Title: Catching up
Post by marlinsfan on Jun 10th, 2009 at 3:49pm
Hi folks,

It's been a long time since I posted. It's actually been a long time I spent more than a few minutes on the board. It's been a hectic past year and a half. Many of you know we moved from Florida to New Jersey last year. My wife was 7 months pregnant, and Olivia arrived in April while we were in temporary housing. Here is a recent pic of Olivia:

For those of you that remember Marco, he's turned 3 years old already and is growing up to be a great kid, very nice with his little sister, though he has his moments where he wishes she was not around:

He is obsessed with Thomas the train, still, and all things related to trains.

It has been quite the stressful year, as I'm sure that is the case for everyone here, given the financial situation of our country.... My industry (financial services) has been particularly hard hit, and I've seen my coworkers getting laid off left and right, and I can't help but wonder when I'll be next.

As for CH, I seemed to have skipped my April cycle. As with last year in April, I shadowed pretty heavily, loaded up with Melatonin and filled my O2 RX, but the cycle never fully developed. I guess I'm lucky again this year.

I'll do my best to keep checking in. In my new office in NY, my computer screen is completely visible to anyone who walks by, so given all the layoffs I keep the internet use to almost zero during work hours....

If anyone is in downtown NY during the week, I'd love to catch up over lunch. Nights & weekends are tough as I have a 1:20 commute home and I like to get home before the kids go to sleep.

Sounds like your doing well. Less pain the better!

Great pics of the kids.

Hope things continue to be happy with the family and your health :)

I sure do remember Marco.  Can't believe how he's grown.  Olivia is a little beauty.

You are truly blessed.  Thanks for sharing.

Heyyyy marlinsfan!

I can't believe how Marco's grown, and just look at the precious Olivia - they're absolutely gorgeous  [smiley=grin2.gif].  

Are you down on The Street?  I'm sure you're happy you're still in the mix, it was ugly ugly for a while, though it's turning around slowly.  I'm in midtown, so lunch isn't feasible (not that I ever take it mUch), but maybe an actual Clusterhead (zwibbs?) could take you up on that.

Glad you're well - keep your pc screen free of unseemly visits and you should be ok!

Take care,
Pepp

You sound like you're doing all right for now. Keep the beast at bay and you have beautiful children.
