- giving blood,
- serving breakfast at the local soup kitchen,
- going to campus talks,
- reading Spanish stories and attending class,
- attending a meet-and-greet party with a friend,
- going to the theater to see Something Rotten, and
- visiting the art gallery where a friend is displaying aMAZing quilts she's made.
Me: Aw, you cooked brown rice instead of white rice. You must really love me.Him: We're out of white rice.
Meanwhile in NYC ... the show last night was fantastic! And in true Io fashion, I made a friend Emily had the seat next to me and if she lived closer than California I think we would be friends for real
(PS the toy soldier is holding my sock-in-progress)
And then after the show I went to the stage door and got to (briefly) meet Daniel Radcliffe
Instead of taking a self with him or having him sign my program, I asked him to hold my sock (you know, like I do)
He was lovely (and it's blurry because my hands were shaking) |
He certainly seemed surprised by it, so I'd assume it's a pretty rare occurrence
K: Pupcorn, puppachino's, dog treats, puppy chow and a farewell Wynnie sign. Treats for goodbye presents:)
Oh ya, and pupperoni and cheese bones |
K: Something small. Gotta make it fun for the kiddos. They're going to miss her so much.
Gosling: Can Wynnie come back for visits?
K: I hope so! She was fun :)
And speaking of dogs, Prewash enjoys her time on the porch during these warm days. She continues to have quite a fan club: sometimes people will call her name from half a block away, there are two different bearded men who make a point of sweet talking her and getting dog kisses, there are a host of children who ask for cheerios (which I keep on the porch) to feed to her, and the college students make a point of walking down our block on their way into and out of the city so they can pet her while she wiggles her whole body at them. It's quite nice having such a goodwill ambassador in the house.Achild will miss her most, which is why I wanted to throw a party. Figured if we ended on a fun note, it might help. She was really attached to Wynnie. Maybe when (or, if... big IF) things settle down we can add a pup but NOT now hah
And that's the early October news from our family, which continues to be wealthy in our adventures. May you and yours be similarly prosperous.
