New York state of mind….or is it denial

So the plane trip was not bad until we were about 15 minutes out and then the pilot said that there was severe wind turbulence at 8000 feet so we rocked and rolled for the next 10 minutes before we finally touched down. Then we sat on the runway for almost an hour because they…

So today is Friday and so we have three days to go. We have been piling all of the kiddo’s stuff on the dining room table. Tomorrow we will start packing.  I have been so shut down about this for over a week and today it is getting too real. I went to Restorative Yoga…

Gulp…5 days

Get ready to be blown away by the utter yawn fest you are about to read. We are five days out and today is a cold blustery day. Getting geared up for the cold…not. Shit, they say the highs will be around 30 and the lows 20…I think I mentioned that before.   I have the…

Circle of life

Today we ventured into another new era. The boy finally got a job. Thank goodness that expensive prep school education paid off. He got a job as a floater in a coffee shop..LOL…I am just kidding. It is just a job to keep him busy until he heads off to college in February. I am…
