Breakfast is always an adventure with Sharon... ...

We're having a good time at Mohegan (discovered they offer free internet in the room!). Haven't gambled all that much, but have been swimming, relaxing, eating and going out and exploring around the Mystic area.Another night of fun tonight!Some photos I've sent to Flickr... ...

I can't believe how much rain we've been getting.  I think we've gotten something like 5-6 inches of rain since it started on Friday.  The Charles River by us is up over its banks and it continues to rain, so I imagine that the nearby streets will be under water by the end of the day today.    Yesterday killed me.  Between opening and the time change, I just collapsed when I got home from the store.  Slept for a couple of hours, got up and did a few things and got dinner with Moe and then went back ...

It was a great day to be outside yesterday. It was in the upper 50's (maybe 60's) and the sky was a deep blue. I spent the morning working since I'm not going to get unemployment this week, but the afternoon, I spent taking a walk with Sharon. We walked from her house to Starbucks and then looped around - something over 3 miles, though I'm not exactly sure how much it was. Spent about an hour lounging in the sun at Starbucks having an iced mocha (non-fat of course!). ...

I never actually posted the final pictures of the kitchen with the cabinets and the countertop done. ...

The other day was Purim dress-up day at preschool. One of the kids came in this great astronaut outfit, and I complimented him on it and said I wished I had one too. The following dialogue ensued:Child: My safta (Hebrew for grandma) bought this ... but you have to go to a mall near you.Me: A mall near me?Child: Yes, a mall near you, and you have to go to all the stores.Me: All the stores? Even the ones that sell chocolate?Child: Yes, all the stores. And you have to get up very early and drive there. And if no ...

Looks like some more of our non-accumulating snow is falling. It's kind of weird. For the last two weeks we've had snow on and off almost every day, yet it's never snowed hard enough or been cold enough to accumulate past a dusting. I imagine by this afternoon it'll be gone. Plus the roads are just wet.Sharon joined the ranks of the unemployed this week. I ham teaching her the ways of the road. She is my grasshopper to enlighten.I did (hopefully) manage to get the issue I was having with unemployment settled. I still don't think I can really ...
