In case you were wondering
That last post brought some people out of the paneling and into the comments! Some delurkers. Some new readers. Some old friends. Thanks so much for your kind words, and apologies for not responding. I was away…I took a cheap flight to MA to surprise my mother for her birthday (which is actually tomorrow). My awesome sister had the idea to get a bunch of broads together for drinks and dinner on Saturday night to celebrate and my terribly handsome brother joined us, as did dear Cathy.
So yummy and a great mix of people. A whirlwind of a visit and right back to Ohio to bang my head against the cubicle wall.
"In summer we live out of doors, and have only impulses and feelings, which are all for action, and must wait commonly for the stillness and longer nights of autumn and winter before any thought will subside; we are sensible that behind the rustling leaves, and the stacks of grain, and the bare clusters of the grape, there is the field of a wholly new life, which no man has lived; that even this earth was made for more mysterious and nobler inhabitants than men and women. In the hues of October sunsets, we see the portals to other mansions than those which we occupy."
~Henry David Thoreau

Been missing you lady. It’s been, what, a few days? I’m glad you had a good trip.

So happy for you! It’s a fond wish of mine to be able to just hop back to Boston for a weekend. I’ve been flight-planning today and adding five hours on either end is just … tedious.
Hell to the yeah that you made it.
