz, and the incomparable Uncle Willie K. Cried my eyes out with the beauty of the performances.
- Landed my ass in the hopsital with appendicitis of all things - thank God for the teenager and the family and friends who helped out.
- Survived Christmas, and am looking forward to the New Year.
That's about it, I guess.
Also, wanted to share my lesson for this year. I am a person who normally pushes for what she wants (those of you who know me know this). This year I learned about - as was said in "Under the Tuscan Sun" - ladybugs. Chasing them around - pushing to catch them - just doesn't work. But sometimes, if you juse lie down and wait, the ladybugs come to you. And honestly, I need to thank my family, especially my husband, for this lesson. Family and spouses are often the best teachers.
There's always more to say - and I will try to say things more frequently.
Peace and joy to everyone now and throughout the new year. May 2010 be your best year yet.
