We had plans to travel for Thanksgiving. Thankfully we were driving, because everything went pear shaped. Last weekend’s stomach bug is still lurking about, so a 9 hour drive is out of the question. Today’s post is for small thanksgivings: I’m thankful half of the family lives close enough that we can still spend the [...] Happiness is a warm sunbeam. The plan: Work a swap 24 on the transfer truck. A few quick errands on the way home, shower, meet attorney to close mortgage refinance. Pick up Beth from half day at school, spend afternoon at the science museum. Check out the newly remodeled planetarium. Home for dinner, change, then off for Daddy/daughter time at [...] Dear Beth, I promise to go back to the gym. I really do enjoy it, but life has been busy lately.

It’s over 90 degrees outside. This place is locally famous and includes the word “Barn” in its name. Little did I realize that it was an actual barn, converted to an eatery 40 years ago. It’s dark and rustic, with tiny windows and [...] I should be annoyed. It’s a holiday weekend, and I had to work a 24 Sunday instead of spending it with my family. It’s been HUMID; not hot, but wet and sticky. We wished for a good thundershower to wash the air and replace it with ozone. We never got one. It did look [...] Beth and I spent some time in Boston’s Public Garden and the Back Bay today. She loved these flowers. I find them very Seuss-ian. We strolled down Boylston Street looking for lunch. Boylston is one of Boston’s fanciest shopping districts; I see expensive stores and well-dressed crowds. Beth stopped suddenly and pointed up. ”Look, [...] |
