I loved reading aviblog (is that right?) during the time period you were doing that.  That was one of your sweetest, yet most creative ventures if you ask me. His school sounds wonderful, I'm glad to hear he's doing so well...and growing so tall. You must've taught him to eat his vegetables (Firefox is telling me that must've is not a word...but to hell with Firefox.)

We talked briefly about your weight loss and your life these days. Again, I'm very impressed with your new healthier life style, as well as the fact you've been making more time for your family.  Michael and I have been dating for two years now, and we recently got into a pretty big rut.  We sat down and talked and really reevaluated our lives together and our relationship, and decided that we love each other and want to continue our relationship.  Since then we've been working harder to spend more time together and not let our busy lives get in the way so much.  Sometimes you just need to realize what's most important, I guess.

Congratulations to your dad, my dad got married in May at the younger age of 51. Nothing wrong with a fully grown blended family!

Yup -- aviblog was the site.  We're doing the same thing on Twitter occasionally -- you can see some words of wisdom from him at http://twitter.com/avischuschein .

And congrats to your dad as well!
