The cousins have been safely carted back to Miami care of American Airlines – AA called from Atlanta to catch up and said she’s joined a Loser Lesbian club and surprisingly enough there are a lot of losers out there so she has been meeting a lot of new people. She was calling from one new friend’s house.
Meanwhile, my niece called and I called her back as she was driving back to college – she wants advice – I just want to make sure I give her the right kind. But as AA said, just being there for her is enough.
I took a long bike ride this morning that was blessedly overcast and cooler than it has been – today I was at one with my bike – having a great time – that guy in Marin knew what he was doing when he paired me with this Cannondale road bike – it fits me perfectly.
A visit to Mom after dropping K&E at the airport – she looked beautiful wearing a green silk lounging outfit – but she wouldn’t budge – wouldn’t go see Abby – her agoraphobia is sometimes beyond the pale.
I told AA that K was gone and so some progress had slowed – and she said smartly – he’s not the only carpenter – he is easy to replace – and I said thanks, you echo’d my own conclusion.
S called from SF – he’s going to Costa Rica with his father for dad/son bonding trip – an eco-tourist type of trip – okay, I’ve got to say this – this is a trip he would have never gone on when we were married, and the type of trip that I love. Just goes to show you.
Working this afternoon since I’ll be in Dallas all next week. The rain and dark stormy sky are conducive to getting my ducks in a row. Quack.
