As always, a big weekend around the Folsom Street Fair. First the Exiles Meet & Greet on Friday, then a party at a friend’s house tonight, and the Fair tomorrow. Busy, but fun!

Mom is back

Mom went to New York for Marc’s wedding. I picked her up from the airport on Thursday night, and she was off for home on Friday. A busy woman!

Busy School Week

First we had the Band Parent Meeting at Taylor on Wednesday. I had to plan and co-ordinate with Mr. MgGaw, and came away with more action items (of course). Then on Thursday we had Haley’s Back-to-School night. September is such a busy month!

Rosh Hashonah

We all took the day off and celebrated. We were at the synagogue from 10:30-1, then went out to dim sum at Champagne restaurant in San Mateo. Then home to relax, and the kids did some homework. A nice way to start 5773.

PTA Website

I’m obviously a candidate for Volunteers Anonymous because I volunteered to set up the new PTA web site for Taylor. We had a design meeting on 9/15, after which I put together a draft. Hopefully we’ll get it going soon.

Haley’s eyes = good

Haley had her annual eye exam on the 13th and all is well. 20-20 vision and no other problems. She got the good eyes, unlike the rest of us!

Back MRI

I had an MRI on my back on 9/10. It was really uncomfortable because my big belly meant I had a lot of pressure there, and it was hard to breathe. But I put up with it for 45 minutes. The doctor says I have deterioration in my lower few vertebrae, and narrowing of the nerve channels there. Yuck.

Panel on Informational Interviewing

I participated in a panel on “Informational Interviewing” for the Jewish Vocational Services, on 9/11. About 20 people were in attendance, all in various stages of job searching. Jeanine at the JVS really helped me with my resume and other skills, which I’m sure contributed to me landing my great job at Guidewire.
