QT with family is important

Because I doubt all my readers care about wedding planning I am going to attempt to blog about it separately, which could very well be recipe for disaster.

I was thinking that blogging specifically about the wedding is almost a digital scrapbook. But it's hard enough to keep up O-M-G with "frequent" posts. I will try, even if no one ever reads the wedding blog!

So, my cousin Haley is up in New Foundland visiting my grandparents where they spend their summers. While cold summer weather, wildlife and nature in general are not my thing, I am a little jealous. I think my grandfather's story about Haley patiently walking a 3 mi hike with him really struck me. I would love to do that with him, even if I'd complain about bugs the whole time.

Where does the time go? I used to spend a lot of time with my grandparents as a kid. My grandpa had me developing photos in the dark room when I was 8 years old. He taught me how to use a bandsaw to make furniture for my doll house. Pretty darn cool. Then I got older and now I'm lucky to share a martini and dinner with them.

Today's lesson would be to cherish all the time you get to spend with your family, or at least be able to look back and remember all the good and not the bad.

Enough cheese. I haven't gone soft, don't worry. In fact, I am on my way to work and all I can think is how busy I am there and how Sarah is going to have to hold me back from jumping off the 19th floor today! Wish me (her) luck!

Oh! I got an apt yayyyy! But my old one hasn't rented yet boooooo! Please let me know if you know anyone looking for a one bedroom apartment in the Boston area!

Gosh, it's nice to think that the things we did years ago are so well remembered. We'll share that martini in Sept....or wine if you prefer.
