Nice Seeing old Friends
First, I want to pass lot of thanks to my high school friends, Gabbi, Phoung and Wendy who coordinated this past Saturday, May 28 'Mini high school' reunion lunch fundraiser event. The event was a success with a nice small group turnout. I was able to catch up with friends whom I have not seen in almost 17 years since graduating high school in 1994. We exchanged contacts and caught up with what we've accomplished since then. So, thank you everyone for coming out.
It went so well that we talked about having another bigger, more well planned fundraiser so that we can invite more friends to come out later, possibly at the same location. It turns out that Sonoma Chicken Coup on Almaden is co owned by our good close friends who offered to support another fundraiser event! So stay tuned for another event.
Spending time with Family
With all the kids being sick this weekend, and having no nanny, luckily we live close to family that I was able to have my family help out. We spent Saturday at grandparents and Sunday at my brother's place and then head to another brother's place for early evening BBQ. Even though they were not fully well, they still wanted to have some play time with their friends, so I even managed to squeeze in a play date with some good friends too late Saturday evening. So, I am so thankful for having good family and friends to help us out since staying cooped up in the house all weekend can be closet phobic for the kids.
Update on part time Nanny
Well, with just a few days without a nanny, it made realized that it's just not possible for me to handle everything without some help. Even though I had good intentions, we realize it's not realistic nor healing for me to keep caring for everything while being so weak. So, acting fast and furious, I quickly dialed my old nanny who had worked for us for 1.5 years prior to us moving to Cupertino, and got her to immediately to accept our offer to her of being a part time nanny. She will help us time part time, 6 days a week for 4 hours a day. Yay! I'm delighted to welcome her back. It's enough time to have her help me out prepare dinner, do laundry, clean up, give the kids a bath and for a little bit of down time.
