Fall of 2011

Time has flown by since the last time I updated. We enjoyed my uncle's visit and went on a number of picnics. Pishi and I hired a personal trainer since August and we have been working with weights since then. It's amazing the feeling after each session. I feel more energized. I try to go to swimming once or twice a week on top of that and have started a Zumba class last week. The best part of all of these activities is that they are available in our apartment and I don't need to go outside to use the facilities. I am working hard on my goal of becoming fit before Jan 2012.

We had an FDA visit where this time I played a bigger role in the inspection. I was in the war room and was asked to talk to inspector on the activities of the team and reports. She had a number of questions which I was able to put together the asnwers for.

Thanks giving weekend was great. With a group of friends we went to a cottege in Muskoka. The weather was amazing, we canoed and hiked in the 6 Mile lake Provencial park.

It seems, this year is the year of babies! 2 of my close friends (B and M) are pregnant! It is exciting times. What I have learned so far is that just preparing for pregnany is a full time job!! From getting your body prepared, finding a doctor/midwife to preparing for the arrival of the baby (i.e. Preparing the baby room, the cloth, bed and baby proofing the home..etc). For a smooth ride a detail planning is required. Most probably I will start with all of those Q1 of 2012.

For this year though, we are planning for a relaxing vacation begining of December. I can't wait for a week of sun, swimming, reading and absolute freedom! I think we should also think about babymoon!
