Took care of bills, held my mail, and had fun with Sarah, but neglecting my posting. Something’s gotta give…

    Hi, I read your horoscope today: “You are as versitile as Silly Putty. Your’re not only able to lift whatever image or lingo you’re pressed against, but you’re also able to be formed and bounced into whichever situation seems fun to play.”
    I though it was a positive note and wanted to pass it along.
    I went to a Kosher cooking class at the DCJCC - the woman was from Stamford, small world!
    Ben came over to watch the debate last night, I thought it was a little boring.
    How are the US financial woes playing out in India? Are your investments ok?
    Glad to hear you got your bills paid!
    I look for an email everyday - write when you can.
    Love,
    Mom

    Hi mom,

    I went ahead and published your comment for everyone to see, but if you want to just send it to me in the future, you can use email.

    I hope I am being as flexible as silly putty - it certainly doesn’t feel that way right now. Especially hard to adjust to is having staff to cook, clean, attempt to carry things for you, and drive you places. Sounds nice, but it ends up being frustrating much more often than not (except cleaning my room - that is wonderful and someone could do it every day for the rest of my life so far as I’m concerned).

    Honestly, I feel so helpless being unable to get anywhere without a driver, and I’m frequently frustrated that I have to depend on someone else and plan with someone else the next time I’ll leave the house. I think that this frustration often comes across to the drivers, even when they can’t understand anything I’m saying (or perhaps especially then). I keep having to remind myself this is a learning experience. Everyone is so sweet, so eager to please, so desirous of avoiding friction, and very often quite difficult to understand or be understood by.

    I need to write a whole post on this, so I’ll add more details and turn this into a post, but I thought I’d say thanks for the kind words and “I can only aspire to that” about the horoscope.

    I’ll send more personal stuff in email, but I’m not too terribly worried about the economic situation - though maybe I should be. Just kicking myself a bit for not doing further diversification when I thought some of my investments were higher than what I thought they would be (not pointing any fingers here…).

    Love,

    Charlie
