Parents of the HS Class of 2009 (Part 1)

Update. We are loving living in the new house. Wild ducks that we feed every day. Wildlife of all stripes. So relaxing. This morning, two of ShawWife’s closest friends came over with birthday cake and we sat outside along the river with them. Hens and guinea hens came over from the farm next door. I just went out and we had 6 Muscovies, 1 American Pekin, two mallards and one unidentified duck hanging out right outside the house.

Studio is looking great. Exterior finished. Interior work is supposed to be done by end of January.

ShawD hinted to us about engagement but no announcement yet.

ShawSon very systematically did online date. Four one hour Zoom dates per weekend day and some at night. Eliminated poeple who weren’t interesting. Narrowed it down to three and one seemed especially interesting. Went from 0 to 100 in short order. Elite school grad like him including elite MBA, good career in tech industry, loves board games and is nerdy, is very pretty and surprisingly given who he has dated before is Caucasian and not Asian (the vast majority of women in the tech world seem to be Asian and he has always gone out with extremely petite, non-Caucasian women). They sem very affectionate and he seems very happy. Early days, but seems delightful on Zoom calls.
