Our doggo is going to have such a hard time once in-laws leave. He’s bonded with them so much and fact that they are at home all day while we peasants have to do RTO means he’s basically become their chela. Heck he even accompanies them to their room to take an afternoon nap with them. It’s the most cute thing ever to see as the parents go for a nap, so does he and will not come back down until one of ’em wakes up and heads down.

A is out with her parents at outlet mall to get some India shopping done. I told the kid not to go, but she did – and now she is bored out of her mind while A and fam spend more than a hour inside a single shop. Yes kid, that was why your mom did not want me to accompany because I would be getting antsy too and I’d rather them shop in peace. Sometimes your dad is right and you should listen kid!

My in-laws are here for another 3 weekends and they will be back to their hometown and I am already feeling sad about it. It’s gonna be hard adjusting back to just three of us again in the house. I am glad that A is making the best of it with them (as have I) and every time we see our parents, we have to remind ourselves that we need to make more India trips (and them, here). We have to be able to spend way more time with our parents than we do.

One of A’s close friends is moving back to India next month so it was nice to finally catch up over zoom. Desire to spend more time with aging parents coupled with the uncertain political environment prompted their move. Their kid is only 6 years old and they want to do that move now and figure out if they will like it back there or make some other plans like returning. He is at a perfect age to start school and assimilate in India and it makes sense. I hope it works out for them! We will miss them.

I hope that the flop of iPhone air doesn’t convince apple that they don’t need to make a thinner phone. If anything they need to reexamine why people are ok with heavier phone. My guess is it come back to the camera. I would buy the iPhone air with the pro camera system. They ought to get to that vision. The current iPhone pros are just about bricks at this point.
