Optimism

I find I generally blog when I'm worried or pensive. No blogging happens when things are flowing smoothly. This is a good time to change that!

My little one has taken nicely (much more than I expected, honestly!) to school. My wife is doing well at work, and has made friends at work. My own work is going through a patch of good work, where results seem to be following efforts. My parents and in-laws are both super supportive for us and happy to get time with their grand-daughter.

I was worried about a close friend who was struggling for close to 6 months. However, now he is fine and back in action and that gives me great pleasure and relief. Other friends are happy, nursing new babies or preparing for them.

I have begun (surprise, surprise!) getting up early in the morning frequently to knock off the old squash ball. AND follow it up with some swimming and lounging in the pool. I'm trying to eat healthier (though the same cannot be said about drink, unfortunately), and seem to be moving slowly (make that glacially!) towards my weight target.

I took my little one to Delhi to her grandparents' place for a few days. This was the first time she was away from her mamma, and yet the only one worried or grumpy during those 4 days was me! The daughter was an angel, and enjoyed thoroughly with her grandparents.

In short, life is swimming along.
