TGIF came and went
Yesterday I was in a fog as I tried to take care of the work items that remained and get back into the groove of being at home and spending time with family. The best moments are these – walking around the block with Tatjana, Loca, Heidi and Tin and seeing the bayou filling to the brim with people, animals, fowl, and fauna all enjoying their space on this planet.
By the end of the day, it was a quick jump on the trampoline, then a bottle on the porch for Tin with neighbors stopping by to say hello. One stopped and heard T speaking Croatian to T2 and was amazed at how he knew what she was saying. I said, “Yes it’s not enough that this little black boy was adopted by older, white lesbian mothers, but now he is being forced to learn a Slavic language.” She laughed and said, “You should be a writer.”
Ha.
Then as the daylight trickled away, it was time for both moms to sit on the front porch and end the day with a nice crisp Pinot Blanc from Alsace and a few tasty cheeses from Spain and France.
Goodnight Moon. Goodnight Bayou. Goodnight NOLA.
