catch up post

well, it's been a long time since I have blogged, and that last one was sounding pretty depressing! here's what's been happening in hipmama land since then:
  • got a raise, think I mentioned that. helps the work burnout a bit.
  • my office moved to a new location, more posh than we had before, but I am sharing an office (had a private one we had a really great xmas party, crazy fun!
  • our house-mate of more than a year moved out, which has been like losing a family member. the hunt is still on for a replacement.
  • my dad had 2 heart attacks in mid-december. we are in Pennsylvania now with him and the rest of the family. he's doing ok, but scared us for a bit there.
  • Riccardo is back in CA, we had a mini-Xmas with him before we left for PA. Sophia got to see him for a few days, which was nice.
  • I'm resolving to get back in shape for the new year. It's my way of taking what has happened to my dad and learning from it. I know he would never want any of us to go thru what he has been. So my tribute will be exercising and keeping both heart and body in good shape from now on.
Well that's the nutshell version, but there's always so much more than a few bullets can convey. But that's the catch-up, stay tuned for further philosophical ponderings or photos!

  1. I hope your father is doing well, it must be colder then you used to in PA- did you grow up there?

    I am resolving to get into shape too, this year- I feel like I have this head start to stay healthy and I am not taking advantage of it.

    Congratulations on the raise!
