The Greatest Gift of Aaaallllllll...

Getting the kids to take a photo with me!

Birthday Brunch with the fam, then we dropped At off at college and Nu and I got into pajamas at AT LUNCH TIME and watched Zindagi Milegi Na Dobaara on Amazon Prime (recommended!) while Aaron and the puppies took naps.

And so it Begins... Birthday gifts from afar come a-tricklin' in

Up the road from us...

Even people faraway--in India (dad) and the people who sold us their house (WA) have been calling and emailing to ask if we're ok... We are. (As much as one can be under what feels like circumstances of constant siege.)

O no, not again!

 

 I was beginning to get used to temperatures in the 40's. And I guess it wasn't just me. Both Z and I were late to our coffee date this morning because  we didn't have our coats on us at school drop off and had to go home to grab them.

And I arrived at Chapelure mad as hell mad as well, after I received some intense criticism feedback from Big A on a piece I'd written... I didn't realize until I read it again that--in my hurry--I'd skipped over the supportive and constructive parts to focus on the corrective comments. There's a message in there. Somewhere.
