I feel much exited to be writing from the "Isla del Encanto" (Island of Enchantment). This is how we call the island of Puerto Rico. I needed some time off from the office environment and wanted to present the "newest addition" on my family to my relatives in the island (my son is already 11 months, so is not that new). Even though I am still "working", it is very relaxing to be sitting at a Starbucks, and just be here near the beach. Mostly the week will be spent at going from house to house so that everyone can meet my son. I am proud and very thankful to God to give me this opportunity even if it is almost when he turns 1 year old.

You see, my son had to go through open heart surgery at the age of 4 months. Even after a month old, we knew he had to go through this surgery. So as parents those were the worst months we could go through. It was close to winter time and since our son could get sick very easily, we could not leave the house with him (honestly, I am not kidding). For four months, I was the only one who left the house to work (2 jobs). Then on w/e, my mom in law came to my house to baby-sit, while we did grocery shopping. It was a nightmare. Everytime my son started coughing, or sneezing, we waited to see if we needed to go to a hospital or not.

Thank God, everything went well during the surgery. After that, we needed to wait until my son was strong enough to be able to fly. So here we are. This w/e, we rented a villa in the southeast side of the island. We will stay very close to the beach. So close that you will get out of the door and be right there at the shore :)

Anyway during this time, I have no access to  my Xbox. So no COD4 for a week. According to some rumors, Valve will be making a huge announcement regarding team fortress 2; so you might imagine how my nerves are acting up. I cant stop drinking coffee and cant stop going to the bathroom :). I am thinking they will be saying something about DLC after release. Not sure.....CANT WAIT!!!

So, it felt good writing for a bit. Now I need to go back and do some real work. To all that read this, thanks for taking the time. For the rest, HAPPY GAMING!!!

Glad to hear that your son is doing so well that you and your family were able to get away and see all the friends and relatives. It must have been an exciting time!
