Musings of a Texas Gal in NYC
I figured if Fred Wilson can blog about his musings on being a VC in New York, I can blog about my musings on being an Austin, Texas based entrepreneur visiting New York. I’m still here and will blog more about my trip when I return next week, but I have to say it’s been fantastic!
I made tons of great connections at the Working Mother Multi-Cultural Women Conference I attended and I believe many of them will prove mutually rewarding.
I have also been able to help my cousin with her new, very cute baby by taking ‘big brother’ to the park, distracting him from time to time, feeding him dinner sometimes, doing a few dishes, and holding the baby sometimes so she could rest. It is great hanging out with her and my aunt. We have also been catching up on all the family news and drinking a lot of red wine. My aunt is a brave woman because she watched all four of us kids for several summers when we were growing up.
I know those first weeks that a baby is home can feel isolating and I remember it was always nice to have someone I felt comfortable with around to talk to. Hopefully my cousin feels the same and I was sufficiently helpful. Since my aunt is here also it’s been easier to help out plus she’s a great cook. 
All in all a good trip! More details to follow…
