Well, it was great to be off the grid for a while: no email, phone or other communication. The whole family was up at the cabin, and considering the cramped quarters, complete lack of privacy and number of people, we were respectful and gracious. We also had a lot of fun, and swam and canoed and barbequed our butts off. The temperature was perfect, and the weather was a gift to us. My husband and I had a wonderful early birthday party, and our kids cooked us a feast to remember. And now we're back to ordinary life, which has a lot of great moments also. Our older son took us to see Virgil Thomson's and Gertrude Stein's "Four Saints in Three Acts", and it was delightful. I've always wanted to see it. I was lucky enough to see "The Mother of Us All" at the opera house a couple of years ago. I am such a fan of Thomson and Stein.
So today I'll catch us with cleaning and organizing the house, and figure out what generally needs doing, and maybe think about a movie this week. And most importantly, catch up with my friends.
