Life at the Speed of Light
Everything is happening at the speed of light. Life is a blur right now.
Two weeks ago, we found an apartment we like. That weekend, our broker called about the retail space in Grand Prairie. The landlord is agreeable to our terms.
We put the apartment on hold.
Upon performing due diligence, I decided against opening a restaurant in Grand Prairie.
So now we've found another retail space. I really like this one. But the landlord wants lots of changes to our menu because it may affect their anchor tenant's business.
My adrenaline is through the roof and out of this solar system.
Tomorrow we meet with the landlord to discuss details.

The Neverending Roller Coaster Ride
The roller coaster ride never ends. I've been house/apartment hunting all week. Someone beat me to the place I really like.
I've also been restaurant hunting. It's hard to find a good location.
Have to find a preschool for Emily too...
Yesterday, I took Chloe to Scottish Rite (Dallas) in the morning and Emily to her pediatrician (Arlington) in the afternoon. After that, I collected my phone from the repair guy and rushed to work.
Today, I continue house/apartment hunting. Haven't been able to squeeze in any workout time yet.

Updated Body Count
According to Jen, I got the body count wrong.
Gene and Kent didn't get sick. Kent wasn't here. Their wives didn't get sick.
Kimi's mom didn't get sick.
So the body count is 15, not 20.
Also, there were 3 Jens and 2 Emilys. So if the names are confusing, it's because they are.

Wow! What a ride!
The last 9 days has been a roller coaster ride on 'roids.
Feb 12, arrived from Singapore in DFW after a 26 hour flight. Jen's cousins were also visiting from Boston with their family that very day. 3 adults, 3 kids and a baby. They would stay till the 17th.
Feb 13, Jen's cousins (Ah Ping) from Oklahoma visits. 2 Adults and 2 kids. The house is going crazy. I'm having severe jet lag and Emily starts vomiting. She has the stomach flu. Emily stops vomiting in about 2 days and take a few more days to get her appetite back.
Ah Ping would leave the same day. His daughter (Jennifer) gets hit by the stomach flu after a couple of days.
Feb 14, Jen's cousin (Kimi?) and her baby (Justin) gets hit by the bug too. Jen and her niece (Jennifer) gets hit too.
Jen's other cousins (Gene & Ken) from Oklahoma visit with their wives en route to Austin. They would leave that night. They get hit too.
Feb 15, I bring Chloe to Arlington Memorial's ER at 4AM. Chloe started vomiting at 1AM. She throws up 8 times in the next 4 hours.
CJ, Kimi's other son, gets hit.
Another cousin (Kristin?) visits from Oklahoma with her family. 2 adults, 2 kids.
Feb 16, Jen's relatives visit the Fort Worth Zoo despite some of them carrying this highly contagious virus. Sherry and more relatives get hit. The toilet bowl gets worshiped like never before.
Kristin returns to Oklahoma. They get hit too. Kristin's son throws up on her fiance's (Shane) face in the car on the ride back.
By Feb 17, everyone gets hit except Jen's parents, Jen's grandma and me.
20 people got hit. 11 adults, 7 kids and 2 babies.
Jen's parents let the cousins from Boston use their room during their visit. Her parents are still sleeping on the futon downstairs. They're afraid to sleep in their own bed.
Takes a few days for things to get back to normal.
