Compressing Monday into Tuesday
So Labor Day is a ruse because actually Tuesday is Monday squared. Good gracious. Summer’s over and work got out the gate like a house on fire. But I just wanted a couple of things today and they happened so despite the fact that it was nonstop go starting at 5AM, the end result was a nice day.
Late in the afternoon I went to pick up Jake from school – I haven’t seen him in two weeks. He came running down the stairs and leapt into my arms and I kissed him all over. A world without children is pretty sparse – who would want to live without the joy they bring into your life. “Ocho?” – yes Jake – “I missed you while you were in Turkey.” Oh my, I missed you too, honey.
