Once again, I decided agains the chod. It is a very loud ceremony after all. Crows are being heard. The day is lovely and hubby's mood is great right now. Thank God and Buddha!

I should send an email to my mother. I got a call from her and she sounded very weak and frail and a bit down. I dont know when she called though as I just heard it last night. Both hubby and I were so stressed out when he left for New Zealand. I thought something would happen to make him not leave until the end...It was a surprise when he hopped in the cab finally. The rest of the two weeks were phenomenal and very very nice. Om mani peme hung

I just spoke to my mother for 20 minutes very nice. We talked about our Halloween souvenirs. Mom still makes two small bags of candies every year with the kids names on them for the two  only young kids left  in the hood at home.
