ANOTHER FRIDAY...AND ANOTHER NY TRIP

*sigh* You'd think I would love my trips to New York but really, I work longer hours and it's absolutely all work and no play. I'm dreading this trip but I know I will get through it.

On a much better note, I'm so happy to report that my dear brother-in-law Henry is going back to work on Monday! He's been so incredibly anxious to return since he stopped working 7 months ago. I'm so happy for him! I know it will bring some normalcy back into their lives as a family. So that's great news part 1.

Part 2 is that everything continues to go well with my sister's pregnancy. After her 3 hour glucose exam, they determined that she did not have gestational diabetes. She is also being monitored by her doctor very closely which I am very happy about. Before you know it, the newest addition to our family will be here. I can't wait!

These two things are the reasons I will be extremely grateful this coming Thanksgiving. It's been a very tough year but I do see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Back to blogging when I'm back from New York in one week! Have a great weekend!

Have a great time in NYC! Some day, we need to exchange notes on where you eat there!

Great news about Henry. I'm sure it will lift his spirits to get back to a normal routine.

Great news about your sister, too.

Sorry about your trip. Looking forward to your posts when you return.

Yay for all the good family news.

Can you take aN extra day in New York at the end of the work period, or are you just dying to get home after a long trip?

Fantastic news about your family! So glad to hear that things are on the upswing for everyone :)

Have fun in NYC! Do you get any time at all to get to see the city and have fun? It seems a shame to go all the way out there with no hope for that.

Yay! on both counts. I know how nice it is to have some normalcy for Henry and am glad to hear your sisters pregnancy is going well. I'll keep both of them in my thoughts. Have a nice time in NY, try to take some time for yourself. :)
