Postcards from Motherland: September 2009
http://postcardsfrommotherland.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 30, 2009. Probably a little incoherent. This post has all the potential for either being rambling or shockingly brief, but almost undoubtedly will be a mess. But the house is quiet, and I should digest the homemade bean-and-cheese burrito I just devoured before I fall into bed and pass out from utter exhaustion, so here's a new post. Enjoy! Too bad that will never happen. Sharp departure, and abrupt change of subject! We're buying a house! Intellectually, theoretically, I know that t...

Thursday, July 16, 2009. Our fabulous photographer, Nicole, came out to our place again last Saturday. Here's a sneak preview of three of the photos:. Http:/ nicolescarborough.blogspot.com/. As of this moment (7/16/09), Kid A is the most recent blog entry; within a day or two, you may have to scroll down (or search) to see the pics. The entry is dated 7/15/09. Don't you just want to eat her up? She is so cute :) Nice outfit too :). August 16, 2009 at 2:09 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Postcards from Motherland: Warning: From Icky to Sappy
http://postcardsfrommotherland.blogspot.com/2009/07/warning-from-icky-to-sappy.html
Saturday, July 18, 2009. Warning: From Icky to Sappy. Two hours later (10 pm), it happened again. Fortunately, she didn't throw up as much, and we hadn't dressed her after the second stripping, so from clean up to back down was much faster (this time, though, it got in her hair, which . ew). Sick barfy babies are quite a mess! I remember when Kai and Phoenix both got the flu and threw up all over their beds, one right after the other a few times during the day and into the night. Yuck! And baby makes 3.

Postcards from Motherland: September 2008
http://postcardsfrommotherland.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 28, 2008. Here are some recent pics of Kid A, including the adorable bath photos . I'm pretty new at posting photos, so I'm going to play with the layouts a bit. She's not quite 10 weeks old in this photo, but as you can see, she loves to look into the mirror at the beginning of the bath. The grins are incredible. Tonight's smiles were even better than these, but, alas, no camera. Just as well. And this is three minutes later. Oh, it's hard to be a baby. Friday, September 26, 2008.

Postcards from Motherland: December 2008
http://postcardsfrommotherland.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 19, 2008. O Holy Pink Slip. What a week. On Wednesday, I was officially laid off. It's now Friday, and soon I will be getting ready to go to a countywide "After the Layoff" workshop with who knows how many other people. If I don't get a chance to post again until after the holidays, Happy Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Solstice, Happy Kwanzaa, and a Happy, Jolly Good New Year to all! Tuesday, December 9, 2008. The Board of Supervisors of my county voted. Saturday, December 6, 2008.

Postcards from Motherland: Autumn installment
http://postcardsfrommotherland.blogspot.com/2009/11/autumn-installment.html
Tuesday, November 24, 2009. I have a sore throat and am feeling generally run-down, so I came home early from work today. I've come off a recent stretch of working an awful lot, and I'm grateful, in a way, for the little bug I'm fighting off: I think I need the down time. I wrote what follows in an email to a good friend of mine; I think it does a nice job of crystallizing what's up with me of late. Enjoy the cheater's blog entry! There are several other things that are treating me well these days, prima...

Postcards from Motherland: November 2008
http://postcardsfrommotherland.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 30, 2008. Yesterday and today we spent at my mom's house. My mom invited TM's parents and grandparents, as well as my brother (who again brought his roommate - Hi, Peter! Thanks for the terrific bruschetta! To spend the afternoon with us on Saturday, and again, a lovely time was had by all. Kid A is TM's grandparents' fifth. It's quite nice to be able to feed Kid A without having to sequester myself, or drag out the hooter hider. End up with a head cold! Sunday, November 23, 2008. I am a...

Postcards from Motherland: January 2009
http://postcardsfrommotherland.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 5, 2009. At any rate, I've been really busy, even after the layoff. My first week of unemployment flew by, because I scheduled lots and lots of things for myself. This week is shaping up to be a bit mellower, but I've written a long list of projects for my down time. There's no way I'll be able to get to all of them:. Scan, organize, and put away photos (probably a 4-hour project, once I have all the supplies I need). Organize the bathroom cabinets and drawers. Kid A update: she's eating!

Postcards from Motherland: October 2008
http://postcardsfrommotherland.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, October 26, 2008. This was not the photo I had intended to put up when I promised a couple of days ago to post photos, but a) it's too cute, and b) it was easy. I still haven't had a chance to upload the photos I took of Kid A last weekend, but I really really hope to do so soon. This is the group that is the closest thing I have to a mom's group, and so it's always wonderful to be with them. It's also always wonderful to have an excuse to get back to Berkeley and Oakland!
