    I have been completely off the grid busy, for the last couple of days. In a way, it was really nice. For me there are varying degrees of stress, related to work load. As unlikely as it sounds, I tend to me most stressed when I am only relatively busy. The reason for this is…

    We had a freaking awesome time with Piper on Christmas morning. She got so many new toys, she doesn’t even know what to do with herself. I’ll get into that more, later. Anyway, we left Westchester around 1, for the airport. We flew out of Newark for the first time ever. It was pretty much…

    It seems like just yesterday, I was complaining about how is was so warm and rainy, so close to Christmas. Well, shut my mouth. My parents are in town this weekend (more about that later), and they brought one of those patented Utah snow storms with them. They arrived on Thursday night, and woke up…

    Piper has been spoiled lately with all kinds of visits from cousins, aunts uncles and grandparents. Last weekend, Piper grandma Baker came to visit her. Apparently she had been saving up some tricks specifically for this occasion. It was the first time that we had ever seen Piper completely flip herself over onto her stomach.…

    I’m not really sure why, but for some reason, it is already starting to feel like holiday season. I guess maybe because next week is Thanksgiving. I can definitely tell, though. I feel like the whole pulse of the city becomes slightly modified twice a year. It happens once for vacation season, in late summer,…
