Congratulate me !!

SJS · 13-05-2008, 09:48 PM

I am starting this thread so that all of us who have good news at home, work etc to share can do so in one place.

I am also doing it because I am very happy. My younger son who lives in Chicago has found the girl he wants to marry. Tentatively the wedding will be in November this year.

We are thrilled !!

Your son has good taste. If things don't work out with him and her, let me know...

Anyhoo, my good news which I mentioned last week is that I start a new job next week in another city - and I start moving tomorrow.

I agree - though I must take some credit for it.

I chose the girl and asked him to come to Bombay and meet her. He did despite initial reluctance to anything remotely like an 'outsider-nudged-arrangement', they seemed to hit off from the beginning, took their time over several meetings over six months and rest is the good news.

Congrats on your job.

I had another big news about a month back when my new (post retirement) apartment got ready (my first real self owned home having lived in company owned accomodations for thirty years) and we moved in.
