I had my alarm set for 9:00, but woke up, and got up, at 8:30. Breakfast is served out on the deck here from 8:00-10:30. I grabbed my laptop, and went out there to enjoy it. There were two other people out there, a guy at each of two different tables. I took the other. … Read more
I was up at 7, and after a SSS, had a bowl of Honey Smacks and two slices of Portuguese sweet bread toast for breakfast. Aunt Annette fixed me two ham and cheese sandwiches and gave me a snack package of Fig Newtons and two Lorna Doone Shortbread Cookies “to go.” She drove me back … Read more
I love this place. 45 Breezy Lake Drive, Coventry, RI I say this every time I come up here. Because it’s true. A long, glorious sleep made its way to me, and I welcomed it with open arms and closed eyes, for ten restful hours. Awakening, I looked out my bedroom window to the view … Read more

In anticipation of Robert’s arrival this afternoon from NYC and having seen Wicked, while I worked out, … Read more
I worked from home today. I finished Jim’s final edit, and I canceled my one-on-one meeting with my manager, with both of us agreeing that it was unnecessary today. I went to the gym late in the afternoon, in time to finish up my routine for Free Pizza Monday. It was good to get back … Read more
Joe’s cable guy called me at about 8:40 this morning to meet him over at Joe’s new house “in 20 minutes.” We got it all taken care of, only bothering Joe by phone twice, in the wee hours of his morning in Vegas. And, yes, the cable guy was hot. I stopped by the State Employees … Read more
