What memory do I want to keep from today?

2012:
Tomorrow is mom's cataract surgery, so I stopped by to see her before going home. I munched on bunch of snacks while mom and Kalpu worked on the dinner (for tonight and tomorrow night since tomorrow is Kalpu's late day).

2013:
Dropped off JK at the airport for NY at 4am. Avni had Girl Scout meeting at 7-8 and Neil had Patrol Leader meeting for Boy Scout at the same time - 7-8. I thought about asking Pooja to pick up Avni at 8, but she had to attend a meeting for her school project at 7:30. Neil's meeting was on other side of the town, about 10-15 minutes drive from where Avni's meeting was. So, I ended up dropping Neil off first, then dropped off Avni (about 15 minutes late into the meeting!). Then, I stopped by at Costco to fill up gas and headed to pick up Neil. I had asked Neil to be out about 5 minutes early so that Avni doesn't have to wait too long for us. But he couldn't leave early. He came out exactly at 8, so as soon as he got in the car, we took off for Avni. We got text from Avni at 8:02 asking, "How much longer?" lol We got there at 8:11. I was relaxed about Avni because I knew Melanie was going to be there and she would be ok waiting for me for few minutes, specially when I had a legit reason for running late. It all worked out just fine!

2018:
JK to Neil: You have your sisters, your mom and me ordering you around. Don't you feel anger sometimes?
Neil: Being angry is waste of time. It doesn't solve anything!

So much wisdom! May he continue with this kind of wisdom!
