Rejuvenating
It has been almost a week now that I have been in Thailand. R and I are back in Phuket, where I have been mostly sleeping, reading and watching movies. 😀 We are staying at a pretty nice place, despite the ongoing construction. It is called Kata Ocean View Residences, which is up on the…

Happy 4th of July
In my family, we used to always celebrate the 4th by having a large family picnic or BBQ. I am not always here during this time of year, but since I was home, it was nice to bring some tradition back. We had a potluck and shared some tasty beverages whilst briefly catching up. Although…

Cipralex in Action
This past week was a rather busy one and thus I did not write too much. Yesterday in particular was not a great day from the beginning , but gave me a bit of a jolt to recognize that after about seven weeks on Cipralex, it does seem to be working. 1. Life dramas –…

Mixed Reality Check
This morning I chatted with my supervisor. It was both good and not so good, but not necessarily bad. The good is that I am making good progress and understanding better what I am doing. 🙂 The not so good is that I will probably not finish in 2013 and need to refocus my outcome…
