A quick summary of what’s been going on:

  • Sister got married this past weekend. Family came to U.S. for the ceremony and I played host for about a week.
  • Cat sitting my sister’s cat, Commander Shepard (Yes, that is what they named her), and even though I’m allergic to cats, I am still doing it because I love my sister.
  • Finally found out that I could use my lunch time at work to start working on some design work that I wanted to do, but never found the motivation after work (as long as their personal and not for profit/business).
  • Wifey got an iPad, courtesy of my dad, and she’s enjoying it.
  • I’m thinking about getting a new Macbook Pro/Air/iMac/not too sure. I gave my old one to my brother-in-law who would have better use for it as a birthday present. Old one was a Core 2 Duo 17″ pre-unibody MacbookPro.
  • Designed a WordPress template (based upon another template framework) for work and got some good response to it. I’m definitely coming together as a better designer ^_^
  • Loosing the weight I gained when family visited.

It was definitely great to see a few of my families again after quite some time. I’d definitely like to travel back more often if possible, but that’s just one of those things that won’t happen as often as I’d like it. Maybe it’s for the better, for someone with a positive attitude, I’m sure there’s bound to be a positive explanation.

Halloween is coming fast, Thanksgiving next, and Christmas soon after… with so many more occasions and a little over 2 months left in this year, it definitely has been a year with great growth.
