We’re back home and trying to get life back to some semblance of normalcy- not an easy task when you have a jet-lagged three year old who wakes up at 3am. Luckily we came back just in time for Golden Week, the wonderful time of year where companies shut down. Timing, as they say, is everything.
I’m working on uploading the pictures from the trip… there’s a lot of them. Stay tuned.
Story of the day:
When I woke Layla up this morning, instead of grumbling and groaning, she asked “Where did Chinni go?” I asked her what she was dreaming about and she said she was showing him her new dance move. She ended her story with “I guess I miss Chinni, eh?” I guess she dreams in English, at least sometimes.
Story of the week:
After returning from Japan a few cookies heavier than when I left, I decided on Saturday to go rollerblading… ended up wiping out, scratching up my knees, elbow and knuckles. Layla told me I needed to be more careful. Sunday, I decided to try my luck again and… ended up wiping out again – more blood poured from my elbow and this time my knuckle swelled up like a balloon. Layla told me I needed to buy some knee pads and elbow pads and to be more careful. Turns out my finger is fractured. Morale of the story: Don’t exercise, it’s hazardous to your health.
That’s all for now. Will try for more regular updates from here on out, although typing is a bit of a pain with this splint on my finger.
